Re: Ryan's TE31
Hey man, I was wondering if you were thinking about putting spacer's on the rear wheels. I haven't seen it done, but with the front sticking out a little farther than the back I was curious what your thoughts were on putting 8mm spacers in the rear.
This isn't a thread jack right? It does pertain to your car and your car's wheels.

Ya. I like the te31's too. I have another gill like mine. I can paint it different and switch it out or something.Fujimoto wrote:love it ! lucky you work at the good place to build your parts ! i have a 4 door TE31 , love it ! they seemed to have a couple of different front grills and crests tought ... nice buy !
Your fine, this isn't a thread jack. I am not sure about using spacers. I think the gaps will be more noticeable when I lower it. At that point I will see if I will need them.loquendo wrote:Hey man, I was wondering if you were thinking about putting spacer's on the rear wheels.

Re: Ryan's TE31
I have completed my seat swap (about time). These seats feel like lazy-boy recliners. I had to take apart the sliding mechanism to make it work and then modified it some more to make the seat belts fit and work properly. It would of probably been easier to build my own form scratch. Fitment is perfect:
I noticed my floors were wet after I arrived at work. the heater core sprang a leak and soaked my carpet on both sides with coolant. I was wondering why my coolant level was a little low. I took out the carpet and padding to avoid mold /corrosion issues. I have also bypassed the heater until I find another heater core.
I also cleaned up my freeway flyer diff. It's my S374 (3.583 ratio one). I cleaned up all the gears and painted the outside. I think I will put this behind my automatic until I have the space to do my 5 speed swap. all my stuff is buried in storage, so i have to wait on that. This thing will be a gutless wonder with a stock 2tc and an auto with high gearing.
I took the smog pump off my car. Now it doesn't make that whine in the engine compartment -YES! I have been enjoying driving the car, and it gets a lot of attention.
