[180sxblack]

whaaaat im from okotoks. ive seen that white silvia everywhere. is he on here?

[JRPS13]

love the 180sx, real jdm style

thanks man

i have no idea who owns the white one. all i know is he traded is diesel for it. what a douche. doesnt even know anything about the car.

anyways

my boost is spiking to about 20lbs, usually holding 15 or so. but ive got a stock headgasket.

do you think this is a huge issue?i dont feel comfortable running 20lbs with a stock HG.

i didnt get the problem until i put in my 10psi spring, on my 38mm wastegate.

any ideas?

[JRPS13]

bumpity

[Ca_Silvia]

You means its spiking to 20psi? But its tuned for 15psi? Do you have a wideband?

Turbo cars tend to spike in cold weather but 5psi is quite a bit

[JRPS13]

yup spikes to 20, falls down to 15 and holds 15 WOT.its not tuned, oem ecu, oem tune. it has a 10 psi spring in the 38mm wastegate, but shouldnt be spiking 10lbs over that.a buddy made a suggestion that my vaccum line is to big, which i can actually see as the problem.unfortunately with the weather the way it is, my car isnt moving.

[JRPS13]

so i picked up some rear z32 calipersand im wondering what i need to do to have these work on my car and stay 4 lugi know i need z32 rotors, ill order those along with new pads and have the rotors redrilledwhat else do i need to do?same for the fronts.... help

[Idahos13]

The rear hubs and front hubs.Rear hubs you can get from a z32 front hubs you will have to order from ebay or something.

Best of luck!
