    Which ECU is best for an upgrade?

    I have been running AEM for a few years and It is very complicated but like other said fun to nerd out on. There are so many options and parameters to set up that you definitely need to have at least a base knowledge of tuning before you even consider this. AEM makes a great product but I have...

    Did It work for you? I just purchased the aem CDI and I too am running an aem ecu, and tach adapter. I have the same instructions and I am getting ready to put it in this weekend but I am trying to find more examples of this application before I just through 50,000 volts to my plugs.

    Lets talk Difs.

    I am awaiting a TRE maxlock rear from Jon. I cannot wait to feel the difference between that and my old worn out lsd. I am hoping the 1.5 way will give me a more playful and consistent oversteer or throttle steer. I also have a jacks stg 5 coming with a quaife front and possibly an adelia vc...

    TEIN or JIC Magic on 1G AWD?

    I have megans and I do not like the spring rates that come with them and i am not sure they could be Re-valved to use a softer rate spring or what it would cost. The locking collars come lose frequently and they are super rough on rough mountain roads. If you are looking for quality for spirited...

    Carrier Bearing?

    I also recommend not siliconing the carrier bearings. I did this once long ago and it did not help vibration. Also within a few thousand miles all of a sudden one day my rear diff started squealing and the ring and pinion exploded. I would imagine it was caused from excess vibration and the...

    1000cc injectors what about these ebay ones?

    +1 for FIC. If you ever have a question or seals you can call them directly. I have had my FIC 1000's for 3 years now and they still work like they where new. Never trust your car to ebay parts, even alleged DeLphis.

    Exhaust manifold gasket question

    I just replaced my exhaust gaskets with a set from ffwdconnection The embossed copper gaskets are holding up well and seal great. It's also a good opportunity when replacing these to gasket match all your exhaust componentry to optimize flow. Just don't buy the head to manifold copper gasket...

    How do I adjust the gas peddle only goes down 3 inches...

    I agree with absit your throttle cable is adjusted incorrectly. take your tb elbow off and make sure the butterfly is closed when the pedal is up fully. take slack out of the cable making sure that the butterfly stays closed when the pedal is up. Have someone else push the pedal down to the...

    Timing Belt Selection

    +1 for gates. I had a ps pump bolt head break off and fall into my timing cover where it promptly shot through the timing belt and the cover to escape, I presume. when I pulled over after hearing the noise the car was still running and I only figured out what had happened after stopping the...

    coolant leak help

    There's an o-ring around the water pipe where it goes into the water pump. This pipe runs behind the turbo and turns into the lower radiator hose. I would look from the front of the engine above your alternator and below your ps pump while the car is idling at normal operating temperature to see...

    2G Help identifying oil leak

    Buying a purpose built stainless braided line with the correctly threaded fittings on each end is the best choice. I second the making your own with a hose and clamps for the purpose of saving money. You need to use a section of Hydraulic hose that you can get from a four wheel drive shop, it...
