    Tokico struts

    Thanks, yea the numbers were def. written on with a sharpie by the previous owner. Just wanted to make sure they werent for anything I needed to be aware of. Are there any adjustments on the struts or things I should look at before installing? The Eibach springs were mounted inside when I...

    Tokico struts

    I purchased a set of these off the forum and am getting ready to install them. Does anyone know what the numbers written on them mean? The fronts say 101 at the top. The rears say 121 at the top and 106 at the bottom. Also, does driver/ passenger side matter when installing the fronts. I...

    That's good to know. I'll most likely look to get a DM 50 trim over the winter. Thanks

    Bad turbo seals

    Yea the car is using a decent amount of oil and am fairly certain it is the turbo. Even after hitting boost I can smell burning oil. Car still seems to boost and run fine though. I will look to replace this over the winter months as I take the car off insurance and it stays in the garage...

    Bad turbo seals

    Yes, it's a stock ct26....the previous owner blew the motor and had jdm 7m installed. I'm guessing the turbo came with that motor but that's all I know about it.

    Bad turbo seals

    I'm pretty sure the seals on my turbo are bad and will be rebuilding/upgrading soon. Yesterday I started my car which does not smoke on startup at all since I replaced the valve seals. I left it running in the driveway and was inside my house for about 15 min.. When I went back outside...

    HKS TEMS Controller wiring

    Yea, it makes a big difference to keep the car locked in at firm while cruising the back roads near my house. I cant wait to install the Tokico/ Eibach setup in the next month or so to see how that feels. I am aware coil overs from a handling/track perspective are better than TEMS but I don't...

    HKS TEMS Controller wiring

    Final pics after the install. One in daylight and one in the parking garage at work during the day. Some people have said the buttons aren't that bright. I disagree.

    HKS TEMS Controller wiring

    On this forum about 3 months ago someone was selling the HKS controller and Eibachs with Tokico Illuminas. I bought all of it as a package. Cant wait to get the Tokicos and springs installed next. I have seen these on Ebay every now and then. There is also a Blitz TEMS controller which is...

    HKS TEMS Controller wiring

    It's Alive!!!!!!!!! Firm locked in. So I know it works and you can hear the TEMS clicking back in the cargo area when you connect the 12V. I just need to get a loop connector for the ground wire tomorrow and put everything back together.

    HKS TEMS Controller wiring

    So mine does not have the ground loop. On the harness by the buttons I have a black wire with a spade connector to it and also the black and white wire with a spade connector on it (2nd pic in my 1st post). These are my power and ground. I am going to cut the spade connector off and add a...

    HKS TEMS Controller wiring

    Found that shit.......so the ECT panel does not exist on my car unless it is simply a cover that some one took off and lost. Below are pics of the connector I am looking for that appears to be plugged into "possibly" a ghetto junction box added by someone?? I will plug it in tomorrow and see...

    HKS TEMS Controller wiring

    Thanks, yes I have that printed out and is what I'm using for the install. There is a junction for the TEMS somewhere in the passenger side kick panel which joins the TEMS controller buttons and the TEMS computer in the trunk. This is where you tap in the hks controller. It's #5 on the first...

    HKS TEMS Controller wiring

    Also my Car is an 89+ which makes a difference. I just read some more old threads on this....I now think the two blue connectors do not go together but are used to tap into the black and white wire (power) and black wire (ground) used by the stock buttons......so Ill have to cut into the stock...

    HKS TEMS Controller wiring

    Just picked up an HKS TEMS Controller and had a few questions. I realize most people do not own one of these so I'm not sure how much help I am going to get. One pic is of the TEMS controller. There were 2 different faces for the controller. This is the newer one. There were also two...

    Blitz DD BOV

    Thanks for the response. I understand that it definitely needs to be recirculated otherwise you are releasing air that's already been accounted for. After reviewing this diagram it looks as though the stock bov and the way blitz is saying to tap in are getting you to the same spot. I will...

    Blitz DD BOV

    I had this installed a while back but my car would backfire all the time and i figured there was a leak somewhere. I removed it and the backfiring seemed to get better. I do not think I had the adjustment screw on the top tight enough. I read some threads on this came to the conclusion it's...

    Power Antenna 89+

    I removed the rear trunk trim pieces to make it easier to remove the antenna. At this point I have everything undone to remove the antenna except the metal ring holding it. Removing the ring requires removing the side spoiler piece. After looking at the two clips holding it from the underside...
