Default Please help, really quick question!!
what torque for stock lugs on slipstream? Is it 80lbs/ft? Because it seems kind of tight when i go up that high?

Try putting a little anti-sieze on the threads and rounded lug nut surface.

That's right... good point, I forgot, cause the stock lug nuts are Acorn shaped (slightly rounded) the slips need cone type lugs (straight)...

Will the spoon lugs work? This is the first time I've used stock lugs on the the slips. Last time I took it to a auto-x, I used the spoons.

Yes, they'll work...but their life will be greatly decreased...I have mine sitting in a bag looking all pretty...can't use them anymore.

Hmmm, Kyokugen + Rota told me they wanted more then 80ft lbs on the track. 4/5 bolts on each side (fronts) were finger loose after a heat. Anti-sieze was used.
