I was playing around with helmet spoilers the other day to reduce helmet lift. With the spoiler set higher on the helmet, my head was sucked back into the head rest. This transferred all the vibration...

Don’t put in too much grease, the excess moves into the boot, the extra weight of the grease centrifuges outward at high speed and blows the boot off. I was told the incorrect amount of grease in each...

That looks like it’s from the movie “Ghost Busters”! I would remove them, disassemble, inspect and replace all the rubber parts. As you know, brakes are one area that you want to have 100% confidence...

thanks, just let me know if there are other areas that I can help with.

Thanks for sharing the video, looks like you were enjoying it. Driving a Radical is a lot of fun and very challenging. There is a NASA event there at the end of May that I am going to attend. I will ...

On my car, the oil path is: sump-press pump-cooler-filter-galley/parts-back in sump. So the oil temp is measured after it has removed heat from the parts and before it goes into the cooler. We don’t ...

Thanks for the clarification on the location. I know the debate of sensor location has been beat to death on other sites. But why is the operating range the same, 90-110C ? Oil measured at the sump ha...

I am toying with putting the dry sump kit on my SR1. maybe over the next winter. one thing that has me wondering is where is the oil temp sensor? currently, on the wet sump, it is in the side of the...

John, maybe this is a dumb suggestion, but can you use a good sized rubber chock to prevent the wheel from rotating? push down on the torque wrench, thus pushing the wheel into the chock. Since I don...

I use a combination of paint and torque strip. Paint for the suspension adjusters, torque stripe for most others. The Torque strip works good for bolts with nuts. Clean well, put a stripe from the thr...

I have not seen a pdf parts manual for a SR4 or an SR1. But I understand they did exist for the SR4. But most of the parts are off the shelf. I posted an old link in the alternate parts thread to a...

torque seal, it is a paste like lacquer, that hardens. if the fastener comes loose, then the torque seal flakes off.

🔺I just ordered some for my SR1, but the size is the 92mm (87mm clamped diameter) Edit: 92mm is perfect for the SR1 CV joint.

Out on track, finally. They felt great. Didn’t get a chance to sweep the damping as I had a axle/CV boot pop off and I didn’t want to contaminate the joint. But 4 installation laps, a good look over...
