Team3S: Strut problems or ECS problems?
***This is the NEW Team3S list.
See message end for more info.***
I was having the potential strut
problems with my 94 3000gt SL where the
car
seemed to be bottoming
out (at 66,000 miles): I believe this may be strut
related
and
not something loose up in the front end (I put it on the rack a couple
of
days
ago and wiggled the steering linkage but didn't find anything loose, and
I
loosened and retightened the lug nuts to 90 ft-lbs): the symptoms are
like
there
is no cushioning in the front like you might expect on a
subzero
temperature
day before your car's steering/suspension linkage gets
warmed/lubed up from
moving. BUT, when I pushed in the ECS button
while it was still cold, it
seemed
to not be noticeable, but maybe that
was just because the whole suspension
as
a whole is stiffer in Sport
mode? Maybe I need to drive one of these cars
with
the ECS in
and off to see if the symptoms are the same as mine. Anyone
in
Houston want to go for a ride?

Well, neat but, to be honest the GT PRO y-pipe is much better.
Great
aluminum, perfect done and even the same price as AAM. As Shania Twain
says
: That don't impresses me much.

No offense here ... did you see Mike's ? I don't remember seen any
pics or
even detailed comparisions (transition, diameter etc ...) to be able
to tell
which one is better ... also I believe Mike did something about the
90 bend
to a smoother one didn't you Mike ? heheh ... I'll extrude hone mine
...
WOOHOOOOOOOO

Team3S: NA intake upgrade.
***This is the NEW Team3S list. See message
end for more info.***
All this talk of new Y-pipes has me wondering.
Is anybody going to step up
and fabricate a smooth intake for the NA cars?
What about a pipe that will
allow the K&N to hang down in the intercooler
spot in the front bumper. Any
takers on a project like that? If so, and you
are close to central Fl. I'd
be willing to let my car be the model for such a
project.

To be honest Roger I am a little confused by your
comment. You say the
GT Pro one is better, why? You are always
displaying cold hard numbers
to the list to back up your statements but I see
none this time. I see
not much difference between GT Pro's and Alamo's
where as Mike at AAM has
developed something new and different. Show me
some facts if you want to
have someone believe your statement AND before you
belittle another
persons product.
AAM works damn hard on developing
fast 3000GT's/Stealth's and they have
actually run the times to prove it
where as Brian's customers are
"gentlemen racers and don't go to the
track" or maybe just can't run the
times because the GT Pro y-pipe isn't
as good.
