provided your ECUs have grey plugs, then the HAC is internal....meaning you have a bad ECU. swapping ECUs shouldn't affect your tune....provided you tuned the low throttle map to satisfy Vf....

tuning w/o a WB is giving a loaded gun to a 2 yr old....

yups. log Vf and AFR, then make corrections accordingly. satisfy Vf for closed loop operation, then tune WOT.

if you're going to college, you need something cheap and reliable. forgo the desire to have a "nice" or "fast" or "sporty" car for a few yrs- focus on school, then graduate and get a good job and pick up a sporty "fun" car....

depends on the code. also depends on what you have wired in, remember it is possible to backfeed the ECU w/power if you hooked up an external device improperly.

it totally depends on YOUR usage. i've had a variety of short shifters....NONE of them are compatible with my usage of the car (racing). EVERY real short shifter i've used caused missed shifts when drag racing. it's a combination of the design of the trans and its age. i run a SOGI short shifter...

RPS FTL.

fantastic song....that's off their self-titled debut.

eh, no worries about powering the LC-1 from the ECU....

chances are your 4.4 settings aren't playing well with 4.8.....and then the flash back to 4.4 didn't help because the 4.8 settings didn't translate well back to 4.4. hopefully you saved a .bin of your 4.4 settings before upgrading to 4.8...

yeah. unfortunately, i still think drawing black lines (their sophomore release) was their best albumn....

that's probably the best post i have seen here on SM in a LONG time....if only people would get it....

heh. have been since they started....def. my fav band. ;)

thanks guys...

thanks for the kind words man. nope, i haven't given up on the MKIII....though i probably should. the reality is that i have far too much $$ tied up in one off and rare parts....$$ i'll never see back if i tried to sell. that and the MKIII is a pretty fantastic package in my book. i do have a...

yup, it's done. what's left gets loaded up tomorrow AM....not sure what the next guy is going to do with it, but it will probably just head to the scrapyard. here's a final walkaround....kinda a sad state for such a formerly great car... http://www.4cefed.com/videos/MVI_0574.AVI yes, it's...

good idea. waste $700+ on a good W58 clutch, then blow it up and spend that same $$ again on a R154....

totally depends on HOW you treat it and HOW the PO treated it....FWIW my W58 had 150k on it when i slapped in the GTE.....tq went up to 330 or so for 20k or so miles, then up to 430 or so for another 2k.....then the trans let go on the freeway.

sure, as long as the car never leaves the garage.
