    Random Snapshot thread

    I was going to say that is an Audi/VW 4 wheel drive transmission. Until I saw the ugly tail lights. Nice blower setup. Custom EFI, or a Projection type system?

    Space X set to launch rocket

    http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=070320192803.o6brk708&show_article=1 Private satellite carrier SpaceX will launch its Falcon 1 rocket into space from the Marshall Islands Tuesday, nearly a year after its first attempt failed, the company said in a statement. "The flight readiness...

    I'm going to need help with this AEM...

    Because feedback control would be much easier, and open loop is a straight up guess.

    Why the MKIII?

    Originally because it was the best looking new car, not old one. That needs to be reinforced. And the 89 came out, the great lines became better, and the interior became better. That and mechanically the car was designed about as well as could be. Aside from a nearly all aluminum car to save...

    The indestructable 2JZGTE takes a shit

    Those are kind of hard to tell, unlike what seems to be his A/F ratio. Full load was only 11.x. As IJ said, I would be a little richer at that power level. It is one thing to pull some fuel at 350rwhp, another to do it with that much at stake.

    7mge ACIS system questions

    No. The air cleaner assembly, aka air box, holds the air filter. Its design also is to muffle the induction noises. The resonator is there just to muffle the noises. With out an air cleaner, you would get dirt in the engine.

    POLL TIME! (For the Supra drivers). :-)

    None of the above. Entropy gurantees that something will go wrong in a machines lifes. However, I carry nothing. This car is to reliable to need tools on board.

    2 annoying problems on my Accord

    If you have an A/C fuse, then yes. I would need to see the schematic though. If you have some lights out, maybe the A/C light is off as well, and that is what you are seeing. Your problem sounds like loose grounds, but again, a schematic would be helpful here. If there is a tech with a...

    7mge ACIS system questions

    The higher the rpm, the more horsepower the engine is converting. There is not a jump in the torque, such as some of the variable lift engines. Your car should get faster as the RPM climbs. If you feel a big boost at 4000 RPM, then you should check to see you are getting the signal, or that the...

    The indestructable 2JZGTE takes a shit

    You know, it looks to me like the bike rolled first, and the Supra still beat it. No, no. Put a JZ in it and be done with it.

    7mge ACIS system questions

    Please excuse the crudety of the image. It is not a scan, but it should be. That is a very brief overview of the theory. It has been explained many times before, but one more won't hurt anything. In short, the valve manipulates airflow to increase low end torque of the engine. The valve is...

    The indestructable 2JZGTE takes a shit

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w2sQ9I9a_Ac While I am only teasing, I thought this was fairly impressive. A claimed 199 mph is not too shabby. I don't know his gearing or tire diameter, so it can not be checked now.

    My car has a #31 engine error code HELP!

    Unless you switched to a new meter, then your test didn't confirm anything. The best way to check is on the Hz scale. Have you cleaned the meter on the inside with any sort of spray? If so, that is a very likely cause of your A/F problem.

    Lexus AFM measurements -- only 15% larger?

    JJ, autoshop said the 2JZGE is on the KV, not VAF. The PM comment was incorrect. edit: The purpose of the screw is to change the amount of air is being read by the meter. This changes the frequency, delaying fuel cut.

    Need help with a overheating issue. out of ideas...

    "Time to jack up the radiator cap and roll another one underneath it" :biglaugh: That one is an all time classic for this site. edit: One other thing is, I have seen a headgasket installed upside down. When the passages get blocked, the temps will spike.
