    My new project (bye bye supra)

    I don't consider the 944 a real Porsche... Maybe it's me but it's not the normal Porsche drivetrain setup and doesn't drive anything like the rest of their product line. Porsches are always trying to kill you. Go sideways, the ass goes first, and you go flying ass first into the ditch. One...

    How much would you pay for my car???

    Can't estimate what I can't see. Also, you're in the wrong hobby if you think you're going to get back how much you put into it...

    well, you can use MAFT to use a GM style AFM in blow through mode... but it's not the ideal setup

    what is the best deal?

    SOGI mod makes it harder to shift... Buy the Redline MT-90 (available through summit racing), get the shifter bushings from Marlin Crawler, and ditch the hacked shifter...

    radiator seem credible?

    Same cheap chinese radiator more than likely made by the same chinese maker as the intercoolers all over ebay... Personally, I don't like it because you have to fabricate top mounts for it, and it looks cheap...

    straight out of a horror movie

    Well, we are someone desensatized because we hear this kinda crap all the time, and until you SEE it, or at least see the person that died, it doesn't strike home. Some people do react in such a way to make light of the situation because they don't know what to say. Saw it a LOT after 9/11...

    does e-brake ever let loose?

    Yes, you can stretch the cable... Auto cars very rarely use their E-brake, so if they don't function, they don't care. But I've never seen the ratchet mechanism slip. If you're really worried about it, the entire ratcheting mechanism and handle can be bought for less than $100 from the...

    HELP! failed smog twice!

    Low speed I think was done in second. I also only have one cat, and it's a high flow metal core cat, so it's not going to be as good as some. Fuel system is all stock.

    HELP! failed smog twice!

    OK, I'll write em up for you, I'll edit this post with the what his results where. Also, upon looking at it, I wouldn't have passed either as their levels are much lower. Typical Cali crap... EDIT: His high O2 levels and his high NOx levels compared to me looks like he's not properly...

    HELP! failed smog twice!

    He has the links to the inspection sheets in his first post. He's high on everything though not enough to fail him... As a comparison, here's what mine was with the mods listed in my sig: Limits are shown in ( ) High speed (25MPH): HC 64 (140) CO 0.05 (0.89) CO2...

    Need help with these plugs.

    Ok, looks like the pics are all taken on the driver's side, right? The last one I THINK is for the tranny sub-harness. Brown connector you figured out, first one depends a LOT on where it's located as they use that connector all over the place...

    Is It Toast?

    Do you have the funds and time to pull the engine out? It might be fine and you might be able to just throw bearings in it (if you're in there, you might as well do it), but if it starts to knock, things get worse FAST. It's really up to you. How is the oil pressure now after you put oil...

    AFM Orientation

    Nope, as long as it's not backwards it will be fine... Though... if the sensor box is on the bottom, and oil residue that made get in there will get into the box easier.
