I drove my car for 20 min and I noticed that my temp guage wasn't working. I stepped on the gas kinda hard and noticed that it jumped a little and went up to a little under half way which is normal. After a full stop, it went all the way down again, and then I gased it a little and it went...

I noticed that my reverse lights don't light up when backing up. It was working before. All my other lights light up except for that. I did an auto/manual swap a few years ago. The fuse is fine and the light bulbs are too. Any ideas on what to check for?

Ok, I think I was able to re-install the injectors. The car starts and idles smooth, but now I hear loud air coming from the engine bay. The air seems to be coming from or around the fuel rail on the right side. I'm not sure what the heck is going on. Did I install the injectors correctly...

After I install my 450cc DSM injectors back in my car, I'm able to start the car, but the idle just climbs higher to like 6,000 RPM. I turn the car off before it happens. What the heck? I'm pretty sure I installed it right. On the resistor box, the red wire attaches to all four yellow/black...

I have a 99 Civic with a B18b Greddy turbo and live in CA. It's time to smog it again. I was running a chipped OBD I ecu, The car has to be OBD II when smogged so I switched it out yesterday with an OBD II ecu and hooked up the crappy blue box fmu. I get a freakin CEL when I drive it for a...

I was wondering that if I swap in a GSR motor in my car, would a 99-01 GSR ecu work with that setup? I have heard that getting an oBD II ecu for my car would not work because of the immobilizer problem. Is that true? On the other hand, I did hear that an 00 GSR ecu would work, but I'm not...

Does anybody know for a fact if the 99 Civic EX brake master cylinder is bigger than the 99 Civic DX one? They look the same to me. I currently have the DX cylinder and want to know if it will make a difference in braking. The salvage guy told me that the GSR, Type-R, SI, EX are all the same...

What brake fluid do you guys recommend for the 11inch 4 pot Wilwood kit? Preferably, I'd like to buy it at a Kragen, Autozone, Pep Boys, or a Napa store. Do I have to use a special type of brake fluid for this kit if it's daily driven? Thanks for your help.

I noticed that some brake fluid was leaking out of one of the bleeder screws. The weird part is that when I tried to tighten it (Clockwise), it started to leak out even more. I think I may have stripped the threading when I re-bled the lines. Oops! It totally sucks. I need your help. What...

Hey, so what should the gas mileage be on an LS turbo? Before, I was getting about 18mpg and then I got it re-tuned with Crome. The mpg improved, but I still think it's pretty bad. The last time I filled up, I only got 23 mpg and I pretty much kept it under 3000 RPM. What's the deal??? Do...

I get a loud vibration on the driver side when accelerating or decelerating. It cruises okay on the freeway, but when I turn left, I feel the vibration. When I turn right, it doesn't vibrate as much. With that, I'm pretty sure it has something to do with my left side. I recently swapped out...

Ok, I noticed a significant difference in mpg after I got my car "Chrome"-tuned. My bro's friend did the tuning on my B18B Greddy turbo. At the same time, we also swapped out the RC 330cc injectors with some DSM injectors and the resistor box. We only tuned to 7psi and was supposed to tune to...

Hello, I just bought a thicker Koyo radiator for a honda civic si. Will the stock radiator cap work with this radiator? I know a Greddy cap will fit, but for what model? The Nissan or Civic? I have been told that the Nissan Greddy cap fits and have been told that a civic one will fit. Which...

Hello, I'm going to attempt to install a Greddy turbo timer on a 2000 Integra GSR. It seems pretty straightforward, but I just don't have a diagram of some sort that would help me identify some wires. In particular, I need to find out which wires on the ignition are "12V, "On," "ACC," "ST,"...

I've got two Wilwood brakes in the front of my civic. I've had them in there for almost two years and I'm still using the brake pads that came with them. Anyways, I noticed that whenever I apply my brakes slowly, my car starts to shake pretty bad, but when I apply the brakes fully, it doesn't...

hello, my car overheated like crazy! It's in my work garage right now. This happened as soon as I installed my new alarm system yesterday. The guys that did it, forgot to hook up my climate control that controls AC/heater, etc. Do you think it has anything to do with the climate control not...

How do you disconnect the throttle cable? I know how to remove it from the throttle rotor, but I'm not sure how to remove it from the opposite end. Please help. I'm sure it is easy. Do I just pull it out? I'm sure the end is hooked to something.

Ok, I have a 99 civic dx with 99 b18b Greddy turbo with intercooler. Everything is legal except the ECU. I'm currently running an OBD1 computer. I know for sure that I won't pass with this ECU. I do have a 99 SI ECU. I was thinking that I could swap the ECUs and hide the "Check Engine...

Ok, I have a B18b swap with a Greddy turbo. The engine is a USDM LS engine and it's the same year as my car(1999). I live in Cali and I'm up for a smog check this year and I know that I'm not going to pass. I can smell the fumes coming out of my exhaust. I'm running an OBD I LS ecu with...

Ok, here's my dilemma. I have a B18b motor in my 99 civic dx. I am currently running an OBD I LS ECU via OBD II to OBD I wire harness. My idle keeps fluctuating like crazy. Sometimes it would rev high, rev low, and would even die at idle. The idle is just bad and irritating. Somebody told...
