hey guys picked up my new car on thursday its a 95, 2jzgte powered aristo, has mild mods, coilovers, exhaust, aftermarket sidemount intercooler, oilcooler, pod, 18's, blitz boost controller (currently off as its already making 1 bar), and i hav a few dumb questions for ya.
1. my front tyres hav scrubbed out really bad on the inside is there anything the tyres normally scrub against?
2. in the boot near the top of the struts theres 2 electrical plugs, what do these plug into? electronic suspention that used to be there? coz one of them sounds like its shorting out or sumthing, is there a switch that would control it if it was there?
3. the degogger for the mirrors, wat does it actually do, makes a strange sound when you push the button
4. im currently running 1 bar of boost, is this safe? can i turn on the boost controller and wind in some more or is that about the safe limit
5. were can i get a lsd and what sorta price would i be looking at?
im sure ill find more stuff i wana know but that will do for now
2) Electronic struts, got more firm when auto is in power mode, your car must have aftermarket suspension.
3) Piezo shakes the drops off the mirror
4) That figure is fine, however with tuning it isn't so much the boost level but more so that the rest of the tune is okay, but I doubt you'd have issues near that, if you want more you will need to do something to get around the boost cut
5) See if anybody has one on here for sale, if you can't find one locally then www.importmonster.com.au

1. The ground..... camber is out due to coilies i would say.
2. ECT button, it used to connect to the stock suspension. Makes damper harder.
3. It shakes off the water
4. 1 bar is safe for overall. Dont go too much more than that 18psi max on stocka turbz
5. LSD, can be found here. Have a look in the car part section. Price will vary though. ~500 i would say.
just remember if your winding your boost there is no point without tune, you will feel like its faster, but just wait... the day you get it off the dyno its a whole other level
with the tyres its not the road it looks as if its been rubbing on sumthing as its not i nice clean wear its like its been notched out.... good to know boost level is safe, will be gettin it tuned wen funds permit
aristo: it does hav aftermarket suspention tein coilovers.

Fog lights - some compliance places cut them, take the bar off and re-wire them if thats the case.
Headlights sucking - check the trader section for HID lights, his kits are very good, massive improvement. _________________

Wheels look tuff.
Also, just noticed, this is the most informative I think we have ever been, without being jerks. Someone better fix the trend, we might get a reputation for being nice. _________________
