alright, i just got back from a drift practice night and something weird was happenin.

i have an R32 gts-t with hicas still connected.

after a while, the steering would get heavier and then if i wanted to turn in more mid drift the steering was like driving a truck. after i stopped i noticed that the powersteering resevoir was leaking from the lid and that it was incredibly hot.

3 other of my friends have the same problen with fluid leaking, but no one elses steering gets heavy.

i went back out after i changed my tires and the powersteering is fine, and really light again.

will the powersteering stop workin if the fluid gets too hot?

and has anyone else had the same problem with fluid leaking out of the resevoir.

      High temp brake fluid?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      RBF660 doesn't meet DOT5.1 as it is too thick. DOT5.1 has a very low viscosity requirement compared to DOT3 or 4. (Dot5.1 must be half as "thick" as DOT4)   It would also be a big indicator for anyone using that fluid in extremely cold weather to possibly look to swap for something in the DOT5.1 range.

      Thoughts on this .. G35-1050 pulsar result

      Here is as close as we got to a direct comparison(3 vs 4inch exhaust), a tickle more boost, which I am sure was in part due to the exhaust.  Made 790 on more boost.

      They work on really anything track related now. They do my mates r35 gtr and it's a weapon of a car.

      I use the penrite 600f in my cars and have had no issues even at Townsville v8s when I drove that but I bled fluid end of day for just in case. Good value and a about 38-40 on sale. Use castrol srf on the supercars and no need to Bleed brakes over a race weekend. Do the 1000km with no issues. Over 120 a bottle I seen at repco. A quality brake pad is always a good starting point the ebc stuff I've seen let go after 2 sessions with heavier cars. I'd be going to a decent track pad and maybe those porsche air guides on the control arm to help with some air over the rotor. Helps on 86/brz with stock callipers.
