spudly13 Posted February 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 My 510 is not road safe yet. So, how does the L20bt feel?! I really like(ed) it, its a lot of fun to drive, and it pulls really well/spools up really quickly. I was only boosting 8-10 pounds. obviously mine and yours will be a bit different, im curious to see how you like your suck through setup! seeing your e30 makes me miss mine. i cant believe i sold it. worst mistake ever haha Yeah i enjoy driving it, in a lot of ways its very similar to a 510! I guess since you brought it up, ill post a couple more pics of it, i just got some new wheels And i finally got real people tires lol, no more bicycle tires on the 510!! 1 Quote Link to comment

Mine is a Rajay with a Cartech kit, but I'm sure you saw. Love your four door also, I think I was following you on my old Instagram. Quote Link to comment

I was running a vf-39 off an 06 Sti, yeah i saw your setup, i tried building my own suck through a while back but failed miserably! Ill probally go back to boost this summer when i start working again and can redo it all! Some pictures, this threads been pretty dead lately! Only took me months to get... i have to go back for the fronts, one of my wheel studs was stripped out Wanna be 1/2in lower overall, but im waiting to get a lower profile tire. I helped sixtyninedime (rapheal) with this a couple week ago, (door jam removal) 1 Quote Link to comment

spudly13 Posted March 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2013 in my pursuit for a more reliable better running DD i ditched the r1 carb setup, if anyones interested in that pm me for details...(carbs are only good for parts at this point) But my main reason for posting is to get ideas on whats going out in my rearend... At first it was when i would hit about 70 there was a vibration, and if you let off the gas pedal the vibration would get really bad and howl throughout the cab. now its realy bad at those speeds but even does it down into like 50 mph...So to sum it up. doing 50+ theres a little vibration, and when you let off the gas pedal (so zero acceleration) that vibration gets extremely bad... My first thought was wheel bearings, but i did one side a few months back, and they feel tight, my wheels are balanced, the dif? axles? has anyone else experienced this? Quote Link to comment
VintageRice Posted March 8, 2013 Report Share Posted March 8, 2013 Wait.......................no more R1's? Elaborate. What is the new plan? On your Q. Try swapping outs diffs for a junkyard subi one and see if it changes/improves?? Quote Link to comment
spudly13 Posted March 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2013 Wait.......................no more R1's? Elaborate. What is the new plan? On your Q. Try swapping outs diffs for a junkyard subi one and see if it changes/improves?? Not for the time being, i managed to break another float bowl tab when i was taking them apart today to try and figure out why they were starving for fuel. so i thru a different carb and mani on there an it runs like a top, electric choke to haha. like i said a couple times, im done messing with motors until i get some other stuff sorted out and fixed up, i just want it to run, and run good lol i wonder what a dif from a junkyard runs, might have to check CL, theres a subi diff in there now And does anyone know if you can buy the heater motor/fan new? or do i need to find a used one? something in the fan broke, and when its on high it makes a horredous noise, a started taking it apart and you can see it vibrate real bad on high.

spudly13 Posted March 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2013 and get this, so my starter went out, AGAIN a few days back. Okay no big deal, it has a lifetime warranty, order a new one, go in and go figure orielys didnt have my phone number on file for the starter, whatever ill pay for it, so i get it and put it in.. first drive down my road, hit a bump and it starts spinning on its own, wont turn off, have to disconnect the battery... Pissed off i order yet another starter, it comes in, i take this one out and go get that one, this time i do get it for free, however i notice as hes pulling it out of the box the wire that goes to the motor is melted. he shrugs and says its not a problem... so i go home and what do you know... it doesnt work... just goes to show you that you get what you pay for and i guess theres a reson they have to offer a lifetime warranty Quote Link to comment
Laecaon Posted March 8, 2013 Report Share Posted March 8, 2013 Since I have been on this forum, oriellys and autozone parts have been universally bad. I have seen a lot of bad starters from oriellys. Just get another from the jy and if that goes out ever, take it to a rebuild shop. Quote Link to comment
