    safc questions

    i know this, thats what i explained, in depth. he just claimed timing was changed, whether he meant what i said, or what it sounded like. an SAFC should be fine for minor recalibrations. but if you have to scale down huge injectors, it will result in larger lies being told to the ECU and the...

    Supra on Pinks!

    how did the RX7 not win against the Civic? do they maybe mean Import vs. Domestic version of Pinks? thats the only way i can see it being accurate. and now that someone has mentioned it, the MK3 actually DOES have more legitimate hollywood Credibility than the MKIV. the MKIV has just...

    3000GT R/T ignitor and AEM EMS

    youre trying to get rid of the stock ignitor? is this supposed to stay waste spark with the AEM? or can you switch it to a sequential? if you run an HKS twinpower, youll have the CDI aspect as well as a multispark setup; at least thats what their propaganda states. i would think that...

    Engine wiring help

    idk, that actually DOES look like a knock sensor wire. is that brown jacket Loose-fitting with a silver-filament shelding between the jacket and a center wire? if so, does this center wire have a whitish/clearish insulation with a 14ga fine-stranded core?

    is there an easy way to R&R the oil pressure sensor?

    i went to my hydraulic guy and bought a -8 to -8 male union to tie my oil lines together and bypass the cooler. if that works, ill use the -8 hose splice i also bought to modify the lines so i can reverse them. the "toes" on my crowfoots werent long enough to reach under the bell, so idk. i...

    Crash Safety Ratings on the MKIII

    lol Jag... i just dont like the styling cues on the pre89. if the pre89 and post 89 styling was reversed (like mine looked like it does but was an 86... yet the 89+ looked like the 86's) id like the older ones! i like my steering wheel better, guages, moulding, mirrors, bumpers, turn signals...

    I found some JDM bubble markers in my pile of parts!

    i dunno... maybe justin is right. all side markers or no side markers... not half and half. ive seen MKIV's with no side markers, like a 98 front bumper and rear add-ons that cover up the rear corners. i thought i saw clear side markers before but i never paid attn to them so i dont...

    Dual Walbros?

    yeah, thats true... a gallon of methanol should suspend any water as well and allow it to be combusted. but youd have to Know there was water in your tank to warrant using it. i wonder what Sta-Bil does to the octane level. it cant hurt it anymore than stale fuel alone.

    Upgraded CT-26 worth it?

    the 60-1 wheel specs i had memorized 2.3"/3.0" for all intents and purposes... calculates to be a 59 trim, or 60 minus1 trim... very crafty. the other ones, i dont recall the wheel dimesions though. i thought i had seen them posted somewhere, possibly on jblmk3.com but his site was under...

    Engine wiring help

    its only a ground if it has black spots or bands on it. a solid brown isnt a ground. its quite possibly the starter solenoid wire. knock sensor wires have clear insulation. you can see the copper strands inside the wire. its kinda cool.

    is there an easy way to R&R the oil pressure sensor?

    well, turns out, the craftsman crowfoot wrench set doesnt work with the oil pressure sender. the bell on the sender is too large of a diameter to allow the crowfoot to engage the hex. soo, i spent $39.99+tax for nothing. im gonna take them back tomo. what i ended up doing was removing the PS...

    is there an easy way to R&R the oil pressure sensor?

    no, im not old. im still a young buck. bastard.... it seems as though the crow foots are gonna be sears-only. home depot, lowes and Advance had nothing. im sure AutoZone will be just as luck-free in that department. ill find out tomo i guess.

    I found some JDM bubble markers in my pile of parts!

    these werent sitting in oil, just the spare heater hose i had. do you mean the dark part in the one on the right? if thats what you mean, its just a shadow from the open bulb socket. one had some mildew remnants in it but the resolution of my phone isnt enough to pick up on it. i just...

    Upgraded CT-26 worth it?

    does anyone have a link to the specs on the wheels used in the upgraded CT's? im more curious about the wheel diameters than the trims... since they are always referred to in trims, not sizes.

    Has anyone heard of an "X-brace" for the mk3?

    Yeaaah, you know what im talkin about ;) i wouldnt mind doing that if i were to make a 100% street car and refuse to have a cage... but for my next project, im planning an 8pt cage.

    A couple of 3rd Gens! *Lots of Pics*

    yeah, im VERY paranoid about that kind of shit happening to me. there is a gas station with that kind of scenario EVERY time i go out there. traffic is lined up right in front of the station on the corner, im always in the right-turn lane thats open and speed limit is 55 there. so by law, i can...
