    apexi EL2 fuel pressure gauge warning light

    Does anyone with the same gauge have any insight on why the warning light stays on all the time. I've used the control module to set the warning higher (which works), but the warning light still blinks all the time. I'm getting the proper fuel pressure readings. I've also got an EGT and boost...

    Apexi EGT probe too long?

    I'll take a picture tonight to show. Basically, I'm just trying to see if I can use the same bung I have for my old Greddy probe. As you've stated, I may be able to get away with the compression fitting, but I have to re-evaluate how that works.This may be a dead thread, as I've just ordered...

    Apexi EGT probe too long?

    Just replaced my EGT gauge from Greddy to Apexi and I noticed that the probe is too long to fit in the current #1 runner tap. Can I bend this?or should I just invest in a TRE probe?

    NSA alternators....heard of 'em?

    yeah, I'd like to bring this thread back. I'm also interested, and found this:http://www.car-stuff.com/performance/quote.php?make=18&year=1997&model=186&brand=3949&part_name=6191&skipped=trueAny thoughts?

    Other vendors other than slowboy with the same stuff?

    Good choice to not buying slowboy. (any more comment on that end violates policy) But extremepsi has comparable products and their inventory is up to date with fast/reliable ship times. never steer'd me wrong.

    coolant from exhaust mani/housing???

    I've know that I have a minor crack in my exhaust housing (16G), as the wastegate flapper isnt completely shutting. Yesterday, I noticed that there are dry coolant spots coming out of the exhaust manifold and turbo exhaust housing connection. Is it possible that the crack in my exhaust housing...

    Car Overheated / Overheating / Overheats [MERGED]

    The first check I made last night before working on it was to see how the coolant level changed. It was nearly drained, yet no puddles under the car. I'm thinking where did all the coolant go? I decided to flush the radiator and run to NAPA to replace the cap and perhaps thermostat. It was the...

    Car Overheated / Overheating / Overheats [MERGED]

    I know where the thermostat is, and how to take it apart, but what exactly am I looking for?

    Car Overheated / Overheating / Overheats [MERGED]

    After reading plenty of threads regarding this issue, it would appear that there can be many reasons for why my car had overheated. I'm gettting very similar symptoms as other people with the burnt smell of coolant... burnt coolant in the reservoir... and most importantly, no heat out of the...

    Back fire

    What's a possible solution to getting rid of backfiring? Same deal is happening to me right now. What will happen if I replace my 02 sensor?

    Stock Oil pressure Gauge Versus Greddy oil pressure gauge

    does it go in place of the stock sensor? I've had a mechanical one and an npt fitting took the place of the stock sensor in a socket just behind the oil filter.

    weird scratching sound on cold starts...

    Fellaz... Glad I found this forum... Someone redirected me to it. I've got the same issue, and I'm gonna change my T-belt next week, and hopefully I can troubleshoot the issue. Started with me this winter. At first I wasnt sure if it been because i recently replaced my plugs and wires. If...

    Stock Oil pressure Gauge Versus Greddy oil pressure gauge

    Does the greddy oil pressure gauge have a sensor similar to the stock one, in that it does not deal with vacuum lines? I used to have the autometer mechanical oil pressure gauge, and I just didnt like the way it uses a vacuum line. I wanna know if it's a sound investment.

    Cold start noise

    I recently noticed this noise that almost sounds like a high pitch grind on cold starts. Almost immediately after I turn the ignition. Possibly for a second, and then goes away. However, say when I drive the car for a bit, and start it up again, no noise. Anyone have had this problem before...

    16 PSI w/o boost controller...why?

    How can I find out how much fuel Im actually feeding? Can I find this out using a pocketlogger or an S-AFC? FPR w/ gauge? Basically, I'm figuring out my next mod, but at this point I'd like to monitor the amount of fuel I'm providing. All this before I intend to string out the T-too small.The...

    16 PSI w/o boost controller...why?

    In my search to find a thread with the right question, I ran into this one. I, too am still running the stock t-too slow turbo. Now I'm just questioning how much boost I can run safely with a fuel pump rewire? I actually have a walbro 255, so is a rewire necessary? Am planning on getting an...

    Turbo Timer disarming your alarm?

    I have an HKS TT with a 2G harness, and I noticed that after it shuts down the car, the doors unlock and disarms the alarm. (Viper 600). Does anyone else have this problem or a fix for it? Any leads will help. Thanks in advance.

    Im down, as long as there is hard evidence about the knock value for my 2G.

    diff. plugs and wires have affect on perf.

    as per RRE: "Colder plugs will retain less heat between combustion cycles, thereby reducing the tendency toward damaging detonation elevated boost levels. Spark plug gap should be set at .030" for up to 16psi boost. Set at .028" for 17psi and up. "BPR7ES and BPR6ES obviously have different...

    diff. plugs and wires have affect on perf.

    Thanks. And no, I'm not boosting more than 17psi, so I'm thinking that it's not the plugs. I have a feeling that it's the wires. I'll check the wire boot.

    o2 simulators anyone?

    how was the install? was it pretty simple? I believe that the one from summit is the same one from Casper Electronics. I'm looking at that particular sim.

    o2 simulators anyone?

    Does anyone have the rear o2 simulator? If so, was it home-made, or bought from somewhere? I'm very interested in getting one. Any leads would help. Thanks

    diff. plugs and wires have affect on perf.

    Last night, I installed a set of BPR6ES-11 re-gapped to .028. The guy at the shop gave me the wrong set of plugs so I decided to re-gap them, to spec. I hear that's fine, as long as they're gapped ok. I was using a set of BPR7ES gapped to .032, before. In addition, I also put on a used set of...

    shocks with RM sway bars

    I am planning on replacing my shocks and would like to get some input on people with RM sway bars. I notice that the demise of my stock shocks have been deceived by the sway bars since they give a tight ride as is. I plan on replacing the stock struts with the tokico blues, but after reading...

    check engine light went on

    I tried to clear the ECU to see if it's recurring by taking off the battery connection... and it turns out that it the error returns as soon as I start up. Do u know if Autozone does it? I really wanna know what error codes it's returning. Thanks.

    check engine light went on

    Kinda new here, and I've own my car for less than 3 months. Anyway, I was on my way home yesterday after about a 3 hour drive, and my check engine light came on towards the end of the trip. There were no adverse effects on performance, so I'm not sure what to do. What should be my first step...

    TT and alarm

    I know that this has probably been a question posted numerous times, but I would like to know how to take care of the problem with alarms and Turbo Timers. Anyone have any leads to this topic. Perhaps maybe even just a link to a previous post? Thanks

    2G blowing 15 amp radio fuse

    I recently acquired a 97 GSX and I wanted to fix some things on the car. One of the problems was that the previous owner tried to hook up hiper white dome light bulbs in the reading light assembly behind the rear view mirror. Wrong bulbs to begin with. In my attempt to replace these bulbs, I...

    Kinda new here, and Im not sure if this problem has been mentioned before, but I just recently purchased a 97 GSX, and noticed that the oil pressure gauge is not working. I'm not sure if it's electrical and the cluster might not be reading anything. Can someone please provide some...
