racing logic rear full coilovers installed. i no longer have rear passenger suspension droop and the ride height has equaled out.

destroyed tosers that came out. thank god those are finally gone.

TurboMirage · 07-09-2008, 10:01 PM

all wired in. started on the first try. no codes.

klyph · 07-09-2008, 11:26 PM

You should wire an Apexi AFC in there just for good measure.

TurboMirage · 07-09-2008, 11:56 PM

i HAD one in there. it didnt work. the RPM readings were all off due to the car alarm/starter.

klyph · 07-10-2008, 12:01 AM

How in the hell would a car alarm affect the RPM signal?

TurboMirage · 07-10-2008, 08:39 AM

the starter portion of the alarm stores the RPM value so if the car is started with the remote, and is rev'd over a certain RPM it shuts the car off.

TurboMirage · 07-10-2008, 10:58 PM

okay, buttoned up and put away.

re-taped everything and double checked my soldering. everything was still good. tossing no codes.

hooray for success! tomorrow ima flash it to 1.49 see if i can get the LC1 back.

TurboMirage · 07-18-2008, 08:21 PM

well the tach and emanage are now working 100%. had issues with the RPM wire. hooked both to the CPS and voila!

fresh wash and wax

formby · 07-18-2008, 08:34 PM

looks great. last night on pinks there was a mirage with a awd eclipse swap. made me think of your car.

TurboMirage · 07-19-2008, 01:56 AM

yeah i have that episode saved

soon! maybe sooner than you think.

TurboMirage · 07-21-2008, 08:10 PM

from the HONE meet. washed/waxed and every reachable surface in the engine bay armor-alled.

efhondakid · 07-21-2008, 08:48 PM

Looks good.

Luis998 · 07-21-2008, 08:50 PM

As Paris Hilton would say, that's hot!

TurboMirage · 07-27-2008, 11:40 PM

TurboMirage · 08-01-2008, 11:02 AM

TurboMirage · 08-02-2008, 03:18 PM

started on my new swaybar bracketry.

going to make brackets off the frame rail using 2x2 square tube. probably overkill since im welding to the frame

but oh well. after working out some measurements with a ruler, i've found im going to make the brackets 9.5 inches long and add on an extra inch outward toward the bar to fill the gap. i have some things i have to move a bit first though, and the new headerback (catless) will go on next week so i can finish the drivers side bracket.

the plan:

once the brackets are up and welded into place im going to weld the grade 8 nuts to the inside of the square tube. hooray!

started making the little brackets.

LOVE having a drill press.

bolted up.

tacked things down a bit.
