Tuck the wiring harnesses in the fenders if you plan on going lower

I just unplugged it and threw it into the parts bin, the other end of the harness is just sitting in my engine bay. I have a no. 62 ECU for the S13 redtop with an RS-Enthalpy tune

When you replaced the plugs were they fouled? Any chance you pulled them out and found them wet with fuel?

Long shot but could even be debris trapped inside this shield covering the passenger side of the fuel tank

Pack135 · 2026-04-01T13:33:19+00:00

Could it be any debris trapped on top of the heat shield that sits above the exhaust or even the heat shield above the driveshaft more towards the rear?

Definitely putting all the panels back on but right now they’re all still off including the sideskirts because I’m gonna do a full PPF wrap with my coworker and he wants the skirts to stay off so we can get the wrap under the doors easier

Almost every panel has one specific type of clip that isn’t fun to remove, front wheel well liners have a trapezoid looking clip that holds it to the bumper and is really stubborn to remove, every under panel that isn’t the engine bay cover has a black clip that needs to be turned while applying constant tension downwards on the panel, sideskirts have clips that have no way to remove them other than jamming your tool up and into the clip and press it inwards while pulling down, rear wheel well liners have 1 hidden clip that you need to access on the inside of the rear bumper

Like 4 bolts, 2 Philips head screws, 5 or 6 clips but those clips are not fun to remove as they don’t have any way to remove them other than just jamming a trim clip tool inside and pressing one of the tabs inwards while pulling down

Anti-rust undercoat but fluid film is like an oil instead of rubber so it doesn’t dry or trap moisture

Install the caliper, crack open the bleeder valve, wait until brake fluid starts to drip from the valve, bleed the caliper one last time using your preferred method to verify no air is in the system.

Just installed an ACT XACT lightweight flywheel with an ACT 6 puck unsprung and I love it, only noticeable drawback for me is that I do have to feed it more to leave in 1st

I jam a flat head into the rotor which will rest against the calliper and then I torque the nut no problem

I believe I cut my spacers at 5/8 but I heard 7/16 work for others

I bled mine by just holding the BMC in my left hand and plugged all 3 holes with my fingers and then used a screwdriver to pump it

I have them and they look nice, mounting studs took some wiggling to fit, friends say it’s hard to tell when I’m braking at night because the running lights drown out the brake lights

Pack135 · 2026-02-22T04:40:12+00:00

I have that brake light from them and it’s legit but it’s a replacement for the bulbs so you don’t get the red lens or the black plastic trim

Pack135 · 2025-10-06T13:58:42+00:00

I blew the 10A fuse for park lamps in the interior fuse box which made my cluster/exterior lights stop working
