so i bought this battery about 2 years ago and now it is already bulging out the sides. My first battery also suffered this bulge problem and i have no idea why they are doing it to me. I park the car for the winter and i do take the battery inside the house. I also trickle charge the...

i'm hitting fuel cut so i'm throwing code 34 which is abnormal turbocharger pressure. So today i checked the timing on my car with the diagnostic box jumpered. It was showing 15 degrees advanced. My question is, do i have to reset my ECU and wipe out code 34 before checking the base...

so my rear end whines, clunks, howls and is just one noisy bugger. I want to rebuild it but i know squat about differentials. I'm pretty sure i have the 3.9 gears (87 turbo, 5sp) and i want to know what parts i should source out and buy. I'm also going to decide whether to go with a 1piece...

got the car out today and did a couple of fuel cut pulls. Then i pulled out a plug and it was white. I have done nothing to my car except DDP, exhaust, intake, BOV, electric fans, hardpipes and FMIC. I'm hitting fuel cut in every gear except for first gear. I hit it in 2nd gear in the higher...

If my car isn't losing coolant, if it smokes ONLY under boost, and if it smells (not like coolant) could i be safe to say that it's my turbo going? it still boosts fine, it still sounds healthy and there is no oil on the impellers. I'm still pulling awesome vacuum 21 in/hg so i'm thinking my...

alright i bought some white side trim a while back. I'm trying to find some clips for them, but none of them fit. I need to know if the 89 clips are different from the 91-92?? I think i've tried 89 clips before, so before i order 91-92 clips i want to make sure they are different. Derek

my setup: 7mgte -stock turbo -10+ PSI -BIC DDP, BIC test pipe, tanabe cat-back -FMIC, 2.5" hardpipes -K&N FIPK now, last summer i went with the autolite coppers and had them gapped to .032". I pulled the plugs out just a while ago because i wanted to do a tune up before spring...

my motor was rebuilt about 4 years ago and at the same time i had a toyota head gasket torqued down to 75 ft/lbs with ARP bolts. I probably put about 45 000 km since the rebuild and everything is fine. Well i'm upgrading to a 57 trim ct-26 with all the necessary fuel mods. I don't plan on...

i've had this gas gauge for all of last summer and i want to fix it. I removed the panel and the needles to put in my speedhut gauges. So i put everything back in, set the gas needle to where it sat BEFORE taking the cluster apart, and put it all back together. I started the car and the...

i'm pretty sure that my CT is on its way out. On boost, it is one stinky bitch and i do see smoke. Last oil change, i didn't get the same amount of oil that i put in. So for sure i'm burning oil and i'm ONLY burning oil upon boost. The car is stored now, but if i go ahead and remove the...

car doesn't smoke on idle, normal driving, slight boost (before the wastegate opens and becomes noisy; BIC DDP). On HARD acceleration but not all the way to redline, the car just stinks bad. Probably because i yanked out the A/C and all the plumbing so there is a huge hole in the firewall...

i need to know if a catalytic coverter from a NON-TURBO will fit my TURBO. Yes or no.. i was really surprised to find out that no company makes a replacement cat for our turbo'd model....only ones i can find are the highflow ones but i just need this cat to pass my last e-test EVER so no...

i have full IC piping, FMIC, and a blitz DD BOV. It's hardly noticable at all when i release boost pressure. My friend in his 1.8T jetta only has a bosch BOV, no IC piping and only FMIC. His is very audible, MUCH louder then my blitz. I'm using the sound as a guideline because maybe i have a...

today i was fixing some terminals for my battery, and as soon as i go ahead and connect the contacts i just get huge amounts of sparking at the terminals. I quickly clamp it down and go to start my car. all i get is a single click and that's all. So i bump start it, but that doesn't work...

can someone help me, i need a 12V source at the ECU harness for my 87 turbo, manual tranny. Thanks!!

do you guys ALWAYS follow torque specs?? obviously for the motor internals yea but i'm talking wheel lug nuts, suspension pieces, drivetrain pieces......stuff like that. I usually just tighten it to feel rather then torquing it. Just want to see if eveyone else there is like me.

hey guys, my mods are simple.......BIC DDP, BIC test pipe, tanabe cat-back, 2.5" hardpipes, FMIC, blitz DD BOV, K&N FIPK, autolite 3926 copper plugs gapped correctly......those are pretty much the only power mods. Well i'm hitting fuel cut @ around 12-14 PSI ( i know it's normal), and i'm 100%...

hey, my drivers side door lock has been busted since i've owned the car so everytime i want to lock/unlock the car i have to do it from the passenger side. Well now that the car is at the bodyshop i think it's a good idea to get it replaced, but i want to use my CURRENT key. I don't want a...
