can you run a 18x9.5 +12 in the rear with -4.5 camber without a pull? just a roll?

so if i dont use the automatic brake booster..will there be a difference in the pedal feel? will it be more firmer without the brake booster? In another word will it be necessary to use the brake booster? FYI..my setup will be 30mm 300zx up front and stock rear brakes with the altima rotors/z31 bracket? if that will have answering my questions..

I have a 1" MC on my S14 manual brake booster. From what I have read, the automatic brake booster will give a bit firmer feel. However, it is just fine to run it on a manual brake booster.

And yes, use the brake booster.

Find a shop equipped to completely drain the system of r12. Then, they will recharge it with 134. There will probably be a nice conversion/disposal fee.

NO NO NO NO NO NO NO and NO!!!! I mean you can if you want, but every screw hole you put in your car just creates another hotbed for rust. You are probably in Cali so maybe not that big of deal. Or, the car is a pile and you don't care.

I have ZERO rocker rust and plan to keep it that way. I am going to two-sided tape the hell out of them. Get the good two-sided tape (3M from autobody store) if you go that route. Another member on here said he taped his successfully and has no issues. Removed and reinstalled and still good.

What are the "no signs"? If your stock gauge reads in its normal spot, take that with a grain of salt. They are known to be off. Is you system properly bled? Are both hoses hot when your temp gauge is reading hot? How hot is hot?

To get better help, you have to give better info.

240Z28 · 05-05-2010, 08:50 AM

gotcha.. I'll observe and report later today

Right under the center of the exhaust manifold. It may be dirty so wipe around and look for it.

d0pe240 · 05-05-2010, 06:58 PM

to adjust camber, you spin the middle (biggest nut)? is this the correct way to set up ruca? or does the heim joint thread part needs to come in more?

which side of the toe arm do i adjust? do the one futherest away or the one close up?

ESmorz · 05-05-2010, 07:00 PM
