Yeah like Tyler said, the steering extension is an issue theres like a minimum length that you need to have or else it wont work if you're going the route by adding another u joint. The smallest ive been able to get away with is a 3.5" subframe drop. Im running a 4" right now in my black r50. The biggest issue is having people buy them. Ive managed to fix the flaws that ive encountered with lifts ive built.

K heres the run down with the VG powered R50s. XE and LE models came with 4.3s if they had the auto. SE's came with 4.6s all around because they had the bigger tire size. Manual trans VG pathys depending on if it was an XE or SE came with either 4.3s or 4.6s. Pretty much if it came with the stock tire size of a 265/70R15 it had 4.6s and if it came with a stock tire size of 235/70R15 then it came with 4.3s. Its 3 am and im tired.

All VQ powered R50s came with 4.3 gears. I'm alex........

Well hopefully I can find some 4.6 gears and swap those in and see what it does with the power/MPG thing with my r50 since im running the 33s. Im hopeing that'll put it back around stock.

In my 02 with a a 5 speed and 33s i average like 19 hwy and 15 city. lol. When it was stock it was getting almost 350 miles a tank.

R50s are unibody for the 1,000,001th time haha.

Just FYI, the VQ powered r50s dont have an LSV in the rear.

Seafoam the intake and see if anything changes.

The auto takes 9 quarts. Your tcase is pretty much fill til it comes out. I think the best way to do a flush is through the cooler lines. Ive done it this way before and it works great! just get a couple of clean 5gal buckets.

I have a set of 1" strut spacers for sale if anyone is interested. Just pm me. Need to get rid of these.

Titan ones might work but are expensive r51s wont because of the bolt pattern.

With the AC coils, they are stiff enough to have control on the road that you can ditch your sway bars. I didnt have any on my white r50 and i removed both on my black one. I actually like it better. But thats just me.

Someone should try swapping in some wd21 rear discs onto an r50. Everything should be exactly the same and bolt up if you just swap out the axle shaft for the r50 33 spline unit. As far as having it bolt up. you'd need custom brake lines and ebrake cables obviously.

Im sure the late late model r50s have the button to pop the rear glass. I know the Qx4s come with it standard. In my opinion i like the tilt steering wheel column more then just the tilt wheel. This is just me but i'd rather have the whole column move up and down then just the steering wheel it makes it more comfortable. for me at least. I always like the wheel angled

No you should be fine. As long as your tires dont rub on the inside of your wheel wells.

Id say for the average person who knows what they're doing. 3 hours.

It doesnt look too bad. Just remove the radiator and fan and drivebelts and take off the two covers, rotate the crank back 20 degrees to loosen the tchain around the water pump then replace the pump.

Yes diameter... i was writing this at like 2 am my time lol.

I wonder if the extra inch in rotor circumference that the VQ r50s have over the VG r50s make that big of a difference. I have the stock pads still but just replaced my rotors with some duralast 33 dollar ones and I can engage my abs and lock up the tires (if wanted) and im running 33 bfg km2s.

Water pump bearings? Mine makes a little bit of noise too but not as much as yours.

The part number you need for the warn hubs will be # 29091 and depending on what wheels you have the hubs may or may not fit your stock wheels.

im very sarcastic. Wasnt trying to offend anyone..... guess i have one of those have to meet me to know me personalites

everyone shutup. Silverstars are awesome. I cant believe someone would think that they are not brighter then stock bulbs. I saw a HUGE difference.

The QX4s with HIDs from the factory came with this setting. Its so awesome.

my 02 pathy has 107k miles on it and it doesnt appear to burn any oil. I changed the oil to full synth when i bought it probably a month ago now and the oil is still purple (royal purple ftw)
