    Boost issue

    The manifold doesnt have any cracks at all. Ill check how tight the turbo and manifold bolts are in the morning. Yes, the boost controller has the bleeder between the pressure source and wastegate. Its a little hole in the brass nipple fitting. I cleaned it out already thinking it was full of...

    Boost issue

    I have no idea on this one, so I came to the experts for some help. The first time you boost the car, no matter what ( just started, been driving for awhile without wot) the car will build boost up the set 16 psi and then stop, studder and drop to 8-9 psi. Then after it does that, it will only...

    [RESOLVED] Clutch Doesnt Disengage... I can't find answers before pulling tranny

    Not to long ago I had an issue with the clutch not dis-engaging, the car would creep forward if put into gear and the clutch was put in. If I bled the system, it would shift a few times and then go back to how it was. Do you have any problem with the car going into gear? I ending up replacing...

    yay or nay? tinted tail lights / new exhaust

    I think it would look better if you did a solid red across the back. I think it would flow alot better than the black top.

    Turbo Timer Install / Mounting Pics?

    Here is a quick pick of mine. I wanted it out of the way, so I thought hiding it here would be ideal. Its held on with double sided tape.

    3'' pipings and stock exhaust?

    Since you dont like the look of a "fart can", magnaflow makes mufflers that look close to stock and you will be able to get a 3 inch inlet to the muffler. Thus no loss in performance and it will sound good.

    Strange no start

    It did not jump time. The compression test results were 164-163-162-164, so thats definitley not the problem. There is plenty of fuel, so much in fact that when you pull the plugs they are soaked. I cleaned the maf and that did nothing. There is very little spark at all. My coil tests good and I...

    Strange no start

    The car has absolutley no boost leaks, checked that twice today. I have searched and could not come up with any cases like mine. What about the power transitor under the coil pack? What should its resitence value be?

    Strange no start

    This all sarted a couple days ago when I was driving the car. It was only idling at about 15 in hg(vac), 900 rpm and was running rich. It was about 19 degrees outside. As I was driving the car would randomly turn off, mostly when I was decelerating or down shifting. I did not think anything of...

    1G AWD Tsudo exhaust

    I have it, the tip is angled out the back and as for quietness, its quiet. It has too resonators on it as well and sounds pretty good. here is a picture of it comming out the back.

    [RESOLVED] Keep getting air in clutch

    The problem is fixed. It was a bad bleeder on the slave cylinder, I thought I would put this here for future searches.

    Is this what happens to a 3 bolt rear end?

    Everytime I have broke an axle on the 3-bolt thats where it has been. Just seems to sort of "twist" apart.

    [RESOLVED] Keep getting air in clutch

    Yes it does. I just went out and tried that, and it would go into gear like that. But it will not go into gear any other way.

    [RESOLVED] Keep getting air in clutch

    My master cylinder, slave cylinder are new. This just started yesterday, I keep getting air into the line. Ive bled the system 3 times with a mighty vac. I get all the air out of system and it works fine. Once I turn the car off and let it sit for any length of time, when i get back in it to...

    already searched, Backfire.........

    yeah get rid of those and just get some copper plugs and gap them right. Our cars hate anything but copper plugs.
  23. Ja17Bmx

    already searched, Backfire.........

    I have always used ngk plugs so I cant answer that, but if your worried about it just buy some ngk plugs.edit: They are copper plugs correct?

    Bad Vibrations

    Check your motor mounts for a broken one, but Im going to say the most likley cause is a broken band in one of the tires.

    Car Overheated / Overheating / Overheats [MERGED]

    Yes, thats the condenser, if its really messed up like that it could be blocking air from going into the radiator.EDIT: after thinking about it, it definitley sounds like a fan problem, but anything blocking flow isnt good either

    Car Overheated / Overheating / Overheats [MERGED]

    Also check for "things", such as bugs, leaves, etc... in between the condenser and radiator.

    2g->1g BOV: adds 4 psi?

    I do believe that a boost controller can not turn boost down, just up. I looked in your mods and saw you have a 3" exhaust, it sounds like you might have a boost creep issue on your hands now. The stock blow off valves are not designed to leak, the 2g ones just suck and do.

    Cleaning Crankshaft.

    I wouldnt use any cleaner, just a lint free rag to wipe it clean once it was done. But im sure you could just use some soapy water if you wanted, just make sure to coat in wd-40 or oil so it doesnt rust on ya.
  35. Ja17Bmx

    Cleaning Crankshaft.

    Crocus cloth to polish the journals and a "rifled" or "spiral" brush to clean the oil passages.

    backfire during high speeds

    From the look of the plugs, your defintley on the lean side. I would try not using your water injection because there might be some alcohol in the washer fluid itself causing this. Try without using it, and add some more fuel if you can. But definitley do a leak test first:thumb:
  41. Ja17Bmx

    backfire during high speeds

    Check your plug on the cylinder that the spark is weak, more than likley its fouled out. Your going to have to replace that coil to fix the problem in the long run, but possible changing the plug out now will help for a little bit.

    Ok so here is an update. I went out today and checked all the other transmission bolts. It seams that the only one that did that was the one closests to the slave cylinder. I also noticed that it was not an oem bolt but a napa replacement. Upon even further inspection it looks like the previous...
