    Whats N/A mean?

    On a side note, NA also means infinite turbo lag. To some people. However, it isn't an issue on a C6 Z06. One other thing about things in the thread, the 7MGE most certainly does have a CPS. Both engines use the same thing, the 7MGE has the secondary ignition system integrated.

    1989 turbo targa loss of power after idle. STILL NO JOY.... Help Please...

    Stumble when you accelerate is usually air/fuel ratio. Not necessarily volume, but volume affects ratio. You need to see that the air flow meter puts out. And check codes as suggested.

    GT35R Housing Swap, Is it a PITA?

    Cartech makes high dollar, high quality manifolds in T3 and T4. Call and ask if they will do it in T3 for you, then you don't have to fight with it. Unless of course you insist on that 1.04. Trying to make power at 7500 rpm?

    noise coming from front wheels while turning

    That test was pointless beacause the suspension is not compressed. Which also indicates it problably is steering/suspension and not brakes. Although the sound of light rubbing metal does sound like it could be pads. They can make noise without applying the brakes. I can't tell from here.

    GT35R Housing Swap, Is it a PITA?

    It seems like the difficulty is the T4 housing got in the way of the oil and coolant lines, and that was the hard part. From what I read on here.

    Smoke, smells, suggestions to where to start trouble shooting?

    The smoke would clear up after starting and running for a few minutes. Unless it was missing.

    Code 51, Idle at 3K rpm, TPS?

    I swear I can't remember anything anymore. It must be the Diesel fumes.

    MHG fresh block opinions

    If he bought a long block, I was wanting to see the disassembled pictures. I trust him if he says it is good to go. Most don't do what he did.

    Looking for a 60-1 ct26

    If you think you won't have enough power, why not go with a dedicated "bolt on" which will have a much better exhaust housing and top end pull.

    MHG fresh block opinions

    When you bought yours, was it a long block, or did you buy a shortblock and head?

    MHG fresh block opinions

    I don't use the MAFT-Pro, but from what I have read about it on this site, the only thing holding it back is the people.

    weird noise near driveplate/torque converter on my 7mgte + a340e

    I hope this narrows it down for you. If you have a lift, you can have the assembly back out of the car in under 2 hours.

    MHG fresh block opinions

    Once the head is bolted on, the deck is slightly deformed. It still needs to be polished for the MHG. A good composite like the new OEM or a Permatorque from FelPro can handle quite a bit of power. Just not detonation. And on the other hand if you have detonation, better to push out a gasket the...

    a340 not acting right

    Electronics control the solenoids. If it drives normal unplugged, it has to be control, and not just stuck solenoid from varnish or something. This excludes him leaving information out of his post that he isn't telling us. Not that he is doing that, but it happens.

    CPS early/late interchange? & code 11

    I was thinking more along the lines of the myth of reseting the ECU is the problem, as though microsoft built it. But yeah I agree, clear and see what comes back.

    CPS early/late interchange? & code 11

    I am wondering why you pulled the fuse. It won't fix the wiring issue.

    the engine won't start

    My Lexus meter has "Lexus" electronics. Same part number from Fuji, it doesn't matter.
