    Swapping to 5 lug, what wheels for slicks?

    I'm going to be swapping to 5X4.5" on my LX. What wheels are cheap to mount my slicks on? I can no longer use my 10 holes... BTW, the slicks are 26X8.5 so backspacing doesn't have to be spot on.

    installation instructions for eibach drag springs

    If you bought them used, did one spring have an airbag already installed in it? If so, that's your right rear spring.

    Wiring my electric fan, will this work?

    Okay, here's how I plan to wire it (using my last diagram). I'll get the fan power (87) from the remote solenoid. The switched power (86) will come from two places. The lone temp switch I'd like to go to the remote solenoid. The manual and temp switch circuit will draw from the cigarette...

    Wiring my electric fan, will this work?

    My way seems to require less wiring. I can just grab power from inside the car and then run the ground to the relays ground when it comes into the switch. Doing it across the fan leads would require running wire for both power and ground from the engine bay. Shoot, just looked at my last...

    Wiring my electric fan, will this work?

    Okay, Idwitheld-1... is this what you were talking about? Looks like a pretty safe method to me and still gives me control until the motor gets to 200F.

    Wiring my electric fan, will this work?

    Okay, sorry, I'm an electrical idiot, but why does it matter whether I switch the positive or negative side of the relay?

    Wiring my electric fan, will this work?

    Hmmm... maybe I have the wrong relay. It's an SPST, 12V-30amp. The packaging with the relay says 87=12V In, 30=12V out, 85=ground, 86=On/Off switch. That being said Michael, my wiring should be right? The one thing I'm confused about is where the power for the relay should come from (86)...

    Wiring my electric fan, will this work?

    Okay, how does this look? The manual switch will be normally on. The fan will continue to run when the car isn't running until the temp switch cuts the circuit. I'll have to watch that the first few times to make sure it isn't an excessively long time. If it is, I'll change to key-on power...

    Wiring my electric fan, will this work?

    I want to have complete control of the fan myself with the switch, so I can leave it on in the pits without having to leave a key-on. I'll have the LED in the dash as a reminder. Will this work? Is there a better way?

    Inline fuse necessary for 3G upgrade?

    Last summer I was at a store and my car wouldn't start. A few guys pushed me and I clutch started it. Instantly my belt started squeeling like a bastard. I drove the two blocks home and shut it off. Damn starter wire burned through on my longtubes. Didn't damage the alternator though...

    35lbs a wheel, that's freaking heavy man. Two wheels and you're pushing WCB limits :rlaugh:

    size/weight

    Well, the boxes will obviously be 17"X17"X8" for two, and 17"X17"X9" for two. As for weight, if you enter in 20lbs per wheel, you should be close.

    bad ball joints, new part question

    BFH - Big F***ing Hammer. No, the bolt will not break. That is why the pickle fork is made the way it is, to go around the bolt. Besides, if you look at the suspension you'll notice that bolt is all that ties the suspension together. My guess is it's a very strong bolt. If you look at...

    Rocker Stud Girdle

    So you're doing it just for looks then? Seems like a waste of money... you'd never need a girdle on a hydraulic roller application.

    What valve cover bolts?

    I bought some allen headed set screws and some flanged nuts. Makes installing valve cover gaskets very easy. You can see the set screws in the pic...
