we checked and rechecked the timing, and would adjust it as needed. turn the car off, back on, and then the problem starts back up. anyways, i sold the car last week, so it's not really a concern of mine anymore. the guy who bought it was informed of the idle problem and that i will HELP with...

having troubles getting to the iacv screw. it's starting to just idle high at 1500-1800rpm. i had the same 1/2 tank of gas in the car for about 5 months. could that affect the idle?

i'll give that a try when i get off work. thanks!

had a similar problem once. turned out i had the wrong bulbs.

i recently installed some gsr cams with jun adjustable gears in my b16a. the problem i am running into is that the car will idle really high, up to 1800rpm, when i tap the gas pedal really quick. other than that, it takes a while to warm up enough to even idle at ~1000rpm. we checked the timing...

a chick that works at my local auto zone was bragging about her street driven 450 MPH jetta that she had shipped over from germany and had parts from bmw, porsche, subaru, and mercedes under the hood. she also bragged about her reFURNISHED 1901 ltd. that was the last i ever went to that store...

recently my fuel gauge has been reading that the tank is full. sometimes the needle will go to the correct spot, but then go right back to full and stay there. i know that the tank is closer to half full, unless i'm somehow getting 250 mpg. it's a 90 hatchback with b16a. is there any wiring or a...

i have an apex'i that i got for a really good price. once everything is installed, i'll post my opinion on it.

what color is that? almost looks like the same color as my 90 hatch, which i am debating on redoing. looks nice, though.

b16b is pricey. if you buy a full b16b swap, it should come with an ecu. i doubt the y6 ecu will work with b16b, but i'm not at all certain.

i already have a bov, but if you could tell me the flange size, that would help. do you have paypal? if so, i could send the money next weekend if that's not too inconvenient.

if you would be interested in selling the piping, couplers, and intercooler i would be highly interested. please let me know.

cool, thanks for the input! so, in response to the water cooling lines, i shouldn't worry about using them? will i need to plug them up, or is it ok to just leave them be? i also have a b18a oil pan that i planned to use so i can still drive my car while i get everything ready for install. this...

ok, so i'm about to start the "planning" phase of FINALLY putting my diy turbo kit on. 2 things that i am nowhere near 100% clear... oil feed and water cool lines. i have a rinky dink t3 and am not sure of where/how to run the oil feed line to it. also coolant lines. feed from where? i assume...

don't live in illinois, but interested in what set up you have. what's it going on in what car?
