Review: NRG Engine Torque Damper

[mrwillz]

mine always come loose from the top

any ideas?

i dont have the right tools to do anything about it, other then hand tightening every few weeks

try changing the fluid inside it. the damper will work better. some ppl use brake fluid.

I drove a DC2 with one of these installed, it made the car feel alot 'softer'.
Not enough response for me with one of these, but it just depends on what the user prefers.

Sweet,great to know

Is that what could be it Mr willz,bit confused as to what you mean.

[mrwillz]

^ what fluid?

its loosened so much b4, that the bottom end has come apart

btw its a spoon damper

and i've screwed it back together since of course

but comes loose

[beeza]

Maybe just some of that white plumbers tape you put on the thread to stop it from coming off.I think it's called 'locktite'.

your case has nothing to do with the fluid.

is yours brand new or used? have u checked the thread? is it damaged? yeah, otherwise use the white thread tape.

[mrwillz]

no thread is ok
it came apart, i can fully hand tighten it to the way it should be eg. like in beeza
just loosens other time

so u rekon i should try the white thread

it came with the car so must of been brand new.

hmm..thats weird. cos it shouldn't loosen up by itself like that tho LOL.

[beeza]

Well the tape will lock that nut on to the thread and hopefully hold it in position so it dosen't loosen up.

You can get it in liquid form too.I just used it on my sunglass screw.

BarmP!

I hav been considering one for a while now. I got hasport mounts though so don't think it would make much difference to me. If i find one at a good price though...
