  1. WTB: Bushur Sparkplug cover.

    clickNot sure it's a feasible option for you. I've just ordered this from China equivalent of ebay (taobao). Will try them out tomorrow in my carthe brackets and sliding rails for both seats costed me around 150 usd plus shipping. Will let you know how it goes if you think you may take...
  2. Help cheeky sort this idle !!!

    Hi Jeff & Paul,I did the continuity test for Pin 6 & 14 from ECU harness to respective destinations in MAF and throttle body, and I am pretty confident that I made the swap correctly. Having said that it doesn't harm for Paul to double confirm thatLogger - I will lend you my spare unit...
  3. ECU guru's please sign in at the front desk

    With limited information provided I guess it's really difficult to tell what's happening to itHave you friend, however, tried to use nylon screws + insulting tapes etc to mount the ECU so as to make it not electronically conducting to the chassis (= ground)

  7. JSchleim18

    Purchased a wastgate actuator from him, and received the package (shipped to Hong Kong) in a week time. He even refunded me the shipping cost difference after locating a cheaper shipping alternativeVery good guy to deal with. Highly recommendedYiuwa
  8. Beaner

    Good guy to deal with. Will buy stuff from him again in the future
  9. powered palm logger cable

    1. Modify your existing logger cable or made a new one with charger function according to the pin assignment of this link 2. Buy or build a DC power supply circuit that can convert 12V to 5V, and hook that up to +5V charge and ground PIN as per the information on the above linkGood luck...
  10. powered palm logger cable

    Quote: i havent had a chance to check this but. applying power to the palm shouldnt affect the ecu in the car? correct? im assuming that the pin associated with charging the palm is in no way hooked to the cars wiring?Yes, as long as you have it setup properly
  11. powered palm logger cable

    I made one for my Palm IIIc and it's been working flawlessly for years. You should search for the information on the web on what kind voltage and current that your Palm model needs and fed that to what pin in the connector (or hotsync cradle if you prefer), fabricate one accordingly with a...

  15. my poor brain and datalogers!

    Probably, but that information is yet to be documented in internetGood luckYiuwa
  16. my poor brain and datalogers!

    I assume you are talking about your car having bad fuel milage....You should look at O2-R for oxygen sensor reading of our carsAs none of you fuel trim being properly logged (E952 chip), it's difficult to tell your air/fuel mix condition. You may try to get a rough picture on it via the O2...
  17. my poor brain and datalogers!

    Good to know that it works for you1,2,3 and 4 corresponds to pages of parameters that you can select (click) for monitoring/logging. You may go through them and pick things you want. Please note that there are things that aren't exactly relevant to our cars (e.g. fuel pump). Also your...
  18. my poor brain and datalogers!

    MD165808 is a single PCB ECU, and it works well with datalogging (I have one and tried myself)Before you start logging anything you may try the 'test' mode, which could be accessed in menu pull down menu, to check whether you can connect with your ECU / get your ECU into diagnostic modeGood...
  19. my poor brain and datalogers!

    What's the part no. of your ECU, or in other word do you have a single PCB ECU? Dual-board ECU, which is very common among early RHD VR4s, doesn't work with any free dataloggers availableIf you do have a single board ECU - try to build a simple cable like this
  20. Defi BF gauges installed in A/C console ... new pics !!!

    It's would be my pleasure to be involved in the making of your 'Ultimate Galant'If you can locate the service manual of your 98' Galant air condition system it's definitely a feasible propositionThanks for the help on POR-15. Will come to pay you when we meet next time

  22. '91-'93 3KGT VR4 4 pot Calipers Installed!

    Actually it doesn't really matter what offset are your wheels made with, but the spoke pattern designYou should take your wheel to junkyard, mount it to any GTO caliper you can find to tell you for sureYiuwa
  23. Who rebuilds ISCs?

    If you try to dissemble an ISC there are 2 coils there. Use the multimeter and measure their resistance according to vfaq. Among 3 of your ISCs if you can get 2 good coils you should be able to make-up a good ISC. Don't take my word on it as I haven't try it out myself - I have only one...
  24. Failed Emissions

    If you have a logger you can tell your O2 reading right away, or else try to get a voltmeter to measure it on respective PIN in ECUIf your O2 sensor is normal it should be cycling between 0 and 0.9X volt in idle, and ~0.8x volt during WOT. A dying/dead sensor will output very low voltage...

  27. Starting the N/A to turbo, auto to 5 speed conversion

    Check your MAS 'plug's connection to ECU with multimeter, with reference to the wiring diagrams from vfaq. It really sounds like you have them wrongly wired upMAS and ECU

    Traded my JDM headlights with his 93' clear units. Smooth transition. Very nice to deal with. Recommended
  30. Part 1 of JDM headlight install

    Paul,Thanks for the great write up. They look alot better than they used to in my car! Can't wait to see how they look in your rideI may try to do that on my spare pair of JDM headlights. They are very foggy and require serious cleaning anywayYiuwa
  31. Has anyone done 3KGT brakes on their Galant?

    I have that in my car. It's pretty much the same as that of link. Like the others say finding wheels that clear the caliper would be the biggest challenge of the project. In the Hong Kong's wheel market we can only get those super expensive Japanese made models to fit. I stayed with my cheap...
  32. 3kGT VR4 front Tein HA fitment on GVR4

    My friend did a similar thing on his E39A with Tein HR from 3kGT VR4 (again because he bumped into an extremely good deal set in junkyard). His set didn't come along with pillowball upper mount, and he ended up using the stock one from E39A. It does fit but as you said the ride is extremely...
  33. Evo8 F/R seats almost finished. NEED HELP!

    Great post! I vote it to go to 'how to and info archieve' after SGTDave finished it

  36. Rear brake upgrade with E-brake

    I saw this on Taiwan Yahoohttp://tw.page.bid.yahoo.com/tw/auction/1131728652It seems that this guy has bracket kit for mitsubishi cars for rear brake upgrade (say to Nissan 300ZX dual piston set up + larger disc) which also equips with drum handbrake (for ~$550 - including calipers, 286mm...
  37. 3G or EVO MAS wiring

    I also have another question - since this MAS has round exit could it be installed right before throttle body elbow (i.e. after turbo) like the others do in GMAF setup? If that's feasible then my vent-to-atmosphere BOV won't give me wrong airflow figure after letting go some calculated air...
