RE: JDM JZA80 in the Alps
Okay, long time since the last update, there wasn't much to report on.
I had some trouble with the transmission, making grinding noises and otherwise unpleasant noise. I was wondering if I had damaged it in the installation process due to first running it with the wrong weight oil for about 15min. To ensure that it wasn't an install issue, I took it down to confirm alignment (it was spot on already) and filled it up with the correct oil. Unfortunately the noise was still there, but I decided to take it for a ride anyways. Turns out I'm just not used to the noise coming from a Tremec with a single mass flywheel - one of the instructors at the drift event once had a track-built Mustang with the same setup, he confirmed it sounds the way it should. That means I've successfully finished the swap, the car drives absolutely fantastic. Indexing with index plate and micrometer: ![]() ![]() Going sideways: ![]() ![]() Bonus, labelling all the things: ![]() ![]() Now I'm out of budget for a while, but the car's finally parked in a garage. I'll continue with downpipe and Swiss paperwork sometime in the future. |
