if you're keeping your motor, for the most part, stock (below 400hp) its supposedly a worthwhile upgrade. they are by no means, HOT CAMS. if you're going for bigger hp goals, you'll lose some at the top end. heres a link...

you sir, are correct! -shaeff

:biggrinbo: sweet! -shaeff

haha, definately agreeing with you an an odd manner, i suppose. :wave: it's a common misconception that the starter needs to be taken out on the 89+ motors, when, infact, it doesnt for the rewire. i was just trying to make that more clear. i suppose i failed. haha. -shaeff

no. the only thing that is related to knock sensors code-wise is CODE 52 which is NOT when the sensors detect detonation. 52 is when there is a bad connection between the sensor(s) and the ECU, or when one of your KS's are malfunctioning (read dead). when knock and/or detonation is detected...

OR, you could just do it right the first time and do the SOGI re-wire. it took me less than an hour total. it might take a new guy/gal to the car about 2 hours to do. why half ass it and use the wires that are AT LEAST 13 years old!? that makes no sense. just replace them, and never deal...

i didnt have to take out my starter to do it... [edit for clarity: as ideal supra stated] -shaeff

you could just get a recirculated DDP, if you want. there are still gains from it, just have him re-route it back to where the dp is horizontal. -shaeff

code 52 is when the wires to the knock sensors, or the knock sensors themselves go bad. basically, you need to do the SOGI re-wire, and make sure your knock sensors havent shit the bed. (very unusual, they rarely go bad) many people think a code 52 means they have rodknock, which is UNTRUE...

i would be all about some CFX carbon fiber flared front fenders!!! :wiggle: -shaeff

i have a BIC ddp and LOVE it! -shaeff

i think that it would look odd because the body dips down back there, then goes back up. it's all a matter of personal preference anyway, but i wouldnt do it. -shaeff

welcome, sir. :wavey: -shaeff

heh, i used an old erector set to custom mount my rockford fosgate 6.5's in doors of my 86.5 :) it's actually a clean install too, and i wish i'd taken pics. my rockfords have a movable component mounted in the center of the woofer, so i just angled it up toward me. -shaeff

my A/C is completely pulled out, and i have no codes. i've never seen a code 51 actually be the A/C. -shaeff

i'm running Koni yellows with my eibachs, and i love them. i've got the fronts set to full firm, and the rear to full soft. (still tighter than stock) and, koni's (if i remember correctly) have a lifetime guarantee, which means that if you kill one, send it back to them and they'll send you a...

haha, you're welcome! :) that's good to know! :icon_bigg -shaeff

get some new crappy foam gaskets for the tails from the toyota dealer, and coat each side with a generous amount of grey RTV sealer. i did this, and i havent had a problem in over a year. -shaeff

yes, they fit. it's a bolt in upgrade. i wish i had a set of 90-92 speaker pods so i didnt have to custom mount my 6.5 rockfords. you're a lucky man. you should use the door skin that goes with them too, as there is a larger opening for the speakers, or just CAREFULLY widen the ones in your...

this is a MUST when i'm putting my car back together. :drool: -shaeff
