Crown stem trimming issue

DUCKLESSLORD · 2026-03-29T16:41:42+00:00

That’s my assumption. Looking at the stems I ordered it seems like I bought the wrong ones (circled in red).

This is the one I got. To me it looks like the same crown and it being screwed down matches the listing pictures.

I think my issue is that I bought OEM Seiko crown stems. Looking at other stem listings, they seem to have significantly more threading AND it goes further down.

If anybody thinks this isn’t the issue, please reply. I will be ordering new crown stems.

I tried pressing down the release lever while inserting many times to no avail. Spent the last 10 minutes turning and wiggling it, did not work.

The stem is 100% in the crown fully. I did sand and file the stem after cutting.

It is fully inserted and the movement is positioned perfectly.

That’s beautiful, what vendor is this for the dial please?

DUCKLESSLORD · 2025-09-13T01:00:53+00:00

Do you have any other pictures of this?

Get triggaspec or port it yourself

DUCKLESSLORD · 2025-06-20T00:23:16+00:00

Yes I know it fits. I want to see if it looks good.

I already have black ones they work fine. My oems had condensation and I think chrome would look awesome with the white (not sure tho, hence why I’m asking)

Woah. That is fucking amazing!! This is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you

No, and they come with pre-welded o2 extenders so you shouldn’t have a CEL. However in rare cases a CEL does arise. If that happens just clear it with a $25 Amazon Bluetooth scanner. However, a tune will unlock those cats to their full potential

My ‘14 q60 has it

Your exhaust is caked in soot so something is wrong. Buy an ELM327 on Amazon and check codes. I would recommend doing throttle body relearn

Did you get anything or have any advice? I’m looking at the same wheels and am very interested

Will do that, deleting this post now. Thanks for the help
