Anywho, glad your coming back home.

i do it with tire mounted on the car. grabbing tire at 12 and 6 and wiggle, and tighten til there's little to no wiggle. u might find something on the net bout bearing preload.

Anybody enjoying these cool mornings and nights? BOOST baby...

Side note, ran a MR2 yesterday, we did several pulls, I would pull him up top in every gear. From a 2nd to 4th gear pull I'm guessin I had about 2-3 cars on him and pullin. He was runnin 15psi, moddified intercooler, 3" exhaust, intake, boost controller, etc. Can't underestimate those cars, it was MUCH faster than I had expected it to be.

Nice burnout. Makes me regret that I never got the chance to turbo the SA.
