    Turbine Housing for FP Red with Internal Wastegate

    Hello, I purchased FP Red a while a go but never used it. It turned out that it is setup for External Waste gate since the WG flapper is removed. My question is, where can I find a turbine housing with the flapper intact? Can I just buy a TD06 8cm? I need a cheaper solution and prefers...

    why do people think there 420a eclipse/talons are worth so much

    This is old, but the topic is timeless... I think it is because the GS are good for swapping in Evo engines, and for the younger crowd, this is the way forward...

    2G Looking for 19" Wheels to Work with Evo 8 Brembo Brakes

    Thanks for your input. I cannot find the spoke design in the local market, so I will have to import from US or Japan. For that reason, I will have to be certain of the well fitness and specs before I ship, as it will be impossible to return them :). That is the dilemma...

    2G Looking for 19" Wheels to Work with Evo 8 Brembo Brakes

    Hello everyone, I need advice on which 19 inches wheels will work with the Evo 8 brakes. Currently my 2Ga has the 18" XXR 530 (18x8.75, ET33) with spacers to fit the Brembo. However, I don't want to deal with spacers anymore. Has anyone used Brembo brakes with 19" wheels and with no spacers? I...

    Sorry if I got this wrong, I think we were a bit hash to the OP. He/she may have made a wrong purchase due to being a newbie, but we should have welcome him/her and treated him/her with sensitivity given the tough journey ahead.

    2G What wheels fit with the brembo brake kit?

    I have had the XXRs (XXR 530,18x8.75, +33) for 7 years with no issues. But I had to add spacers, and lots of them, to fit in the Evo brakes. I am planning to replace the front wheels with the +20 offset version of the same 530.

    2G Installing Innovate LC-2 in rear O2

    I got a related question; is the 3 ft (5 ft total length) sensor cable length enough for our application? This is the LC-2 kit with part number 3884. I will be installing it on the rear O2 and run the cable under the car.Thanks

    Hello Brothers and Sisters. I am offered a great deal on Tein Flex Z Coilovers; brand new at half the price. My question is, are the new model good as the old ones of 10 years ago? I currently have a set which I bought 12 years ago, so I am looking for a replacement.Thanks

    A Big Gap Between Rotor and Evo Caliper

    The front Evo caliper is kinda heavy though, and I am at 360HP range (and still growing). If someone here say "they made a huge difference in acceleration", then I will get the DBA 5000 series for $650 or the Girodisc for $ 680. Otherwise, I will stick to the Centric/Stoptech Slotted and drilled.

    Thanks guys... Yes, I searched and red several, but I thought bolt-on meant bolt-on on the rears :banghead: .Anyway, I got an offer of $650 on the 17 LB Girodisc front rotors. I see TSIAWD666 has them, but I am wondering if it is worth the money, cause a set of 4 from Stoptech cost 460 shipped ...

    Alternator relocation and wiring

    Boy...there are serious issues with this mod. Sounds like people have been internalizing the pain of doing this mod for too long! Some have found a way to get to it, but with lots of pain :mad:.

    Alternator relocation and wiring

    I hope this is note off topic, but I thought, I should ask here rather than open a new thread... If you move the alternator to the back (compressor location), how do you get to it for repair work/replacement? Because I don't see how you could get to it back there without dropping the engine...

    A Big Gap Between Rotor and Evo Caliper

    I have installed Evo 8/9 on my rear brakes and noticed the caliper seats far away from the rotor. This means the pistons will have to extend by 1/2 inch before making contact with the rotor.Is this normal or my after market rotor are thinner than stock? I thought the rear caliper were bolt-on...

    Help Me Decide: CTS or Evo8/9 for Front Calipers

    Same here, but I keep loving the car even more! I have put well over $30k on it with no regrets, as well.I really would love to get hold of the 2011 Cadilac CTS-V coupe, but I cannot imagine how it will be to baby-sit the CTS.

    I feel you. But damn $2,500 for brakes that is true love:dsm: I too do not plan to sell my car, for which i have own since 1999! I am leaning towards the Evo calipers cause I can use my 12.5" AEM rotors

    Help Me Decide: CTS or Evo8/9 for Front Calipers

    That is an expensive route though (Knuckles, BB, calipers, rotors), but I guess it is a good idea to upgraded a 15 years old car. What size rotors did you use with the Evo X?

    Help Me Decide: CTS or Evo8/9 for Front Calipers

    2G Big brake kit

    Unfortunately, shipping is too expensive so I cannot change the tires/rims. The only option is to play with rotor selection.Come to think of it; if you consider the “Center of Mass” as the location where the mass distribution is, and where a system will spin about a given axis, then adding...

    2G Big brake kit

    That is the reason why I said I need to find lighter rotors. While the calipers are lighter, they do however, require a heavier rotor, which is also contributing to increased rotational mass. Now don't get me wrong, I prefer this mod over the Evo Brembo since the installation is much simpler...

    2G Big brake kit

    Is the weight difference between the 2g rotors (12.99 lbs) and the Cobra 20 lbs rotor an issue? I am try to get a 2-piece rotor but they are expensive. Did anybody notice the "sluggishness" or loss of performance due to the additional rotational mass after adding the Cobra rotors?
