    Lingering power steering problem

    Could it be the belt? Maybe when I changed radiators,I spilled antifreeze on the belt and its slipping. Joe

    Lingering power steering problem

    Ok guys I really need help.As some of you know I recently changed out radiators to a Fluidyne radiator in order to keep my Viper running tip top.After the install I noticed that once the car heats up,the power steering whines.This progressively gets worse as the rpm's climb.I immediately figured...

    Ideal alignment settings

    Ive ordered a set of machined strut caps from Sean that would drop another inch.Ive also found a local alignment shop with a Pit Rack so the alignment shouldnt be a problem.I was just curious what the factory camber setting was so I could compare notes when the guy does the alignment. Joe

    Power Steering Problem

    Ever since I installed the new radiator,my P.S whines when the car heats up.I changed to a larger cooler but it still makes noise.I even flushed the old fluid and replaced with synthetic.Are these pumps prone to breakage? Joe

    Eibach springs

    No problem where I live.1 inch isnt what I thought it would be.If I ever buy coil overs,Ill try to go even lower(staying within alignment tolerances)My NSX is much lower.The front lip is 3.5 inches from the ground and the whole car is 43 inches from ground to roof. Joe

    Ok Im pissed

    No problem.Id just like to go on record saying that in no way was I implying anything bad on Sean Roe's behalf.This problem with the radiator is Fluidyne's.Ive had nothing but positive experiences with Sean and am a loyal customer.He has provided me the best customer service Ive ever had.I will...

    Ok Im pissed

    Well excuse me Tony but nowhere in MY instructions does it say that this radiator requires a new fan.If it at least told me,I would have purchased the new fan <u>before</u> I started the job.All Im saying is that the illustrated instructions are misleading.I read what it said long before I...

    Ok Im pissed

    Brad, Thats the install page Im talking about.If you look closely at the fans pictured,there are two different ones.They dont mention going from old to new during the install,only that they had a 97 GTS with a 99 fan already(read:before the fluidyne) My gripe is that I wasnt told that my 97 fan...
