Agreed price is pretty steep. Is there a one run plus a/f ratio option for cheaper?

No.

Its all dictated by torque performance.

If you want the runs and Airfuel's then pay the money.

SR20 help

Hi guys

Got a sr20de powered s14(manual). It keeps on dropping revs and dying when i come to a standstill. It runs fine under normal driving conditions, just dies as soon as I come to an intersection. I have checked the battery and alternater and they are both fine, any idea what it could be?

tyre size check

Hi guys

I have some wheels to put on my car but just want to make sure I get the right tyre size:

Factory Wheels: 205/60/15
New rims 17x7.5

Am I right in assuming I need some 205/50/17?

Cheers
