Team3S: 275/40R17 on stock rims?
Hi all,
Yes, my autocross tires,
Yokohama 008RSII, were
mounted on my stock rims and did not rub except
a
little on the fronts in the inner rubber/plastic liner
on the engine
side when I turned hard.
Please understand these tires are for autocross
where
speeds in the parking lot site rarely gets above 50
MPH and for only
a few seconds. Ya can't put but
about 1/4 mile on the tire for each of
3 runs or maybe
a total of 3 miles for the whole autox day.
My
suspension is stock (not lowered) and there's not
much of my interior
left. Well, a lot more than Jeff
Mohler, but less than most.
I
wouldn't run 275's for road courses. On road
courses I run the Yokohama
032 255x40x17.
Be of good cheer,
John

Boris;
Check out Bob Fontana's web site...he
has some good information on
installing and setting up a VPC.
Remember...it will just be a starting
point and you may have to make
additional adjustments from there.

Hi
everyone,
Does anybody know what the best setting on an HKS VPC would be
for our
cars? Or, at least a good starting point? I've turned
down the gain
one short of being minimum and I'm still running kind of
rich. Every
now and then my check engine light turns on and it never
happened until
upgraded my injectors and installed the VPC. I know that
this is one of
the symptoms you get when you run rich. I then tried
turning it to the
lowest setting, but then the car ran too lean and it
stalled on me. If
anyone could give me a good suggestion it would be
greatly appreciated.
My current engine modifications are:
HKS
VPC
HKS Super Mega Flow Air Intake
HKS Upgraded fuel pump
Greddy 550cc
fuel injectors
Greddy Air Fuel Ratio Meter
Greddy Turbo Timer
Greddy
EGT Meters (2)
15G turbos
Blitz SS BOV
Blitz Dual SBC
NGK platinum
plugs (gapped .032")
Magnecore 8.5mm spark plug wires
Does anyone know
where the dials sould be given these mods? Or, what I
might need to
do? I'm hoping someone has some idea of what I should
do.
Thanks,
Boris

Team3S: Amplifier Install..where?
I'm working on installing a new Kicker
amplifier into my friends '94 base
3000GT. We were wondering how to
run the power cable(4 gauge). He has a
security system installed, and
they drilled through the firewall and
installed a grammet. Can we go
through that hole? Or do we need to drill
another and put in a new
grammet? Any other ideas? Thanks in advance for
the
help.
