    EGR delete resistor plug

    Do not trick the ECU into thinking the EGR is present if its not, that creates a dangerous situation where the ECU is running advanced timing maps and reduced fuel (to account for the inert exhaust gasses that are no longer present in the combustion chamber). @Old Guy there is a single ROM bit...

    Honcho's Long Road to Imola Type-S Zero

    It might be worth replacing the U shaped guide at the bottom of the regulator with a pulley like the old hugabuga kits did. That guide is a huge source of friction on the regulator cables.

    non track use brake pads

    I've been pretty happy with Carbotech 1521 pads.

    What is the purpose of this? I don't think I've heard of a steering column failure.

    Best DRL solution - looks OEM - easy under-hood connection, converts turn signals to white DRL / amber turn

    The electrical engineer in me can't stand having resistors sitting around for no reason generating heat lol. But yes, centerpunch is correct, the resistors needed are going to be a high wattage, low resistance type so the ones you have leftover probably will not work for this. The bright...

    Best DRL solution - looks OEM - easy under-hood connection, converts turn signals to white DRL / amber turn

    @Honcho IMO the best workaround is to modify the flasher relay.

    Best DRL solution - looks OEM - easy under-hood connection, converts turn signals to white DRL / amber turn

    Not sure how I missed this thread, this is the first DRL turn signal mod that looks OEM! Might actually have to do this one. @centerpunch Joe has been selling those on Facebook for a while. Prime rules generally prohibit advertising services/products without a vendor subscription so it hasn't...

    Do noisy exhausts sacrifice significant horsepower?

    I don't think Pride exhausts are meant for anything besides noise.

    Stroker Club

    First rule of strokers is always round up. 3740cc = 3.8L, 320whp = "about 400whp", torque falling off at 7200 = "pulls hard to 8500" etc.

    bogle's 1991 mild build thread

    Running lean on hot starts is pretty normal, typically this is accounted for with a post start fuel table where the initial correction is based on coolant temp which then decays down until the O2 sensors are up to temp and can take over.

    JDM gear ratios visualized

    Yeah I was pretty underwhelmed by the JDM gears and R final drive as well. The 1-2 shift feels better of course but thats about it. A supercharger is absolutely a better way to make the car faster, but also very expensive.

    High Compression 3.2L Engine Build

    Slow and steady... I fitted a set of green bearings and torqued up the mains, then checked clearances on each journal. The service manual specifies 0.0009-0.0019" clearance on the mains, so before coatings I'm targeting ~0.0017" clearance, and after coatings are applied I'll be right around...
