Good day! After 30 years my passenger side door lock is about kaput and I'm not able to find some where online that I can but a new set for each door. If its warm out, the door will generally lock, but as it gets colder, it will not activate the lock; I have to manually lock it. I was able to...

I'm trying to find the source of an oil leak and was wondering if anyone else has seen these symptoms. When I drive the car and get back home, it drips oil directly under the rear of the transmission and cross- member support bar. I put paper under to catch it and it's motor oil and not...

I am troubleshooting a timing issue with my BC 264 cams and I am returning to the basics and need to make sure the cams are properly degreed in. My initial question, for anyone who has experience doing this, is it possible to attach the degree wheel to the harmonic balancer, or do I need to...

I recently rebuilt my motor and I installed BC valves, springs and 264 cams with adjustable cam gears. To get the engine to idle right I advanced the exhaust +4 and the intake +2. The engine idles well, but I am unable to get the timing anywhere close to spec. With the engine at TDS, I tried...

Greetings! I am seeing some odd behavior from my Aeromotive FPR that I think is a possible diaphragm issue with the FPR and wanted to run it by the board to see if anyone has an input. First, allow me to quickly provide some details that will help explain the situation. The FPR is connected...

I have a question about a DP/CAT combo, similar to the stock set up. I am failing emissions hard (High HC and CO) and about the only new thing I can try is to get a temporary DP and couple it with an additional CAT. Already have a new O2 sensor, CAT and inspected and cleaned all the emissions...

So I have an 87 Turbo; see sig for mods. Anyhoo, I have several symptoms to a problem and I need some help with the root cause. She starts ok, but the idle quickly begins to hesitate and the car will eventually die; giving it a little throttle will keep it alive, but it sounds pretty rough...

I've got a strange problem I'm dealing with and am at a point I need help. The car will start and idle nicely for about 1-2 minutes, then the vacuum starts to drop; at first it holds around 14psi, then after a minute or so, it starts to drop. Once the vacuum drops, the care starts to idle...

Due to the bizarre behavior of this problem, the explanation of what I did that led to the ignition breaking is a bit long. The jist is, I'm not getting spark at the coil pack. If you don't want to read the long story, I highlighted a few key points in blue and you can scroll to the bottom for...

This is hilarious... I saw this on an Evo board. Instead of me trying to explain, check it out: Sleeping on the Job

I am getting ready to install the MAP ECU in my '87 turbo and was wondering if I could have someone verify the wires I have identified: 12v Ign - black/red Ground - brown TPS Input (VTA) - white/red Igniter Input (IGT) - green o2 Sensor Input (OX1) - tan AFM (THA) - green AFM (VS) -...

What da?!? Yes, I actually want less boost :icon_conf I know that by lengthening the actuator bar, the boost will go down and by shortening it, the boost will go up. The problem I run into is if the actuator bar is too long, it will constantly leave the pressure relief valve in the...

Saw this today... really good deal for $253. Down side is that it doesn't log. AEM Wideband

I was going for a quick drive the other night and was boosting around 12 psi, then all of sudden the car would not boost and it was running very rich. If I give it constant gas it spits and sputters and will stall if the car is not moving. I was only a short distance from my house and was able...

I've seen this a few times in e-mails, and thought I'd post one of them... it's pretty interesting actually. Who wants to be the first to try this on a school paper or work e-mail - lol :naughty:

I recently installed a new Blitz SBC-ID III and am having problems getting the function of controlling the boost to work properly. I posted the following in SF with no luck and am hoping someone here can help out. ******** I have an 87 with a TD06 turbo with an actuator. The pressure for...

This does it little justice... I love it out here.

Check out this video... be patient through the short part about the bike. This car would be sooo much fun to drive, and for $40K USD, I don't think you'll find anything any faster. Giddy Up

Ok... late last year I built a template for my rear hatch area. I wanted to design a rear hatch template that had an amp enclosure, had access to the spare tire and maintained access to the side storage areas and panels (Little black storage tray area). But above all, I wanted something unique...

This may not make much sense, but I'll try to make the most of it (I made a few references to help below)... I bought a used boost controller a while back, and I just finally got around to installing it. Yada yada yada, it doesn't work. The display works and I am seeing voltage on the wiring...
