  2. Non AWS trailing arm swap/ 5 lug swap.

    Read his post better...Quote: there are adjustable arms in replacement of the rear power rack it goes from the trailing arm to the sub frameThese are not the same as the rear camber arm...these go in place of the gvr4 stock rear power steering arm...
  3. Found problem, don't know the solution...

    With the key in the on position but engine not running, check to make sure there is 12+v present on one of the connector for the injector. If it is then get a noid light to plug into the injector harness and crank the engine and see if you see the noid light blipping on off. If it is then your...
  4. new owner, new engine

    Just to interject some tech content here: Don't forget to dial in the CAS base timing with a timing light. From my experience, the 5deg base timing position on the CAS is NOT when it is centered. When it is centered, CAS base timing is going to be higher than the 5deg that we should be...
  5. Sealing oil galley plug-solved

    Don't use rtv on the sealing plug. Its right next to the main bearings. Bits and pieces of rtv could made its way to the bearings and fail your motor. I dont remember off hand the brand name of the one I used at the shop. Is a big green tube of it and it has lasted me 2 years now with constant...
  6. Sealing oil galley plug-solved

    Use white teflon paste.
  7. Bad keydiver ECU? (pics)

    You can buy a single 12v LED from radioshack for under $2 and have a positive blink or no blink with the injectors. Good to keep in the tool box for future troubleshooting with ANY efi car.Quoting Barnes: I'll try to double check. The plugs sure looked wet with fuel (and smelled), but when...
  8. Bad keydiver ECU? (pics)

    When you said you have fuel, did you verify the injector operation by using a noid light? Otherwise, have you verify that the injector is opening/closing?Since another known good ecu did start the car, the failure to start *in your particular car* could be caused by 2 things. If your injector...
  9. Mitsubishi MLS headgasket

    Wizzy wheels on block deck? Bad idea.
  10. Argument with The DSM Graveyard

    Mitsugraveyard recently sent a stock flywheel to a customer of mine. It is a 6 bolt fwd turbo flywheel that has been "resurfaced" with what looks like a flap wheel. There are high and low spots and no flat spots at all around the flywheel and on top of that it is full of cracks. I said hell no...
  11. No spark nor fuel...what could this be?

    The 10A control current to the MPI relay. It is a very important fuse.Does the CEL cycle when you put the key in the ignition and click it to the "ON" position? The CEL should turn on for a little bit and then turn off, indicating the ECU booting up and readying itself.With the key in the...
  12. Manley or Eagle rods $25 difference which to choose

    Check the small rod end. They are always a bit too tight to the wrist pin.
  13. Did I just kill the engine? :(

    I know what it is not...water pump.
  14. lets talk balance shafts for a second.

    Take them "oh sh*t!" shaft out. The wear in the oil pump assembly is with the *drive* gear shaft pressing onto the drive gear shaft bore on the 9~10 o'clock position as caused by the timing belt tension pulling the shaft sideways. Basic physic and geometry. Seen this all over many many times...
