    coilovers

    I don't see an external reseviour. So they are not "high perf", they are just run of the mill coil overs with adjustments that are again, not needed if the shock was designed for the car from the get go. Here are some more thoughts to ponder. Do you know what Rebound Dampening...

    attention anyone who has purchased from Champion Toyota

    Jeff Watson @ Champion Toyota. He has been selling to US MKIII owners for quite some time (10+ years). I m going to gues that it was not Jeff W but one of the processors that process the CC. You never should talk with anyone else besides Jeff Watson when it comes to ordering part. The...

    Thermostat ?????

    Think about that for a minute. What makes the engine work. (Heat) What happens when a cool metal is made to absorb heat. (Absorbs MORE heat = taking away heat from doing work). If the parts could tolerate it, the ideal things would be to run the engine as HOT as it could take without...

    Got my built 7m running last night!! couple questions. Vid. on post 66

    Well keep in mind. The AEM uses the stock OEM harness. If it is a wiring issue. It will appear again in the AEM. The AEM or any standalone is best used when the car is in tip top shape. Otherwise a problem might appear to be ECU related when it is wiring related. I do not have any TCCS laying...

    Code 31

    The AFM electronics? Unfortunatly no. The AFM housing by itself, yes. Just remove the AFM electronics. That won't do anything though. The AFM, I have never seen one get "clogged". They usually die of electrical causes.

    injector impedance

    Ok seeing as this has been a guessing game. We need you configuration. Motor configuration, ECU any mods basically.

    Ignore me. I thought it was 41 but I saw 42 and thought you had NEW problems ;)

    92nsx you still have the 42 code coming up? Is that the only code? Also on the TPS front. I have an OEM TPS that is still attached to the OEM TB. I pulled it working from my car. And as IJ stated, all the cool guys are running MoTeC ;) edit: on the TPS front. I know JetJock had...

    92nsx 42? Vehicle speed sensor? Did you swap from a GE to GTE motor?

    new diet ....

    ERA Congrats. Are you doing any stregth training at all or just diet for the time being? When (and if) you start doing strength training, you will gain weight back but not inches. Muscle packs a punch weight wise.

    Now this is an engine harness!

    cursed photobucket! (No access of PB at work) but 2k for a MoTeC harness for an M800 which does not have Autosport connectors ANYWHERE? Serisouly? 2k? What wire did they use? M22759/91? For that price, they better used that instead of the M22759/32 (Also known as Spec55) which is what...

    injector impedance

    You post a picture and then you tell us not to go by the picture? lol Anyway perhaps next time instead of posting a picture... a part number will work. Those are 12 ohm injectors. Running them in parallel will make them seem like a 6 ohm resistance. Serial = 24 ohm resistance.

    Code 31

    the AFM HOUSING and not the electronics right? There is no way to "clean" the AFM electronics. That is the sure fire way to kill the AFM electronics though!

    can i drive my mk3 whit ethanol?

    Congrats on FSAE, but I have had this discussion with other schools, tuners etc. Injector seals are either Buna-N, Viton, Silicone, Nitrile Rubber, PTFE (tm Teflon) to name a few. Rubber based O-ring have not been used since the advent of the sythetic based o-rings. Test? What part...

    coilovers

    No coilovers. I would do a set of Bilstein shocks with Eibach springs and call it a day. Coil overs, only if you need to have valving done and even then, the Bilstein's are leaps and bounds serviceable above all aftermarket coilovers. Remember a coilover is a racepart which means religious...

    You could. A "cheap" experiment would be to use a carboard box cut to shape. The only problem is that the weather will probably not turn as hot as it was...

    Those are Delphi Multec Injectors. http://www.racetronix.com/17113814FM.html 2 ohm rating need an ECU capable of peak hold OR resistor inline.
