Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
Nice job man! I know nate was having problems with his alternator when he was tuned before Proving Grounds....he replaced it and found that he had been running ~11.8v before and now a full 14v....his AFRs were way rich (fuel pump pumping more) to the point that he was having ignition breakup. I guess what I'm saying is, check your grounds, check your alternator, and enjoy the car!
That isn't a DSM power curve man I swear, power just goes up up up!

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
Might as well update this too. I went to the import vs. domestic race in Brainerd this weekend and ran a poor time of 12.4 @ 116 with a 1.7 60'.. While I was racing I broke a drivers side rear axle.. My buddy has videos of some of my passes and I ran against Mike in a few of them. I'm going to try and get his video camera from him and get the videos up.
I was getting locked out of 3rd gear and couldn't get into 2nd fast enough and was bogging down. I'm not used to this kind of power yet and need to get better at launching my car... I should have no problems getting into the low 11's with it but like I said before its driver error.
I'm going to post up a video of the damage soon but I don't have a socket big enough to get the axle out yet as my dads buddy has the big socket set...

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
You use NLTS? What rpm is your launch control set at?

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
Some pictures of the broken axle. I'm not going to take it apart quite yet because I'm going to take it to a shop first and let them deal with everything.

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
Ok so, I went to proven force and they took it apart to tell me that the axle is F*&KED... I figured that so today I ordered 2 of these!
http://www.thedsmgraveyard.com/produ...r2gaxlelsd.htm
I'm only going to do the one for now so that I can drive my car. I'm affraid about the axle being frozen in the hub and more problems so I will be swapping out he other side this winter.
Hopefully no more snapping axles for me

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
Might as well try WMD do them both at the same time. Then you only lose fluid once
Seem like nice axles!

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
^ no because the rear is elevated the fluid isn't coming out.. so no fluid loss on taking the one out

Re: GsXtUrBo98's 2G project thread
Fluid is cheap, fix the broken one and rip it! Back left one is the most common to break IIRC, so just get it back on the road--summer is almost over!
