^ Yeah man, thank's for the tip on the O2. I also thought to myself, wtf did I touch lately, and my brain got to working. . . Atleast I hope it was it, I mean it seamed to have solved the issue haha.

 

[1995gstdsm]

Haha, thats cool at least its working. I on the other hand screwed the inner cv joint i think on my axle. I was pulling the axle with the hub still attached and I think maybe when i was jiggling things around I stretched the boot and maby messed the joint up. Not sure, i never intentionally pulled on it but I cant think of anything else as to why its making the loud "thud" noise when i go above 15mph now. Any insight would me much appreciated

*be*

Thanks, pretty sure I found it, when I rebuilt my turbo and put it back on, my front o2 wire got crimped between the compressor housing and water pipe. So far so good, so ill try it haha.

Travis, yeah that truck was the best purchase. Can finally do what I want with the talon and not have to worry about finishing . Plus I settle on my house friday, so I am sure it will really come in handy!

Travis, you coming saturday?

What is on Saturday? I planned on watching my son till 3 then working on the laser

 

[TSITurbo95]

Yes . Sat at 6.

 

[Gooberlog]

Yes . Sat at 6.

What is at 6 on Saturday, clearly I missed something

Oh I see now, I missed the posts about the meet at Sears. If my car is running and seems ok I'll try to make it. Not much time for me to fix it but we shall see. I have only driven the car about 30' sice I installed all of those parts so I have some checks to complete.

[TSITurbo95]

Ok so things have changed. Ill be arriving in my truck, due to I am going to work on my house afterwards . It's a blue toyota pickup.

 

[TSITurbo95]

Btw, I am leaving now, ill be there about 530

 

[Gooberlog]

I just woke up from nap . I'll have to mess With the laser tomorrow. I won't be making it to hunt valley tonight

 

[Gooberlog]

Matt and I messed with the laser some today and once I get a new battery and do some cruising around to make sure everything feels right I should be ready for a test and tune. I may have to tweak the tune now that my big boost leak has been fixed and the last time the tune was adjusted was over 6 months ago so the weather may be a bit different.

Got 5 gallons of corn juice tonight for $20. Now I remember why I switched from 112 & C16 over to E85, thanks for the push Bob!

 

[1995gstdsm]

Nice

Sorry for the no show saturday halfway there my car started fuel cutting and misfiring really bad at every rpm and under any load. Took the car home switched plugs, wires, coil pack, ignitor/transistor, and checked all of my dsm link setting and all were still where i had set them many months back. Still the car was misfiring and running extremely lean based on my wideband uego gauge. Then i swapped 2g mas, O2 sensor, coolant temp sensor, iac, injectors, cam sensor, and checked all the injector plugs and all of the wiring to them... Still nothing still misfiring.....
Next i checked timing it still was where i had set it, at this time i was very frustrated and confused to what was doing this. All i could think was Fuel filter maybe but my fuel pressure was fine 43.5 on the fpr. Turns out i took my ecu out this afternoon an sure enough it was all corroded and nasty looking. Swapped it out with my brothers ecu, changed the settings then fired it up.... perfect no misfire and not running lean. First 2g ecu i have ever go out on me im used to 1gs capacitors going bad but this was the weirdest thing.....

I almost was about to go aswell. It seems my act 3200 is slipping after we put the new short block in. My season may be over if it needs a clutch, as a replacement would run 3200 to 1100 depending on what I decide to go with. Tell your brother I said hello. Do you have a leak in the car for your evil to be that corroded.

So it seems that a lot of us have been having...issues, with our cars, but most of us are close to having them driveable soon if not already. Since the las meet in hunt valley ended up with most of us not making it, let's have a roll call on what status everyone's car is currently. Also since some of us work on Saturdays, how would a Sunday afternoon meet work for everyone? If we did it early enough, before sun down, we could get some pics. An idea since tuners and link are looking for calendar entry's for the 2013 Dsm calendars.
So post up if your car is drive able or what work it needs and sunday afternoon/ evenings work with your schedule.

ROLL CALL:
Gooberlog: battery arrived yesterday so car should be good shortly. Sunday's good for meet up/cruise
