Looking for recommendations on how to refresh a stock CT-26? I'm located in Canada and shipping + $ 450USD to Driftmotion for a basic rebuild is an expensive proposition.
Here are a couple of cost effective solutions I can think of, though I am welcomed for any other opinions!
1) ~$300 CAD -...
Hi All, been awhile since I last posted on here.
I'm having some problems when I put the car in reverse.
It's an automatic and I've recently changed the rear discs/removed dust covers and changed out the leaking differential shaft seals on both sides.
Problem:
When the car is in motion...
Hello all,
My AFM isn't kind to me during cold starts or cold weather. It's very picky and only likes warmer weather...I've checked it by using a voltimeter, but not with a scope like JetJock has suggested in his many threads about AFMS... Everytime my car stumbles, it throws a 31 code. It...
I have rust that is exactly in the same area as this pic below:
What gauge metal or thickness is that area? I would take a ruler to it, but I don't think I would be too accurate. Anyone know off hand?
Btw, the pic belongs to alias adampeusch, hope you don't mind me using it.
Thanks.
I live in the GTA area, does anyone know if there are some by-laws for spraying automotive paint in a residential neighbourhood. I was told that one could be fined up to $5000 if caught. If that is true, than I don't understand why places like Canadian Tire sell whole gallons of autmotive...
Can valve guides be changed with the head attached to the block? I think they are the culprit of my smoke problem that I have been trying to hunt forever lies with the valve guides.
I just pulled out all my plugs to inspect the condition of my car... Well not so great news... All of them were pretty much black and had carbon all over them. It leads me to think that I'm burning oil... Alot of it b/c some of them are even slightly wet. I'm running crazy heavy oil 20W/50 +...
I was reading up on the online TSRM website and it mentioned this:

Intake Coolant Hose Leak
The coolant line that goes to the TB and ISC comes out of the head at the bottom of the intake runners. If the seal isn't good it...
Okay I finally got the Side Gear Shaft out and yanked out the old seal. I compared my old and new seal and they looked somewhat similar except the new toyota one has some hard metal ring around it while the other one didn't. I wonder if it corroded away or something (but then again how would it...
I have some 3 year old calipers with some Heavy rust on them... I took a wire brush and got it to bare metal, BUT it was pitted. Not sure why the calipers corroded so fast.
If I scrape off the rust with the wire wheel and leave it somewhat pitted, will the rust resurface through the Brake...
So I'm changing the side differential oil seals. I'm doing the one on the exhaust side now. How in the world do you remove the Side Gear Shaft on the differential? The whole axle itself is removed from it and all I need to do is "pop" it off. I've used a pry bar with a hammer tapping on it and...
How hard is it to remove the break/rotor dust cover? All 4 of mine are pretty damn rusty and one is just barely hanging on... I thought i would just remove them. I believe you have to take off the rotors obviously, but from there, are they simply bolted on?
In the TSRM is seems like I have to...
I recently took off my stock cat-back to repaint the muffler black and put on my DP. I noticed that there was as significant amount of water in the resonator. It was like it was FULL of water!... Mind you the car hasn't been driven for a super long time and its been worked on slowly as I get...
I'm looking to buy some vacuum hose for my new bosch bypass valve... I need a 1/4 inch inner diameter hose. Most places I've looked sell a bunch of vacuum hoses in a pack. I don't need all of them. I just need 1 foot of 1/4 inch ID hose.
Any suggestions ?
Thanks.
Supramania has exploded, it seems that everyone jumped from some other forum onto here.
I was wondering for those running a Stock Muffler, what tips can fit on them? I've heard that Nissan Maxima/Altima/Sentra tips fit on it, but I'm not 100% sure. Has anyone used some other generic dual...
Well I've been battling this issue along with many others since I've "fixed" the BHG... Its been on-going...almost 2 years now arrr...
Anyhow,
I am getting code 12 with HARD COLD starts, takes 2 cranks to get it going and then it stumbles a bit then all is fine. :1zhelp:
