Subject: RE: Team3S: Here's what's up with GAB shocks/struts:

Hi Barry,

   When I discussed my strut problem with the east coast sales rep. for KYB,
he told me that the struts/shocks I owned were the only ones which they sold
for my car.  He made no mention of GAB shocks.
In addition, when I spoke to a rep. at Wings West, who used to be one of the
only GAB distributers on the west coast, he made no mention of the fact that
KYB makes GAB.
In addition, if KYB makes GAB, then why are GAB only available through
import from Japan?

I, too, had been under the impression that KYB did make GAB, but I am pretty
certain that they do not.

If KYB makes GAB, then it is only in the most "technical" sense.  That is,
KYB may own GAB, or GAB has agreed to produce shocks/struts in Japan and
market them under a KYB label (it certainly is not the other way around).

Regards,
   Dennis

This is not surprising.  He may simply want to sell GABs.  There may be a
higher marging involved.  He also (perhaps obviously) may well have not
known.  Also, GABs were sometimes hard to track down even when the
distributor was in full operation.

Many or most of these people do not know or simply do not want to sell the
lower line.  There are also economic factors to consider.  GAB are sold as
premium items.  KYB is sold as an economy item.  In some cases they may well
be nearly if not the same piece, although this is not the case with the VR4
GAB struts vs the KYB offering.  The GABs are far superior in this
application.

> In addition, if KYB makes GAB, then why are GAB only available through

Marketting and economics most likely.  GAB is GAB and AFIK a Japanese
company.  KYB is KYB -- Korean based I believe.

> I, too, had been under the impression that KYB did make GAB, but
> I am pretty certain that they do not.

This should be (un?)common knowledge actually.  As a case in point, recall
last year when GAB threatened to sue KYB for fabricating and selling a GAB
design.  Supposedly the patent ran out on a particular GAB design.  KYB
decided they would manufacture this design and sell it themselves under
their own name at a considerably lower price than GAB.  GAB eventually
forced KYB to cease production and distribution, but only after the first
run(s) were on the market.

That is why I stated "makes" and not "owns".  There are only literally a few
fabrication facilities throughout the world for struts and shocks.  KYB
makes OE struts and shocks for a huge number of resellers, GAB being one of
them.  KYB fabricates at least some of the GAB lineup, but does not own GAB.

Charles,

Go to the web site http://www.pie.net/catsec12.htm

They have the cable that you need.  I couldn't find a local dealer so I
called the home office on the phone and they found a dealer who took credit
card orders over the phone.  They are a friendly group of people.

The exact cable is at this address http://www.pie.net/oemappl.htm#mits

Hope this helps.

>>> After my engine rebuild and new clutch I started to feel what I
thought was clutch slip almost immediately under load.  Now, the more I
think about it, I am entertaining the possibility that it could be bad
wires or plugs making the engine stutter under load and I am mis-reading
it as clutch slip.  Is this possible, or do I need to have my clutch
looked at...?<<<
- -----------------snip------------

Hey, Travis,

To eliminate whether or not your clutch is slipping, do this simple
test:

With the E-brake on, put the car in 2nd gear at idle, and s-l-o-w-l-y
let out the clutch pedal...

If the car stalls, the clutch is fine.

If the car sort of "jumps" a few times and then dies, the plate is
warped.

If the car keeps going with the clutch out fully, the clutch is
slipping, and needs 'serious' adjustment or replacement.

Best,

Forrest

Not that complicated, easier than others but it is now made of two devices,
control and logical unit. The harness needs some connections to the ECU
harness, not a lot but more than the standard DSBC.

First remove the speed governor. I once heard of a relatively easy mod on
that but cannot remember where it was. You may try GTO UK on that topic. The
iD has an AUTO and manual mode (later like the DSBC) . The first sets
itselfs up upon the manual settings and adjusts them.

No problem, I should have them pretty soon on stock.

> 4) I want it NOW NOW NOW :)

Are you prepared to pay more than for every other boost controller ... ok !
But, not really NOW.

> Any advice appreciated.

Yes, get the normal Blitz DSBC as the iD does look odd alone and only with
the Power Meter the combo is complete ! Another £££ issue !

Subject: Team3S: how to improve brakes&tires

Hello!

I'm driving '95 Base (sorry no ABS... :(  3000GT  just for few days. I'm
very happy but I have some questions:

1. How to improve brakes in my car. I seriously feel fading when they are
getting hot. Change discs, pads?

2. I'm using winter alloys/tires 225/55/16, should I buy 17" alloys/tires
for regular street sommer driving and if what size?
  


thanks for suggestions

The reduce 'compliance' in the braking system.

Compliance is the stretch in the lines and seals that happens when braking
pressure is applied.

The less the system complies..the more responsive the brakes feel..makeing
YOU feel more connected to them.  (Less squishy feeling).

Or just change pad material to Carbon composition such as Porterfield R4S to
increase the

Hi



>> Japanese import and restricted to 112mph.... Less than redline in 3rd.

To remove the speed limiter on Jap spec cars, snip the speed sensor wire at
the ECU, I think it's pin 66, at least for 1st gen. Mine's a '93, nothing
else is effected. Nothing worse than hitting the speed limiter when racing
Skylines.

       I was wondering if anyone could tell me the best place to order Eibach
springs for our cars I have a '94 base 3000 GT and I find so many different
prices. I was just wondering who had the best price and the most reliable
service.  Also has anyone ever looked into aftermarket ignition systems.  I
see them talked about all the time with other imports would they even be
worth it for ours?  Thanks for your help!

Michael

CarParts has a decent price on the Eibach Pro kit (#2813.140) for the base
3000GT.  With my 15% off coupon, they'd be $226 plus shipping.  I always
have some kind of discounts for CarParts.  My discounts are at:

Has anyone replaced the window trim strip along the door- window interface
on a TT? If so, is it an involved  undertaking or a more or less self
explanatory easy replacement?

I've done this. You need to remove the door panel (not difficult),
remove the old strip,
which is held on by some clips and a few staples, and just do the
reverse with the new
strip. The hardest part is coughing up the $30 a strip to a dealer.
