I have a problem occasionally with that. Shifting into 1st or even 3rd, sometime it just feels like it doesn't want to go in. I CAN force it if i push hard enough but usually i just coast for a bit and try again, and 99% of the time it does the trick. Not sure why.
PO said they swapped an R...
Saw a blue mkIV in stamford getting on I-95, nearly crashed while staring at it.
Saw a green mkIV in a driveway near my house in fairfield. Stopped a few car lengths from the stop sign to stare at it.
So if youre in CT and in a mkIV and you see a white mkIII stopped/crashed while staring...
Stamford is fine. Im in bridgeport so...Its only right down the road. I actually called them and they said theyd get back to me. that was a few days ago. Ill just wait i guess. wont have the $ for a swap until fall anyways.
Yup. I must have a r154. It is not smooth like people have described the w58 tranny. Its rough and gritty and i grind into reverse almost everytime. Ill crawl underneath once this damn new england spring rain stops.
I cant find a map of the diagnostic port. Friend of mine who works at a local shop, has a scanner but has never scanned a car older than 95. i looked online and couldn't find anything.
I'd have him figure it out, but he's doing it for free as a favor so i dont want to make him use more of...
Looking for a good shop in CT for a possible 7mge to 2jz or 7mge to built 7mgte swap. Have had a hell of a time finding a shop with experience in my preferred (2jz) swap.
I bought an 88 MKIII and the guy says it has a r154 but some people have expressed skepticism about whether it really is a r154. How can i tell? Should i just jack up the front end and look for numbers? If so, where would they be at?

Also, the guy i bought it from said " its got the 154 transmission and a turbo head but no turbo on it".
Ill go out and shoot a picture or 5 right now. Im not sure how to find out if it really is a r154. He says that when he did the auto to manual conversion, he put in a r154. Hold on for pictures of engine and car.
Im just an idiot, i checked our texts and emails. He said 7mgte and then corrected himself to 7mge. He claims to have had it turbo'd before but removed it.
It is a 7mge. I am stupid and dont listen well. haha.
Anyways it does have the r154 transmission.
I paid 1600$ for it.
Theres...
I will take picture at 8 am before heading to the dmv. From my hks airfilter to my engine is one enclosed pipe. It is not but I can remember no y's in the pipe
