    For CA owners - SB 712 (Leno's Law) passes in Senate

    The law submitted regarding a 35 year old classic car being exempt from emissions testing has passed the Senate (6/4/25) with a vote of 32-3 and is moving to the Assembly. No date has been set for the Assembly vote but good news so far. I just smogged my '91, valid for two years, so if the...

    How is the limited slip suppose to feel...

    ... when turning and moving really slowly? I back out of a steep driveway while turning or do a Y-turn at my shop and the transmission acts like it's fighting itself to turn. Makes a louder than normal gear noise for about 50 feet then clears up. I recently replaced the clutch with an SOS...

    Another CA emissions test thread... Opinions wanted

    Got my '91 with 180k tested yesterday and although it was better than I expected it fell short of passing. High NOx at the 15mph test, otherwise the rest of the numbers were great. I trust the guy doing the test and he wanted me to put 1/4-1/2 tank of Chevron 91 octane in before the test but I...

    Ignition coil replacement?

    I need one coil for testing my 91 and Amayama shows a replacement for the original. The part number seems to also be for a Legend? What are you guys buying these days? Edit: Found some info on the coils. I may just replace all six since the ones on the motor may be original. No history...

    Cranks but won't start

    Just did a timing belt, water pump, LMA, gaskets and clutch and after putting it back together it cranks but won't fire. It also sat for 12 years and had some rats visit. Only chewed one wire that I could find and everything looked really good when apart. Now it cranks but doesn't fire...

    Clutch damper delete - what's your choice?

    I've noticed a few different solutions for the clutch damper delete. Do you guys have a favorite? Some seem pretty pricey considering what it's doing. I'd be fine with a bent line with fittings but the hose replacement to bypass directly to the slave looks simple too. I'm not worried about...

    List of things to replace while engine is out? And where to buy?

    MY1991. I've searched around and found a list of "23 hoses" to replace while I have my engine out. It's an old list but assume it wouldn't change! I guess my question is more about where the best place is to buy them. Do you guys have a favorite? I'm assuming OEM is best? The drive train...

    Need to replace clutch. Which one should I get?

    91 with a bad clutch. It's been sitting in storage for years and I'll be getting to it later this year (I hope), but I want to start getting parts together. Everything is stock, I only drive on the street, I'm an old man so I'm not as hard on cars as I used to be. I've looked around for other...
