As I said, using a lubricant designed for LSDs with friction modifiers in manual transmissions is not recommended. Hampers synchro engagement. It's your car though ;)

The use of friction modifiers in manual transmissions is not recommended.

Ha! You're a good sport lanky ;)

Do you know what the process entails besides plating? Since straight chrome is not oil wet-able I'm assuming they channel chrome it or use ceramic impregnated (cermichrome) or something like silicon carbide chrome. Do you know? I'm curious.

It's easy enough to replace the lamp with an LED but to do what I did you'll need some sort of status output on your turbo timer. Although I've sinced learned turbo timers existed back in 1987 when I bought the car new I couldn't find one so I designed and built one from scratch. Activated by...

Ah well, can't win 'em all. Frankly, there are so many lame threads here I can't see how one could be chosen but this one: "Lankys thread...rated Boring by LuvMySilverSupra" seems to fit the bill nicely ;)

Hmmm...you should be getting a MIL code. With the coolant temp sensor disconnected (the two wire green one) the ecu is is operating at a fixed temp input. Not good. It's why I was asking the other poster what he soldered together. It'd be odd for someone to put so much work into a car and leave...

Here ya go: http://tinyurl.com/zgtcl $30, can't beat that. Most others are $90 and up. A very handy tool. This one runs off of one AAA. Not real fancy but works great. And the headphones are stereo for use with your MP3 player ;) A nice gadget for automotive electrical work is the Power...

You might want to replace it with an LED. My IGN ring is dual color: Green as usual but flashes red while the turbo timer is running.

Standby Nick and I'll hunt down the info for you. The one I have is not the only one on the market though.

What did you solder together? >>Well it's prolly not good that only my temp is the one connected<< You have only the blue one connected?

Simple answer: A phillips screwdriver.

Hold on now, how were you testing them? Describe the method you were told. Connecting across the injector is the right way. If you were using a separate ground you'd see power because it's going through the injector coil to the ground side. You need to reference the grounds coming from the ecu...

I dunno, one needs a sealed furnace and ammonia for nitriding so it can't be all that cheap. I kow lots of cams are induction harded though. I wonder if some of these knocks come from head gasket problems? As you know, nothing kills bearing quicker than coolant in the oil.

Yeah, good eye. Thats what I get for looking elsewhere ;)

Lol..ouch! ;). I can't seem to host two images in one post so here's another of the Holland chick. [URL=http://imageshack.us]URL][/

That's not a girl, that's a beached whale ;)

Lol, I bet this gal would be a handful. She's from Holland and a world record holder at 7' 4" and 320 pounds. The Targa would have to come off for this serious babe ;). http://img517.imageshack.us/my.php?image=biggirl1vw.jpg

Interesting. I wonder what they do. I thought the case was deeper using induction but I'm not sure. Fwiw, the cranks used in piston powered airplane engines are nitrided and that's only about 4-6 thou deep. Them babies run at either 100 or 75% power for hours on end and the clearences are real...

Lol, I wish I knew. I said I can hear them, I can't undertsand them. I live in Cali so I don't speak Indian, Chinese, Pakistani, Vietnamese, on and on. I only speak English and Russian ;). Ian, do you know what method is used to case harden the 7M crank? Nitriding? Is so yes, nitriding is very...
