Well im trying to piece together my next step. If its my rings/pistons ill prob do a basic bottom end buildup. Option A: Most expensive New CP pistons(20 over) New ACL bearings HKS head gasket ARP head studs New valve seals while im at it Option B: Cheapest route All new stock...

Anything is a possibility till I find out what exactly happened.

No, the belt was still all lined up at TDC on the cams and crank :3d_frown:

Found out whats wrong, Cylinder 3 and 6 both have no compression =[

well bad news... cylinder3 and 6 are dead. no compression in either of them

For some reason the pump wouldnt prime when connected like stock. Either way im going 12V mod, new wires(10g) instead of the 22 year old wires in the car now.

Im just going to do the 12V mod. Im going to be tearing the front timing cover off tomorrow to see if that is my problem.

Still in the process of putting the battery into the trunk, so for now the pump was on a switch.

well it was the first nice night since I broke in my clutch so I decided to do a quick pull on the highway to see how she pulls. Anyway, im in third and im pulling up untill 5k or so then i hear a loud POP, almost like a IC pipe popped off. Instead, the car died and I coasted the the side of the...

Well timing is in check, pulled my plugs and they were a little dark for 500 miles. I changed out the ECU and did a ground check. No luck. Something that struck my mind, The crank trigger wheel(sprocket looking thing) came off when the engine was out on the stand, but I heated it up and...

well I know the car is getting fuel, the fuel pump is wired on a switch. The only code i got was 78 :aigo: its not even a code. Maybe i desiphering it wrong? If I am, ill post a video of it later to make sure what I saw was right. Edit, I found this Code 78 Fuel pump control signal fault is...

I got my harness done by Dr Tweak from phoenix tuning

It will cut out usually at idle from a stop, or very low speed.

Wow man the car looks great. Im also from NJ, Edison to be exact. I wish my 2j looked as good as yours

Well I think I should be keeping the RPMS lower, with an open DP and this cold weather I think the turbos spool quickly, maybe to quick. I thought I felt the clutch slip a bit at 3k(in 4th) I let off of it asap. Just wondering if It did any damage to the clutch. It has around 100 miles on it already

but big single>twins. Im from Edison, its about north central NJ. Im down to meet up, just need to save up some money :biglaugh: On another note, right now I couldnt hook up my power steering cooler and I needed power steering.(live in a place where slow speed turns are very often) so I...

yah I guess ill just keep it under 3.5k, and not WOT it nor slip the clutch for long.

Well the car is up and running on the streets for now. I dont have a DP yet but i want to fab one up soon. She drives fine, just one question about breaking in a clutch. Is it better to downshift each gear or just pop the clutch and coast? Whats better for breaking in? Anything else I should know?
