    How To: Install Short Shifter

    From what I remember, yes, the heat shield is bolted onto the body.

    How To: Install Short Shifter

    Heat shield was no problem either.... When I installed my Kartboy, all I did was pull(bend) the heat shield a bit to clear the shifter. No real problem. From what I remember, the heat shield is secured by 4 screws - you can add washers with longer screws thereby lowering the shield to clear...

    How To: Install Short Shifter

    Boot: I have a Kartboy shifter - it was my fist mod - and it looks great with the stock boot. Never felt the need to adjust the size - it looks really nice. The stock shifter was ridiculously long - any short throw shifter is a necessity for a Pro! (My god - the post is 10 pages????)

    Alignment help

    Hmmm If the alignment tech gives you the spec sheet and everything is in spec, then that would eliminated anything bent in the suspension. Put on the stock rims and tires, if they are available, and check how the car drives. Have you tried a different brand of tire? Have you inspected all...

    Alignment help

    Nope, still pulls Yeah, mine still pulls to the right - I've kind of gotten used to it by now, but it's till annoying. With the stock Dunlops, the car never pulled, and when I first installed my set of Faulkens, the car drove straight - then I noticed that thing just started to drift to the...

    Alignment help

    I do trust this alignment guy - he is the one Rishie sent me to when he installed my Tockicos and Espilar springs. He drove the car and said he could feel the pull but only at higher speeds. I just got the feeling its the Falkens - just the nature of those tires. But, I have not had a...

    Alignment help

    Well, I have been on the forums searching this topic for 2 days. Basically, I have a 2002 P5. About a year ago I had Espilar springs and Tockico Blues installed by the man himself: Rishie at Auto RnD. A few months later I got my rims....from Rishie of course! Enkie RPF1s 16x7 on Falkens...

    Espelirs/HPs quiet the ride

    I've heard.... Oh yeah, a front one would be cool too but I've heard that to install the front sway bar is pretty involved. You have to remove all sorts of s**t to get to it. It just seemed like too much work. The rear alone was suggested by Rishie because I have a daily driver and the ease...

    Espelirs/HPs quiet the ride

    I have this set up too.... I've got this set up too.....also, Rishie and Micheal intalled them for me!! YeeHa! Those guys did it in about 2hrs. I mean taking the whole back end apart(interior) and putting that s**t back together with 4 struts and springs. The ride is perfect for a daily...

    Great Thread.... Thanks GhostLinker, What brand/make of rims do you have (Pix?) and: How did you roll back your fenders? I'm thinking of the Rota Attacks which are actually 17x7.5 @ +48. Some posts say they rub, some don't - I guess it's just luck(??). Since this is a wheel thread, has...

    Thanks.... bonesmp5, thanks. I actually had that tire calc. thingy bookmarked but didn't know they did the calculation for you at the bottom. That's cool. So, it depends on the tire - which makes sense. I'm gonna have to go into Auto RnD and talk with Rishie to get the skinny on which tire...

    215/45s v. 215/40s Thread jack....kinda..... This has been a real good post for me. I'm in the market for some rims - I'm thinking of the Rota Attacks - 17x7.5 @ +48offset. What I really want to know is what size tire....215/45/17 or 215/40/17s? I know that the 40s are closest to the stock...
