any idea how much it changes the track and camber?

i ask cos i recently had an LCA changed and the geometries were suspect when i went for a wheel alignment, and im wondering if i replaced a bent 33 arm that was on the car, with a 32 arm :S

got a fair bit done on the celsior today.

it now has no interior, new alpine speakers have been fitted to the original pioneer boxes in the doors, all the wiring for them has been re routed properly, none of that over through the door cards shit.

stock sub, amp and cd changer have been removed, air purifier has been removed, front doors have been prepsol'd for sound deadening, both new amps have been dummy fitted and yeah... should be done in a week or so. :)

pfffft^^^ me, never, old owner, ummmmm dirty pig= he never did it either.

maybe you should take it off and clean the inside, you might be suprised how much oil they get in them over time. It stops them cooling properly.

i just block one end with thick plastic bag and tape, and use a couple of cans of degreaser and clean a few times, then rinse very well with water, then leave in the sun till dry inside :D

    • Sorry - RB25DE Neo, as y'all likely already know.
    • Hey y'all! In the latest of my un-luck saga, I had been hearing some metal-sliding/rattling noises at lower RPM under engine load/acceleration. Originally thought it might be transmission related since that was where I'd usually shift (I live in a slow neighborhood so lots of lower-rev driving). But, upon having a mechanic hear it, it turns out that I have a detonation issue. Before I got a timing belt service, this was happening in 1500 up to 3K RPM, but post timing belt replacement it's been down to about 1700-2100. I've been doing my damnedest to keep her above 2100 for most driving - little bit more jerky but I'd rather not lose an engine over this. So far:  - replaced timing belt, timing retarded slightly as per mechanic who did the work... problem got smaller but not solved (as an aside, getting lots of belt whine and even squeal when I start her up in the mornings) - Been only using top-tier fuel available locally (91 is premium for my state in USA, since it's high altitude we get f*ed on gas quality. Been using Shell... but does have the "contains up to 10% ethanol" sticker, unsure if that's gonna be an issue and if I should seek out no-ethanol gas) - Plugs are BRAND NEW via the seller... maybe they did a bad install? RB25DE, 5MT. Glad to be able to actively control engine speed for an issue like this. Other than a bad MAF, what else could it be? Could the spark job have been a bust? Compression test came back 180 on all cylinders except one at 160... something questionable there?
