I finally insured the old girl and took her on a 3 hour highway hall. Car ran f@#$%n great. Next day went to fire her up and she's bucking like a wild Bronco. Cleaned the maf, nothin... I suspect a massive boost leak. The intercooler looks it's are and I'm suspecting it's blown out. You fellas...
You boys got any thoughts on installing a boost controller without having access to tuning soft ware? I want to hook up a boost gage and controller on my 90 laser rs but dont want to overlook any difficulties that doing so may create... What could go wrong?Thanks, Fellas.

Fellas,
Trying to figure out the particulars of running a boost controller... I want to install an afm boost gauge and crank it up a few points. Is the boost level for a stock turbo 4g63 around 11 lb?Another thing thats got me confused is whether or not increasing the boost a bit is going to...
Thar she blows! Sucks, actually.Build cost: 12 bucks for some fancy green welding rods.Salvaged old rig exhaust from junk pile. Pounded a piece of copper sheet to cover stock air inlet and wrapped hay wire around it to hold er down. That there is a damn near stock cold air intake. Its all...
Heres a sneak preview of the cold air intake. Im not going to give any more hints! Completed job photos coming asap.Also, has any one ever bought an isc from dsmisc.com? I want to makr sure theyre legit before I cough it up. Thanks, boys.
Pedal is good and tight.I performed a ghetto bench bleed\ primeof the master and the clutch is working like it should now. Could use another less ghetto bleed: I whittled down the end of a 1/4 in fuel line and stuffed it into the outlet on the master. Not completely air tight me thinks...
Fork is centered. Slave takes up slack. Clutch action creating a loud squeaking. Front wheels off ground w/ engine running and wheels spin fast... In nuetral. Serious clutch drag me thinks. Still no satisfaction... Or does dropping the tranny have some sort of correlation to automotive 2nd base...
So,I put the new master in... Didn't work. Spongy, no amount of bleeding or adjusting yielded results. Upon further inspection I found the flex hose section was rotted, weeping and ballooning in a section. Obviously that's the problem right? Well, Changed that bled the system again and bam...
Thus far:Siereous hésitation problem... Fuel filter, flex pipe bandaid and fixed! At least it seems to be.Just picked up a good set of toyo winters for a buck 25. Gotta throw the new clutch master in and should be ready to roll.
Some good A vice, Dusty beaver!They want 15 bucks a pop for lifters here in Shamada. Going to hit ebay. It would be nice if I had an extra 3 grand and 2 weeks to take a holiday with the car, show her zome good lovin.I'll get some burnout shots on here when shez tuned.
No satisfaction yet. Some clacky noise coming from the passenger side of the valve train. I suspect a sticking lash adjuster as the car had been sitting for a year witthout being turned over. Any thoughts? It doesnt happen at low rpm, starts around 2 grand and fades into the higher revs. I'm...
One more thing... After watching a video the proper method to adjust the clutch I flew at er. Cranked the rod on the master cylinder out as far as it would go (clockwise) and it didnt block off the valve and prevent my helper from being able to push the fork with his thumb. I'm still not getting...
Yeah, trying to go used tire rim combo. Got an offer in on a set of 16" wheels with some good winter rubber for 5. Best deal Ive found lately, hopefully they havent sold yet. Maybe by the time I get my first paycheck Ill be able to buy some parts off some u old timers in the for sale section.
Thanks, fellas. It was at 15 btdc!Goter up to five and she smoothed right out. I also tested isc module and discovered its completely facked. I turned the idle screw in though and she idles pretty smooth at 1g which is an improvement. I'm outa money now but next on the list is rims, rubber...
Also, Pauley,Had a look at the timing belt and it looks brand new. Yes! Also, is the proper procedure for settting timing to start at the crank then head up and adjust at the cam sensor with your light on the cam sprockets?
Aight. Supdates.Went with a stock oil feed set up ish. Added a low pressure oil switch just in case. Next step, check and set base timing then take her in a big ol test run. Havent had the joy yet. Still gotta work out the fast idle. Yipee...
Hillarious. More problems creepin.... Wheel bearing, tie rod end, and Ive decided to get rid of the banjo on the head turbo feed and go from the filter. Does any one have a link to the thread where that process is gone over in detail? I'm having trouble finding it. Many thanks.
Banjo fitting for the turbo oil feed appeared to be leaking...hard line was wet all the way down to the top of the turbo. Got a wrench on there to snug it up and the banjo bolt spun into two pieces! And yes I understand over torqueing. Luckily I was able to spin out the portion left in the head...
Runs. Kid rebuilt the engine with his old man. 20thou K on rebuild. Its been parked and hadnt run for a year. She barks up nice. After taking it up to the gas station I discovered a fuel leak at the rail connection. She was idleing fast while the leak was present. I changed the o ring but havent...
Also,Much respect, wiseman. As you can see the need for speed is paramount! This car is going to be a long distance commuter and soon. I dont know my way around them and dont want to overlook anything that could deprive me of a functioning vehicle and or freely achieved hp. Hope that's...
First things first...91 layzer RS

Asess...Full gut, mate. Just dash and front seats intact. I want to get this girl mean for the street. You fellas got any ideas as to what I can freely achieve now to get as much...
