wow

use lye (red devil or similar) and put your piece in it, it'll strip off a thin layer of aluminum and the color with it leaving you a matte finish you can re-anodize. i'd polish it up after stripping cause i like the shiny. EDIT: like adam said, if it's chrome it's a different story

he has his anus calibrated every six months by the international weights and measures board

just water, realized i did have the ac on. thanks :D

i'd feel like crap giving her replicas, too. bolt pattern is 4x100

thanks for the tip, didn't know if anyone like rays made quality wheels that looked similar to the bbs

doesn't look like bbs makes the RM or the RS anymore but they came oem on many cars (mx5, golfs, bmws, etc) and i'm looking for a set for my gf's mr2. anyone know of companies that make replicas or sell the originals/copies? i've looked around junkyards here but haven't seen any, much less a...

after breaking the engine in tonight (20 miles, motoman style) my heater/ac drain (i guess) on the passenger side firewall is dripping at a rate of a drop every four or five seconds. i've never noticed this before and i'm slightly paranoid watching for leaks since the new motor's in, is this...

found out what it was :D had the notch on the drive gear one click off of the notch on the distributor housing (apparently i didn't sight down it straight).

my guess is the timing, working on that now.

saw that right after i posted :D genius here.

update: i can turn it over all i want without setting foot on the gas pedal and it won't give me code 51 but the second i step on the gas it gives me the code.

would a code 51 cause it to not fire? i figured it'd just be a rough idle. as for timing, i've set the crank pulley at 0 and mounted the dist. in the center position, but haven't gotten any farther than that. i've got a timing light but didn't think i could use that til the engine was running...

hey all, just got my rebuild done and the engine is in the car not starting. i pulled the codes and got a code 41 so i tested the TPS -- it was bad. got a new TPS from the dealership and put it on the throttle body, adjusted it and it looked like it was working fine. put it all on the car...

the one I was missing was the block ground. thanks for the quick reply though!

nevermind, I figured it out. this thread helped: http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=77756&highlight=ground+points

almost done, just had a quick question. where does this ground wire connect to? I already have one on the front fender, I think this one goes somewhere on the intake...?

sorry, forgot to specify - mine's an NA with the three vac lines coming off of the top portion, i don't know if i can use turbo (i'm guessing) egr parts with my NA egr.

got a used egr off of a member on here and everything looks about the same (different sticker color on the egr, blue instead of pink/purple and it's got a different number) but when i get to the top piece with the vac lines (bolts to the manifold and clips into the bracket) mine has three lines...

thanks for the copper seal tip!
