just as a suggestion,the guys at dogbox racing are really good guys and dont kill on pricing,awesome shop. But I agree with the others,definitely try and get it done yourself first. by the way,car looks awesome
Is your friend serious? Barring a turbokit that youre unaware of,or SERIOUS mods. That T/A is a heavy slow ass junkbox. You should go walk on him just to put him in his place,or find a local DSMer to do the trick. Like earlier stated,a stock good running DSM should have no problem stretching him
The other day the CEL was coming on when I turned the key over,I checked yesterday and now all of a sudden,no CEL. I guess my ECU is fried,Now its time to search and find a known-to-work 90 ECU so I can get my damn thing running again
Crank angle sensor. I was talking to a friend of mine whos a mechanic and he said the CAS might have gone bad which could possibly cause the injectors not to fire
It doesnt smell bad in the car so I ruled out ECU going to all hell. I looked around and all the belts are still in tact and the IC pipes are still attached and I dont see anything else missing. I was looking around at sensors etc. Im thinking maybe the CAS went bad and now the injectors wont...
lol I just used the screwdriver as a last ditch effort before the night was over. When I turn the key the idiot lights all come on etc like normal,car just wont turn over
I took one of the spark plug wires off today and put a screwdriver in the hole and tried to arc a spark off the wire to the screwdriver and there was no spark at all,think the coil pack is bad? Is there something before the coil pack that would prevent me from getting spark? Ill check the...
Just fiddled with the car a little bit. fuel pump primes and I checked the timing belt and its still in tact and when you try to turn the car over the cams are turning so I guess that isnt it. Im leaning towards something electrical
I have a 90 Talon Tsi thats pretty much stock except for an exhaust and a boost controller. So I was driving home yesterday after replacing the shifter cables and about 2 minutes from my house I was coming down the hill and I heard kind of a pop and then everything just died. The tach went to...
lol yeah DSMers are cheap asses,but if youre a DSMer and youre not a master mechanic,the car spends alot of time in the shopROFLROFL..But yeah in all seriousness youre completely right,TT is definitely a hit or miss,Ive heard so many terrible stories about them that it makes me cringe when I...
Stick a penny in the tread of your tire upside down,If you can see the top of Lincolns head then its time for new tires. Or you could just buy a GSX and enjoy the snowLOL
If youre serious about putting down that kind of power and you want to get a trans from DBR why not just get their race trans. They claim it can handle upwards of 500 Lb-ft of TQ and shifts above 9K. If you dont want to go DBR Id say get a Shep trans.
Im 99.9% positive dogbox will do just about anything you ask them to. They were willing to throw a GT35 onto my buddies Volvo,Im pretty sure they can do anything lol. Their website is Welcome to Dog Box Racing! I believe. If not just google dogbox racing and youll find them. and they are located...
