runnin stock ecu till the baby comes "woman is prego" so i have a car to drive lol. but once i get there i will get the good stuff. :) just tryin to make a reliable almost stock 10 psi mk3 pos

so tested the egr valve and it stuck open but not all the way. gonna take it off and go from there. ive read that it isnt good to remove the egr unless you have a japanese ecu. is this right?

wasnt kiddin. eliminated that i think. but when my car gets hot it studders at an idle but drives great. thinkin a vacume leak when it gets hot or egr valve problem? any ideas. i have totally rewired the cps and coil pack and 02 sensor

so just went to woodburn dragstrip. first time my car has been runnin in a long time. think i blew the headgasket lol

so int the end i ended up making lines for about 60 bucks and then using the adapters to the turbo and block. the return line was only like 6 an which is about 3/8s lol

my favorite color is green but its a bit much for me. maybe if the side moulding was green. on the other note. it doesnt look bad for 400$

so made ne lines for the whole soft line kit. off to the woodburn dragstrip on sunday :)

google it and you will find somethin im sure. pretty sure driftmotion makes one

and done for the night. haha. the oil drain/engine fitting doesnt fit and gotta bore out the bolt holes to make it fit.

and it took 1.5 hours to get the damn banjo fitting to line up cuz there are three different fittings that have to be aligned perfectly. it barely fits and bad at that. ive been a tech for ten years and that crap was gay lol

well i had to cut six inches off of it and will hace to get an an fitting to replace one side. i need my car runnin now though so this is what i did to bandaid it

so i got my softline kit today. less than satisfied with it. uggh

thanks.... cant wait to see the finished product

this is the kit im modifying. RIP solara

so i decided to just buy a softline kit for the turbo cuz its cheaper. meanwhile i have a trd solara kit from my last car and got the inkling to see if i could make it fit this!!!!!!!!! lol. lookin good so far lots of heat gun and cuttin

so i got her together and runnin and now im tearin her apart again lol. customizin the turbo inlet/drain and more useless crap to make her look good

i also dig the flat black. one of the only decent flat paint jobs ive seen!

so i polished my turbo and resealed about every gasket. new timing belt, water pump and some other goodies. just started her up but far to go

i saw the same thing with the paint but she lookin a hell of alot better. wet sanding and hours of tedious prep work will do you wonders and dont forget about plenty of ventilation :)
