Bit of an odd request, but can somebody give me a rough measurement of the front end links that came with the HKS Hipermax S coilovers?
I reinstalled my stock links a few years ago after one of the HKS ones broke. I'm going to install some adjustable end links to finally get it back to the correct set up, but I lost the broken HKS ones and don't have a reference anymore and HKS won't answer their emails. Thanks!
Just finished this 9850x3D + 5080 build. All the steel panels are solid, and the wood details are high quality. Super easy to build, especially if you have a back connect motherboard.
Note with Corsair iCUE fans, the radiator bracket will partially cover the iCUE plug of the radiator fan closest to the front of the case. I just have the top front panel fan connected to the hub instead. Other people have dremeled the bracket for access, but I really don’t think it’s required.
I'm doing more track days this year and it got me thinking more about oil management. I'm currently doing my track days mostly in NorCal and most days have been 4-5 20 min sessions. I can only guesstimate since the BRZ doesn't provide exact numbers, but I haven't seen the temps go beyond ~250F on OEM 0W-20 between October-May. I also overfill.
I've done some reading and there seems to be some conflicting info on cooling needs. A lot of people swear by adding an oil cooler and I've seen a few people claiming they've done 20+ days with heavier weight oil (5W-30) and overfilling.
As for oil pressure, it looks like baffled pans (like Killer B) aren't really helping that much. I've seen a few people run an Accusump, but seems a little overkill for my needs right now.
Anyway, just wanted to see what people are doing. Thanks!
NEARLY PUT IN THE DAMN WALL HOSS. But really, lucky to avoid everything.
My goal was to be sub-2 for my first time out. I managed a 1:58.73 here, right before spinning at T10 on the next lap 😅. Lots of time left on the table since there were a bunch of 86s and BRZs under 1:55. Lucky to live near such a wonderful track!
