Been looking into running projectors on my MK3. So far been thinking of using parts from The Retrofit Source. Wondering if any one had good examples. Like what housings did you use and how did you mount the projector into the housing.

Wow ricer wings bring out the smartest of people. How about no wing or factory wing. Unless you're doing track racing I see no point in them besides making your car look like a piece of sh$t. I was gunna put a wing on my civic to help the rear be more predictable while I drift it.....

Yea junk yards always got parts for those cars laying around :sarcasm:

How many kv are you getting out of your coils. They could be getting weak.

White smoke is always water. prob blow a piece of the head gasket out between 2 cylinders why their is no coolant in your oil, or at least enough to see. I really cant remember if theirs any coolant passages going through the intake manifold. I can only think of a couple lines that go to...

that sucks. so you over heated it because of the bad radiator

Its possible the pickup in the dizzy can be bad even with volt meter testing. I personally don't trust testing ignition problems with them just because theirs so many factors they cant test. After the first fire its enough to heat up the circuits and make them stop working. The best way to test...

I would have the coolant system pressure tested before automatically assuming a BHG. Would suck to do all that work just to find out a hose had a small leak. Or a pin hole in radiator...heater core.

What head gasket did you use and was the head pressure tested, both head and block resurfaced. Just wondering what would make it go again.

IFS in a wheelin rig, thats a bummer, you have plans on a solid axle? I have an 85 toyota that has spools front and rear. Plans on doing an ARB in front some day. I've know people with autos in the front of their rigs (solid axles) when ever you pick up a tire their pretty much become open so...

Yea its a little weird must be right in that middle point. But if you think about it under braking it does add a bit more stress.

Thanks for the info found it very interesting

It is a little odd that its not making noise and not having issues at stand still. But still most likely the pump is weak. It is very hard on them to run without fluid.

I got a JDM 7M and a month later rod knock. So I tore it down to freshin it up (surface block, hone, rings, bearings) turned out some little guy in japan had already done the HG but used a angle grinder with sanding pad (or something to that effect) took off about 0.006 of metal off block in a...

If you cant figure it out take it to a shop.
