Thu, 19 Nov 2009 22:48:30 GMThello all, I just finished assembling and installing my new struts into my 3000gt sl.
They are the same stock w/ecs struts, but i'm reusing the old springs.
When I turn my wheel sharply when parked or driving I noticed a very loud sound. I had someone turn the wheel for me while I was looking at my struts and noticed that my springs were actually moving when put under load inside of the strut assembly.
I can't for the life of me figure out what's wrong with them.

Wed, 11 Nov 2009 05:18:08 GMTOk so i changed the brake pads on my 93 stealth ES about 3 months ago when I was living in Idaho. They squeaked pretty bad but stopped shortly after I came to Oregon for school & then they just stated sticking. So now when I get on the highway at 60 to drive into town there's a shake & I can feel it coming from the left front wheel. I think the squeak could have been my clips that go over & under the pads but is that enough to do all this?
If anyone has anything that could help i'd love to hear it!!!

Fri, 06 Nov 2009 04:21:40 GMTYep, searched and read most of the posts.
I have Ground Control adjustable springs with stock struts, adjustable rear control arms, and +-1.75 bolts in the front struts.
I have the Lifetime Alignment at Firestone.
I took it to the body shop to get the frame bent or straightened, they looked at it and "moved a few things around" but told me I had to take it to a shop with a 4 angle trust machine or something like that.
I have heard of people boring out the bolt holes in their struts to get more range. But I can't find a how-to on it, it's not something I want to mess up. I will try to get the alignment reports posted up soon.
My main concern is the rear toe which is eating my tires bald in 2k miles.

http://www.3si.org/forum/f41/brake-line-fitting-question-what-size-type-478396/
Thu, 05 Nov 2009 22:08:52 GMTHello, friends.
I need some expert help identifying the brake line sizes / fitting types used on NA 3s brake lines.
I'm working on a custom brake enhancement for my '94 NA Stealth, and I need to get some custom brake lines made to fit new, non-stock brake calipers. I already know what kind of fittings I need for the calipers themselves; but I don't know how to describe the fittings that connect the lines from the calipers to the intermediate strut / suspension point "hand-offs." What are these fittings called? What size are they? They look the same for front and rear lines--are they?
For reference, here's the exact fitting I need to describe--this shot's of the rear brake line connection at the suspension:
Also, would anyone happen to know the factory lengths of the lines for front / rear that run from the suspension and strut points to the calipers?
(I realize I can answer all of these questions myself by simply removing my lines and taking them as examples to the shop that's building my new lines, but it'd be a super PIA--hoping some of our resident experts might know off hand.)
Thanks very much!

The problem that I see is that it is not snugged up, about 1/2 to 3/4 away from holding the bushing to the cradle. I am wondering if I can get some PB blaster above it somehow. Is there a possible area to get some above it so it can drip down in this area? I tried to tighten and loosen last night with a cheater bar and I was afraid that I was going to break the bolt head off, which would not bee too bad because I could put a nut on but would rather correct the problem than band-aid it.
Yet another reason I am trying to get the wife to loosen the purse strings so I can get a compressor and a pneumatic impact gun.

Wed, 04 Nov 2009 23:20:06 GMTAs the title says, when I start-up the car the light comes on for a full second then goes out (sign that ABS is functioning normally according to the manual). However, if I slam on my brakes I do not feel a pulsing of the petal (more of a solid lock feel instead) and my wheels slide leaving a big tire streak on the street. I bought the car with the rotors already replaced with slotted rotors, I see the ABS is hooked up (glancing at the cable to the wheels) and my fluid level is fine. Any ideas?

Sun, 01 Nov 2009 23:15:03 GMTI just got my car back from the body shop 2 days ago and everything's great. Well minus the one issue with my steering. So when I merge or turn left, everything's smooth and quiet. When I turn or merge RIGHT, the car vibrates with a low subtle rumbling sound. The car is 100% stock. I only had the front and rear cross-members replaced at the shop. It aligned perfectly as well. Any ideas? I'm clueless on this matter.

Sun, 01 Nov 2009 17:26:25 GMTOk it seems soon I'll have a work again (after two years) and this means have again money for the car LOL, first thing to buy are coilovers. I spent last months reading all the thread about suspensions and it seems Megan became a very common choice and heard only good things about them. Anyway right now I've Tein springs and I have always been very happy about them and so I'm thinking about Tein coilovers.
What is your opinion? At last with Tein coilovers I can have also custom springs with softer spring rate while I don't think it can be made with Megan coilovers. Any reason to prefer Megan over Tein (apart the price lol).
Tnx in advance
Mario

http://www.3si.org/forum/f41/found-lower-control-arm-bushings-477868/
Fri, 30 Oct 2009 21:16:24 GMTSO as part of my son's VR-4 restoration i had the lower control arms at a machine shop to push out the front bushings and ball joints. I wanted them stripped for painting. Little did we know that mistu didn't make replacment bushings. So it was either buuy aftermarket urathane bushings for $350 a set or buy new control arms. Well since we had already blasted and painted these, plus had new ball joints installed, i didn't want to give up on them. So i went to our local NAPA store and gave the guy the dimensions of the bushing i needed. He had a listing for a pair that was only about a half inch longer than what i needed (Part no 267-3367 for starions and conquests ). so for 22 bucks i bought them. I had the machine shop press them in and then i measured them again. As you can see in the pictures, they didn't need much trimming.....i trimmed them with my grinder...a little at a time. so anyway, the pictures tell the story. Haven't driven it yet, but it should be fine.

Fri, 30 Oct 2009 14:23:13 GMTI am currently on ecs struts with Intrax springs, but my front left strut is shot. I was considering coilovers so I could get the exact drop I wanted. However, I am going to be selling my car soon so why spend $500 more that I will never see when I sell it.
My question, will getting new ECS struts and my Intrax springs bring me back up to 4x4 height? I love my drop as is now so I am scared the new struts might raise the car up too much. Anyone make the same swap and happy?
