This is just scare bait....rtv has never been the culprit of an engine failure and even if the main port gets mostly clogged there are side vents that circumvent the issue....it is right hand turns on track only running sticky tires pulling high sustained g's. I wouldnt bother dropping the pan.

+35 offset on, you run the risk in touching the fenders in the rear because it has such an aggressive offset. The sweet spot is +40

@thegreatpollo is correct, and its always nice to have the option of rotating the tires and having no issues. This way we can rotate the tires and maximize the life out of them.

Is there a method to remove a seized damper? Mine is stuck can’t get it to break loose.
@MichaelMartinez-jo4sm2 ай бұрын
The replacement is pretty straight forward. You would remove the remaining part with an 8mm wrench, or needle nose pliers. Depending on where the clicker broke, there could be the allen rod in the shaft, which a magnet or tweezers should be able to extract. Then the new part will be threaded in clockwise, and the knob secured to the adjuster with the 2mm set screw. IF you are unable to get the stuck damper out you will need to replace the WHOLE shock cartridge. This is the only way to fix this issue. Luckily fortune auto honored my warranty. Good luck!

Squeaking can happen on the front for a number of reasons, usually related to endlink adjustment issues or even some gravel stuck between the spring coil and the shock body. If you record the noise and email the clip to fortune, they can help diagnose and resolve the issue.

No evidence on any baffles helping by multiple channels putting their own cars to the test on the track. The problem has to do with oil return rate to the pan when hard cornering to the right with rpms above 5500. Baffles do zero to help. As other commenters are saying, use heavier oil on track days and overfill by .5 to 1 quart. Or corner with higher gear (sub 5k rpm), or slower pace. If you don't track the car, or drive on the streets like a maniac with track tires, you'll never have issues.

Drivers paddock did an indepth test on these engines and their advice is to just do what wrx drivers have done for the last 20 years, use 5w30-10w40 and overfill it a bit, thats all toyota does for their track 86s too. Baffle wont do a thing for oiling on the FAs, the pickup is at the bottom of a smaller pan, if its somehow not picking up oil then theres sure as hell none anywhere near that baffle lol.

how do you know the hubcentric ring size for your wheels, regardless which wheel size you choose?
@OAKOS3 ай бұрын
It is the factory specification for the hub center bore. As long as you know that for your vehicle, you can get whatever hub ring size you need for the wheel. So if a stock GR86 is 56.1mm, you would need a hub ring that is 56.1 to the wheel's center bore, which for enkei RPF1's are 73mm. So you would need a 56.1mm to 73mm hub ring.

@@OAKOS dude those baffles do not help. If you’re tracking the car it’s pretty much expected to blow up. I’ve seen extensive testing on this and work for Toyota. The rtv does not cause issues. Tampering with shit for no reason usually causes issues. High g force turns can send majority of the oil into the timing cover causing an oil pressure drop. That is when damage occurrs and a baffle will not fix that issue at all. If you track your car you should have deep pockets.
@OAKOS4 ай бұрын
Sure. While the pressure dropping is due to the high g force turns, the entire engine is sealed with way to much sealant from the factory and just cleaning the pickup and re sealing the pan is to help prevent future damage. Please go watch Misha's video.. You will see even with the Baffle, the engine failed due to RTV melting and mixing with the oil AND the high g force pressure dropping. None of it is good, and yes you should have money if you are tracking a car. Thanks for your input though.
