My just started doing this yesterday after some 3rd gear pulls. The weird thing is, yesterday when I was driving home like this it cleared up when I got into my neighborhood and the o2 started cycling. So I decided to test it again and built a little boost and it went back to doing the same...
Heres a youtube video of the sound. It started after the first time I hit the 2 step after getting my exhaust/turbo setuo put back together. I was trying to see how much boost it would build compared to my old turbine housing with a cracked WG hole.Let me know what you think it is...
Alright well. I just got my car running again with the new semi built head, and tonight I went to go set base timing.With the timing connector grounded via link. and the timing light reading from both spark plug wire #1 & 4(get the same readings and my timing light seems to work better on #4)...
I'm having what sounds like the same exact problem as this guy. When I launch my car or just accelerate hard in first gear, I get some sort of vibration that feels like its coming from the right rear of the car. My first thought was the right rear axle.I have new OEM carrier bearings sitting...
I think I found the rim that will suit my car best, and still be in my price range. The Rota SDX 17" rims, bronze in color.I had this picture previously photo shopped with gold Rota Grid rims, but I decided I didn't want to go with them after I thought about it for a while.It has already...
I've always been a fan of the Audi/VW tuning scene, mostly the potential of the 2.7L twin turbo engine produced by Audi. Heres an amazing custom built rear wheel drive VW GTI that could whoop some ass on a track.‪034Motorsport GTI-RS Concept to Reality Full Length‬‏ - YouTube...
Well, earlier today I was stuck in a bind while putting my timing belt back on. I didn't have the belt tensioner tool and didn't feel like ordering 1 and waiting 3 days for it to get to my home.So off to Advance auto parts! I tried to see if they had a belt tensioner adjustment tool(fat...
Well, I blew my head gasket about 3 weeks ago and it has been sitting for 2 weeks with all the fluids drained out. I was taking everything off the motor exept the stuff on the timing side today, and I pulled the valve cover off to find that vvvvvv..There is some surface corrosion on a the...
I'll try to describe this as best I can.When I first start my car up in the morning, after about 1 minute of runtime I can start to see very vague puffs of WHITE smoke coming out of the exhaust and it increasingly get worse until it is more of a transparent white fog. But it then goes away...
These are the first logs since I have installed my new(used lol) fic 750cc injectors and my new TD05H 20G.I am running wastegate pressure for obvious reasons.. I have left everything the same as it was when I had taken the 14b off(DA tables) and I zeroed out the maf(had a boost leak on the...
Alright well, I'm about to install my TD05H 20G. I'm tuning for 350whp on pump and 400whp on race gas or with meth injection(when I get it).What drivetrain parts start to break when you get to the 400whp range? I have a built auto, so the tranny is not an issue.In other words...What...
I'm looking into getting the AEM water/meth injection system for my Talon since there is no race gas or E85 close to me, and I feel the need for more speed :D.I have a few questions:
1. What do you guys use for your meth inj. system? I've read of just using the blue windshield wiper fluid as...
Alright, well, I was taking my FIC 550's and swapping them out with my FIC750s and as I was taking the 550s out one of the lower seals broke into 2 small peices and one of the pieces dropped into the hole.its this big -------------> OShould I even worry about it?and if I should be...
Can a bad coolant temperature sensor or coolant fan switch sensor make me run lean? I'm trying to figure out why my car is running lean. I was told that one of these these might cause the problem.I thought the coolant fan switch would just make the fans not turn on.
Alright, I've been having trouble with my car running REALLY lean. I'm going to try to desribe it as best I can. All the a-f ratios are give or take .5.When I first start up my car. The o2 will cycle between 12.9-14.3. Normal for the temps outside. And it will gradually get leaner as I get...
Alright, for some reason my car idles at 16-17:1 afr( it may go higher or lower, but thats where it usually stays most of the time).Is that normal? I thought it was supposed to stay around 15:1. Or could my car just be different lol?Anyone else have an experience like mine
I had this posted in the electrical forums but absolutly no one had any input. Maybe i'll get more attention here. Sorry mods :coy:. I just cant have my car broken into.Alright, it all started yesterday afternoon. I decided to leave my windows down b/c it was nice and sunny. As i went to go...
I'm just wondering how some gold Rota Grids would look with my paint. And I'm planning on tinting the windows soon as well, just wanna know how she looks.Thanks!
Alright, it all started yesterday afternoon. I decided to leave my windows down b/c it was nice and sunny. As i went to go back into my car to drive away, i tried to roll up the windows and only the drivers side went up...Today it is pouring rain, and I have this fugly tarp over my car...
Turbo Compressor Housing TD05H + Wheel 20G DSM 1G EVO 3 - eBay (item 150567802677 end time Mar-25-11 03:35:33 PDT)Just wondering what you guys think of this. Justin, you probably would have a good opinion on this.Its a 20G compressor wheel from some company in japan. It says its...
I've looked at the other threads on this but i havent seen the DTC code 022 on any of them, which is the code i am throwing.I've notice that when this has happened to other members on here, their cars wouldn't start. Mine cranks up every time. It just threw the code yesterday while i was on...
I'm a little new to tuning but i'm learning rather quick(or at least I like to think soLOL). Right now i've locked my ecu in Open Loop until my o2 sensor gets here. I'm just wondering if theres any side effects from constantly running in open loop(been running like this every day for 2 weeks)...
When i get in the boost and then let off the gas, thus making the BOV go off, my car hiccups, the rpms drop then go back to where they were, and my afr's go way rich then clear up when the rpms go back to normal. It happens at any boost level, it could be 2 or it could be 22, either way it still...
Yesterday i was driving home and all of a sudden, while crusing, my a/f ratios went from oscillating at 15.6:1-17:1, to staying at 17.5:1 and LEANER sometimes not even reading on my AEM wideband and just staying on the last red bar. WTF is going on.I woke up this morning, changed the o2...
Alright, i guess FIC discontinued this injector set at some point. Well, i bought my car with some FIC 550s on it and i just got link not too long ago.Now, for the FIC 650's The Global it -31 and Deadtime is 210
What would that make my 550's? They seem to flow a bit higher then most 550's...
Alright well, i am f ing annoyed. I was doing some logs on link earlier today, i got back after doing a couple and i went to turn my car off and take the key out and.. "WTH why isn't my key turning back all the way." After turning the steering wheel back and forth trying to see if that would...
Like the title says the dash lights in my car randomly dont work anymore. I noticed this yesterday night when i went to autozone to get some loctite. The blinkers still work but the speedo, tach, engine temp, oil pressure, fuel guage all dont light up anymore. i checked all of the fuses, im...
Alright so, if you, for some reason, had to get rid of your DSM and buy a different car, which car would you choose? (can't be an evo :p)I think if i had to choose, i would get either a Skyline R33 or a Mitsu 3000GT VR4. I gotta have AWD its just more fun IMOWhat about you :sneaky...
I've been watching this car for a while his original price was $5000 :rolleyes: . He reposted the car for $4000 and well the car looks clean, i mean its got a few scratches and whatnot but appearently the interior is immaculate, so he says.. anyways heres the list of everything done to the car...
