Went to dyno, but didn't go well... power loss from HKS camshafts!

Damn CJ, I don't see nothing but blackness. The intercooler is pretty big and it is black. The only other thing I can think of in that area is the tow hook. I get to look at the car everyday and that's all I see, though the intercooler is not as black anymore.

good, at least im not insane.

im on a crappy monitor at work and i can barely see it at all now too, but it looks like its hanging too low to be a tow hook.

it looks almost like a pipe or something covered with the shiny type heat-wrap.

maybe i am insane. i should start listening to the gnomes that steal my orange.

Well, three things hang low enough that you're able to see them from this angle and those are the oil pan, down pipe, and transmission and they do hang pretty low. I now see a shiny dot just to the right of the spot you marked. Those have since been rectified as the motor mounts were upgraded and they help lift the engine and transmission up 2 inches, so that I can stop wearing out those expensive custom axles (inner). Trying to get my car, the CA powered B13 and Overboosted180's car ready for Moroso later this month is pain. Overboosted's car is nearly ready and I don't think anything is hanging from his car as of yet. The B13 sentra is coming along pretty good and I expect ignition within a day or so and though my car is mechanically ready, my ecu is still in canada at racetec getting upgrades to include the wide band feature, so my car will be last to hit the road, less stuff sitting too low !
