The way I see it, I'll give you a direction to go in based on my experience, and after that, you can get out there and figure it out your damn self, which is exactly how I learned almost everything I know. By beating my damn head against the wall doing research and trial-and-error testing until I found and fixed my own problem. I didnt have anybody to hold my hand while learning this ****, which is why I am fairly knowledgeable today.
When you bought that computer from me you were quite the talker on the phone (not that I didn't enjoy it).

Also Sonik has been always nice to me, with the exception of finally shipping me some s5 trim and all the sidemarkers (HINT BITCH).

dDub you can be uber if you beleive.

Live and Learn.

Don't sweat the small stuff.

From failure comes knowledge.

If at first you don't succeed, try try again....

i got the front rotor to build to 86-87 and the rear rotor to build to 92-93

and the engine has only 20 mins of idle time on it.. i would say this is the one that will be good

lol, yea dustin, make sure there is no intake leaks it took me like 30 minutes to convince you to check for one, and you found it lol

i dont mind helping anyone, i was a n00b once too, and i asked a lot of questions.
if it pisses you off that much to help people you shouldnt publish your aim s/n, or your email. but whatever, do what you like.

usually after you post them it is too late to take back. i have made that mistake before too, until you have people hassling you all day long then you probably don't understand how annoying it can be when you just want to have some time without everyone bum rushing you.

He needs to actually drive the car, though, to get some load on it to get those seals reseated since he took them out and put them back in. We'll see how it progresses.

Just figured I asked, since he's kind of hyped them up before. But yeah, I don't believe there's anything else he could've done wrong since he's learned just about everything not to do!

One question though, are you still using used side seal springs?

IF you used the same apex seals and rotorhousings, and oriented the seals vs. the housings the same as they were when you tore it down, compression should be pretty much the same as before. Perhaps the few psi difference is due to the slightly tighter clearances on the side seals.

Yikes. Those RA springs flat out suck! (pun intended). The damn things flatten out so quickly it's a wonder why they even keep selling them.
