    seeking advice on code 52

    The ECU fail-safe mode will not cause the car not to start...it's whole purpose is to allow the car to run so it can get to a place to be fixed. Your no start problem lies elsewhere...I would check the CPS wiring and it's connector. In any case, the code 52 needs to be fixed. Shaeff makes a...

    what's an alcoholic??

    First - If you realize it, that is step 1. Second - Get help...it is extraordinarily difficult to stop this on your own.

    W58 on 7M-GTE help

    What could possibily make you think a R154 clutch would fit on a W58? (Why not just use a W58 clutch?)

    Finally! Where to source a vented gas cap!

    The only thing that's retarded about the info in this thread is your post. I could care less that you've done it and shot the crap out of the CC. You (like a lot of others) have no clue as to what the CC actually does. On this last note of stupidity, this thread is closed.

    My engine mount fell off!

    Somehow this doesn't surprise me. ;) I would not drive it missing a motor mount. Hope that the welds didn't pop on the subframe and replace it ASAP.

    BG syncroShift 2 ??

    ^^^ And, there's been several others here that had the exact same experience with RP gear oil. StiCk3 - believe what you want, but your earlier posts made it sound like RP 75W-140 was the way to go...it's not. That includes any gear oil with the friction modifier already in it.

    The engine bay grounds have nothing to do with the igniter....it grounds through it's case. The problem is the igniter case is not a very effective ground...here is a thread for a proper igniter ground: http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=52217 Here is an excellent "how to" for...

    BG syncroShift 2 ??

    The only post based on fact in that thread was #11...It's funny you went to the TRSM for the spec on the differential and ignored it for the tranny. You still have not read that thread above, have you? That the friction modifiers in RP can (and will) damage the syncro's over time. That the...

    oil pressure too high

    Test the pressure at the stock location. BTW - that is where you want to read pressure from anyway...it is the most accurate and reads actual pressure being supplied to the bearings. Where you have it now, depending on pre-filter or post filter on the sandwich plate, may be subject to filter...

    Navy....thinking aobut joining

    Hate to burst the bubble on the AF, but there are A LOT of AF personnel on the ground in Iraq and Afghanistan, including security forces for facility protection. the difference is you generally will not see AF guys going on patrol, with the exception of forward air controllers, rescue, and...

    oil pressure too high

    Pete - What are you using on the block to feed the cooler circuit? Is the Prosport sandwich plate's only function for the oil pressure & temp sensors? When you say on the filter relocation head, where exactly? The conventional or bypass filter side? It's very possible it's the sensor ;)

    Problems after coilover install....

    Maybe you should stop "guessing"...especially in the Tech section.

    need an educated opinion

    The HKS Stopper is the best...it's also the most expensive and the least tolerant of higher than spec (50) RA. It only comes in 1mm and 2mm thickness as well....you need to take that into consideration if you want to keep stock compression or not. The rest are the same bead design. Like I...

    need advice

    It's because both you guys don't take the time to learn how to use it. Rayallo1 - continue to avoid using the search function and you will get the same treatment. There is tons of info here...how about just looking through the Build Gallery? That was the response Hippie got when his...

    Bogging WOT??

    Yes, you are that far off. The OP needs to fix the code 52 and go from there. Any other speculation is useless at this point...he doesn't need it and it will not help. All it will serve to do is cause a vector off on a dead-end tangent. This kind of thing needs to stop in the Tech Section...

    ARP head studs

    That's fine as long as you realize it's the wrong size. For something as important as the head studs, I'm going to get the correct size ;)
