    tach off by a few hundred rpm + mild hesitation on warmup

    yeah I'll have to do that for sure... sadly I do not have a wideband.... I did on my last car, and it would run 14.7:1 ALWAYS (except WOT) of course everything on my last car had been gone over with a fine toothed comb, multiple times (by me) but I haven't had the time or tools to do hardly...

    tach off by a few hundred rpm + mild hesitation on warmup

    yeah, it's just odd altogether... if the o2 sensor was screwed it should be throwing a code, same goes for bad grounds, same for afm, tps. The car just feels like it hardly wants to go when it's cold... we'll see

    tach off by a few hundred rpm + mild hesitation on warmup

    I havn't had too much time to tear the car down and check all of my connections/grounds... also still re-building my tool collection. But, I thought I'd see if anyone had any advice on what could be the cause. I plan on checking my TPS and ignition system first. The car seems to hesitate a...

    Proud New (to me) MK3 Owner

    people act like the m series engine is unreliable, but it's always funny when i see them in the junkyard w/ 3 to 500,000+ miles on them treat your car like shit and it'll return the favor... good read though, keep up the good work :cool:

    how do I get oil INTO my diff?

    that would work^ I just ended up getting a hand pump... (with what I believe was -6 hose) pretty messy though. Good news though... I think that groaning/grinding/binding went away. I did remove my exhaust though (as it came w/ 3" running into 2.5" and I'll be getting a custom set-up made...

    how do I get oil INTO my diff?

    sorry man I am a mechanic, and yes I did own the right tools over half a decade ago, until they were stolen, along with my supra... not a pleasant story, but yeah, like I said, stuggling with depression issues, I've mostly just drank a lot and smoked a lot of herb since then, although I gave up...

    how do I get oil INTO my diff?

    I have a vacuum pump... I was thinking about trying to use that if I can get someone to hold the bottle beside the car w/ me pumping underneath... should work

    Any of you guys raced a 350z

    i test drove a 370 when they came out... although the car is lighter than it's predecessor (by a hair) and has more power... it's not really impressive... I could just BARELY notice the increased power... if you didn't see the numbers on paper, you might have never known it had more power TBH...

    Any of you guys raced a 350z

    like I said... 350z w/ full exhaust and a high-flow filter lost 2 cars to me by 120mph I had ~500lbs more and just a downpipe :nono: and yes, he knew how to drive, he didn't miss a shift and we both hit our gears as fast as we could engage them (from a roll too, so there was no real factor...

    how do I get oil INTO my diff?

    That moment when you say "what the hell am I doing?" yeah, that occurred. :biglaugh: I figured, hey if I use some rubber hose and flip the bottle upside down and squeeze it I'll be able to put it in my diff. Well... as it turns out, that's a LOT easier said than done. :nono: I've managed...

    play in rear wheel @ 6 and 12 accompanied by NASTY sounds

    hm... I'll prolly do the bearings, ball joints, and bushings... just for good measure 140+k miles on what I'm sure is still original equipment from the factory
