I guess. I just didn't want to have to make an international call from my mobile. 😟
Unless there are any helpful Steeda reps on here who could kindly check for me. :fingerscrossed:
Hey all
What experience have you had with Steeda for their tunes? I submitted the form online 6 days ago but still haven't heard back from them.
I've sent them a message online but probably won't hear back for a few days.
Does it usually take a long time? I'm just keen to get this kit fitted...
Hi all, I've been meaning to ask, since having my trans issues all smoothed out many months ago, I've been nervous about using S on the gearbox. I drive in D and its lovely and smooth. If I were to use S which is harsher in shifts, will the trans become harsh all the time, even if I go back to...
Haha that made me chuckle. Shows how muscle memory comes into it, doing something one way for a long time really need to concentrate when changing over.
I had similar when I had my Abarth 595 Comp. The window switches were in the center console (like either side of the gear lever in the...
Thanks I'll post back with the results for sure. But that's good to hear! I just hope I picked the right options when submitting the info. I was a bit confused but picked North American 93 10% E for the petrol which I think is 99RON roughly. And then I also said the GT was a PP1 model which I...
Didn't have a good day chasing up my rear spoiler at the bodyshop after finding out they had a fire! 😟 So to cheer me up, I sent my vehicle info off to Steeda for a tune. Yey! 😁 Then I can fit their 2018 open induction kit. I'll stick it on the dyno as well to see what power she is making!
Most likely a cultural thing. In UK you have to MOT your car each year, brakes form part of that check. And if you were to have a bump, and let's say there was evidence to suggest you could have stopped by the traffic cops, they could inspect the brakes perhaps looking for a mechanical defect...
Even though Ferodo say that the pads must not, under any circumstances, be used on public roads. :lipssealed: As Spain is in the EU then the pads need to be R90 approved (guessing track pads are a no no due to optimum operating temps or pedal modulation and feedback). If you had an accident you...
Thanks! Yeah I'd have been happier with a few threads poking through but what I'll do is drive it a few times and then check the torque again and see if they are holding fast or not. :)
Interesting Ford say 41 lbft whereas Steeda say 35 lbft. Not too worried... as I did them up to 45 lbft (60...
Thanks for all the comments and help. Steeda strut fitment take 2. Took a bit longer due to coffee and cake! 😁
So I took the nuts off - defintely on too tight.
Raided my dad's supply of washers and we worked out what we needed in order to level off the inner most studs. They all just...
This was me. :) I installed the Steeda strut brace and those are the aftermarket nuts it came with. The nuts have the white plastic inside. Steeda say 35lbft for the torque and I'm going to redo the fitment today.
Thanks. Its coming off tomorrow, I'll pop a washer underneath to fill the small gap on the inner coloured ones, due to the extra brace.
I'll then use two washers on top so that it doesn't dig in when I tighten it up. That should hopefully then torque down properly without it going on and on. 👍
Thanks not a bad idea. I guess thinking about it I should look at putting a washer underneath to fill the void, that might allow the nut to troque down correctly. I dare not go any tighter as you say, it is thin. At least there is no chance of it working loose. :)
I think I might just replace the discs and pads and see how that goes. I'm guessing nothing people on here have seen before, so hopefully it's just the discs causing the slight lag with the pedal. :like:
Fitted my Steed strut brace today. The instructions left a lot to be desired (especially for Euro spec GT) they could have been written clearer and more succinct. And there is no need to remove the battery cable, it fits under just fine. Not sure why they tell you to do that.
I do have a...
Hey, bit of a weird one. I noticed when driving today that after braking if I slowly lift my foot off the brake pedal there is a slight delay before it releases and comes back up.
I have issues with my discs anyway. Not happy with how they feel, they are all ridged. Front discs also have pad...
I've used EBC Yellowstuff pads on past high performance cars I've owned, no track use mind. Only street. For street use they are spot on. Great bite and good coefficient of friction and easy to bed in (100-200 miles). Dust wise I'd say middle of the road. Not light like some, but not too...
