    i'd like a good condition j-spec recaro passenger seat (usdm driver seat)... also a hatch shade... or whatever it's called and i'd love to find out who makes this wing :-/ even if it turns out not lookin good, i'd still like to try it on for size, just becuase i've never seen one in real...

    Oil mods and pics.

    well, great work man, that's one hell of a set up you've got there... i'd say it's safe to say you'll never have an oil related engine failure :biglaugh:

    BHG or warped head what say you?

    my car was doing similarly... i'd suggest checkin oil press. readings, if they're off, that could be your problem... either my oil journals in my crank were clogged, or my oil pump was bad, but friction from the crank would make my car run hot and overhead w/ brand new parts for every component...

    Dome light issue

    lol, i used a circuit tester, and the connector that connected to the 2 prongs on the light housing had power, but it wasn't transfering to the other side... so, even without this thread i woulda fixed it eventually, but this thread helped a lot :thumbup:

    maf light?

    reason why i replaced the motor, is at the bottom of the 1st page, but pretty much, i had a warped head and crank, and a spun rod bearing, didn't feel like going through that, and wanted a lower mileage motor + i found a 7m-gte w/ a full wiring harness, pretty much all of the electronics under...

    Problem removing crank pulley & clutch fan

    prolly not :-/, but i got it off, if i messed it up, i've got 2 spares, but i figured... metal expands when you heat it, so why not?

    maf light?

    hm... mass air flow sensor? isn't that the box right behind the intake filter? anyhow, the rad. was replaced right after i bought the car, so i don't know, but i know for a fact the resiviour was topped off and so was the rad. but the light would come on when i took left turns, not right turns...

    maf light?

    LMAO :yelrotflm , it all makes sense now... i was just curious, but that makes sense now, i was about to go buy a new maf, but the whole issue was either a. oil pump was bad (1 in a million chances) b. previous owner used oil that was 1$ per quart/didn't change the filter one way or...

    i dunno who posted the vid, but it's called a twin screw supercharger/roots type (still one supercharger)... they probably took the twin screw term a lil too far, lol:icon_smil

    maf light?

    this is really odd, pretty much the only problem i have with my car now, other than the power antenna... when i go around corners, turning left, a light comes on on my instrument pannel that looks like a orange circular air filter (like you'd find on a old muscle car) then it goes off. The...
