here is a picture I took, Jelly beans here we come
From what I can guess ( because I am just not that good) the new wheels are plus 25mm off set, I do know that they are 14x6 which should add 6.5mm of track.[/img]

Funny you should mention that because as of next Thursday, I will be getting a set of Pedders Springs to bring the body 2 inches closer to the ground, with this upgrade I am also purchasing VL shockers for the rear.
For those wondering the Monroe part number is 15-3137+ . The only mod to fitting these shockers is trimming the crush tube a couple of mm.

Posted: Fri Jul 04, 2008 7:53 pm
na they are shorter or less travel i cant remember anymore i looked into using them in my exa but i found some that bolt strait in that are 60 mm shorter in the body they stiffend up the back heaps

The VL shocker is 27mm shorter which is particularly more suitable for lowering 2 inches then a standard shocker.

Well I did a full service since having the Exa on the road, and lets just say it runs much better then before.
I am now also some $200 down in funds as a result, with the most costly pieces from Nissan, being the dizzy cap and rotor.
With a bottle of Redline Oil's injector cleaner and the car runs like a million dollars.
I can beat Commodores again YAY!!!

its well worth it. i paid $40 bucks for a second hand blinker lever from the wreckers... I was also tempted to buy a new one from nissan... but they were asking $270 and that wasnt even the full unit. i also paid $70 for an idle adjustment and new BOV spring once before... i could of almost done it myself with buying 2 cases of beer and a springTBON12 wrote:...$200 down in funds as a result ....I can beat Commodores again YAY!!!

Cheers,

Well the subs are out now, too much weight for me, I have sold the subs to my brother who is putting them into two different cars. In return I have began to weld brackets to mount the sub and amp securely in the car, I will try and get pictures soon.

Ok so the audio rack has been on hold for this week.
I have had some problems with general running.
- Earlier this week I change injectors and did the valve clearances.
- Wednesday I dropped my original injectors to be cleaned and flow tested at Carby Tune & EFI Specialists - They came back all good.
- Relocated the fuel pressure regulator from under the intake manifold.
Today
- Change injectors for reconditioned ones, change O rings too as the old ones were leaking under boost and vacuum.
- I replaced the cold start sensor which locates in the Thermostat housing.
- Bought and used a recoil kit for the T25 compressor housing outlet, as one of the three was stripped of thread.
- Changed rocker cover breather and various other lines.
- Made a new turbo outlet gasket which has been bolted down and sealed with silicone.
