Dude, you should always disconnect the battery when working with the electrical system. Also, go to AutoZone and get a thing called "add a fuse." This will add an additional fuse in line with the stock one and it has a power wire already connected to it. Just run your gauge power wire to it and you're done. There is no need to splice into your stock wiring. And I hope you did not just jam the open wire into the fuse

 

^maybe something is loose

 

Hi Yadi

Got alignment yesterday and here are the results:

Front
Camber: -1.4
Caster: 7.5
Toe: basically 0

Rear
Camber: -2.0
Toe: .10 (we ran out of adjustment)

Car feels great and still very easy to get oversteer...it's a 240 after all

 

lmfao pero con AC

doesn't ur tire wear go down plenty by going negative??

 

No AC I'm ripping out all the AC crap because it's more frustrating than anything. We got it to work for about 3 days and then it died again. By removing the compressor, bracket, lines, condenser, dryer, and evaporator I should loose about ~35+ lbs of weight. Good, now I don't have to loose 10 lbs

Uneven tire wear is related to toe settings more than anything. On the WRX, I ran -2.5 front camber all the time and pushed it -3.2 for autox. If your toe is as close to 0 as possible on all four corners, then you should be fine up to -2.5 camber, possible more.

 

Any meets soon?

I have one, April 18th, Moroso.


Here are the full details.

We will all meet at Moroso Motorsports at 5PM. You are welcome to show up later but for good staging if you plan on racing try to be there early.

The boys from SU Headquarters will be joining us! This is your
chance to put faces to the names of people on the forums
and to the guys who make it all happen.

We will be caravaning up from Miami and picking up people at rest stops so that the caravan grows. Feel free to PM me if you have questions.

The caravan will leave Miami at 3PM. We will all meet up at Tropical Park at 2:30. Gas up and get on the palmetto by 3:00. We will take the Palmetto (826) to I-75N to the Sawgrass Expressway to the Turnpike North.

It is 20$ to race and 13$ to watch.

Here are some rules:
- You must wear long pants and at least a t-shirt. No tank tops
- No open tow shoes
- 13.99 or quicker must have SNELL 2000 OR 2005 (you can rent em at the track for like 10 or 15$ max - I think it was 5$)
- Roll Bar for someone running 11.00-11.50
- If under 18 must have a waiver signed by parent or guardian

You can pick up an NHRA rule book in the tower at the track for $10

We look forward to seeing all of you out here! It should be a great time!

What about this weekend at Moroso? Who's going?

 

How much is it to go and to see if I have the cash I will go Sunday since most people from here are going Sunday.

 

exactly, i didnt splice into the wiring, i did it as a temp solution until i get the gauge 100% functional, i was having a couple of problems with it, but it was mainly a leak i belive, i have to see if its all good and then ill redo the install (whats left)... i started soldering the cables lastnite ive read lots of threads already about the addafuse, but i didnt want to solder all the wires and then have to re-do them again and again until i get it working

 

well yeah, after all ive read so far theres:
-a fuse
-a cable is loose and its grounding on chassis
-wires(~leads?) on cable might be sticking out and touching metal

the good news is my WB gauge seemd to be working 99% accurate, and i should get it checked for accuracy this afternoon after work

 

Sooner the better, I'm down to go every sunday =-)

 

With the car or Rudy ?

 

lol

 

I plan on going this weekend to Nopi down there with some CFL evos...anyone have a intentions to go both days and know any ideas for a place for us to crash at night... We will buy the beer... Mack

 

no Idea google the place and hotels nearby. I can't go this weekend as i hope to but work has me tied up
