gtstcoupe, another question for you or anyone else that has superstreets...

With the dampening adjustment, if u get lost as to what setting ur at, how the hell do u know how to get it back to say setting 1(soft) or 16 (Hard)... the dial just likes to keep on clicking.. :laugh:

Ahh you will find that 16 stage is not 16 clicks there is about 20 clicks of travel in it and it just stops when you get to the end of it.

If lose count, just go bak to softest untillit stops and then count back or vise versa.

Ohh i use 3 clicks btw

Cheers :laugh:

mine are aus spec.. currently set at 10 clicks back from hrdest setting and still a softer , more confrotable ride then stock, with next to no body roll and not bump or harsh at all....

10 / 10 here for teins..

Based on street use though, not sure how they would be on the track under more extreme conditions!.....

ok while your talking about it

which way is which - is it like the old HA's where full clockwise is stiff and anti clockwise soft?

just picked up a car with the aus specs and need to loosen the rear

Well i got monoflex but yes its anti clockwise to soften and clockwise to harden. i can't see why they would swap one model around :)

They don't just keep clicking guys. turn them anti clockwise until they stop. you are at zero. Count up from there.

The manual on the aus model super streets does state that it's 16 clicks, to go any further is doing potential damage (or words to that effect).

Id say they would be referring to people "forcing" them to click any further. But there are more clicks than 16. As i think has already been stated its around 20.

No wasnt say i dont belive you, but , if it wasnt ment to go only so far you would think it would just stop, but what your saying does make sense.

I tested out the click wheel on one shock before i put them in the car and thats when i discovered it went more than 16 clicks, and i have them at 3 clicks from softest in the car. :D,BHdave,i will definatly keep that in mind. :sick: ,Be interesting tho to seeif jap spec are differnt to aus, as i know aus has different valveing?

Teins FTW :D

Thanks Mate

      Carb issues - E15S

      By GregosM10 · Posted

      Based off what you’ve said here, I think I’ve figured out a good bit of what I’ve done wrong -  So on the line going from the PCV valve to carbon canister, there’s a T joint that is pretty much right next to that lower port - I hadn’t noticed that the hose in the diagram was curved to attach onto the carb, so I was putting that line for the lower port onto the PCV line / carbon canister line instead. I’m going to have a flick through the manual again tomorrow and should hopefully find a diagram that’ll show me where that T joint should be connected to. Timing also 100% needs to be sorted out as well, should be able to tackle that tomorrow as well. Definitely feel like I should be on the right track now though.

      Carb issues - E15S

      By dbm7 · Posted

      The screw is for idle (pilot circuit) mixture adjustment. Else, I'm confused ~ the diagram shows 2 carby ports, and the intake manifold port, but you're suggesting the "2nd port on the back of the carb that isn’t mentioned in the diagrams" ...yet, both carby ports are shown...que?... ...in any event, that port should be connected, but if not (like it is now), it's unlikely to cause a backfire out the carby (it would introduce false air and give you a fast/lean idle) ...sounds more like timing issues/spark plug wire routing responsible for the backfiring.

      That's fair, I can see both points. I get enthusiastic when I see the FS section has a new post and want to see what interesting thing someone is selling. Then I get deflated it's a bump of a 10 year old post. Ha ha
