We use that on some of our race-spec NISMO 370Z's... It should hold up

WHO'S INSTALLED THE WAVETRAC AND WHAT DO YOU THINK SO FAR?

I'll start it off. Before the car would squirm rolling on the throttle in 2nd. but now the back end is shooting to the left and this has me perplexed. I seem to remember my brothers 396 Nova doing the same thing ... The weather is not ideal, it's cold and damp. Maybe I just have more power with this cold front? Maybe pulling the differential threw the alignment way, way off? Tomorrow I'll be looking for an empty parking lot to see if I'm putting down 2 stripes or not. Maybe the shop broke the thing and didn't say a word? 6th alignment of the year on Saturday. Somebody calm my nerves ..... Who has it installed and what's you car doing?

Les

the rear needs an alignment after the diff is reinstalled les. the inner control arms have adjustments that are lost when the bolts are removed so realignment is needed

32, I gotta go agin ya, there is not an alignment proceedure in the crossfire section and I did my own phantomgrip noting no alignment components.

You may have some as you car may also have struts on the front end, all different. I have noticed that were not an slk, just sorta cause were with spring front end.

Iam off to carlisle, and this year the dual inlet is on show as I finally got it to work - much to my satisfaction. See u guyz there, Woody.

By the way Iam at a B+B rather than the hotel and its noise....
Boiling springs is one of the nicest lakes I have seen, and if your up there visit it its free and close to the event.

Bring bread for the ducks , youll love that too.

BTW I am going to the south mountain drags friday night and then to the williams grove track to see outlaws run. THat there is some good stuff. Youll recognize me there, Iam the one with the ear covers in the crowd of thousand deaf people.

Lots to do in the evenings of carlisle.

Woody

SUNDAY TORTURE TEST IS CANCELED BECAUSE OF FLOODING! The track is under water.

Oh well, that means I can make the drag rental on Saturday night. So another type of test will be performed. Every other Wednesday the go-kart track is open for practice so I'll try and attend if the track dries out.
