Some great info in @JohnnyTightlips thread about head/block/rebuild stuffs <<HERE>>

Welcome to the forum. Lots of info here if you search around. Also, if you invest in a metal membership you can find repair manuals, wiring diagrams and the buy/sell section. All potentially helpful for your future VVT endeavors. Here is THE thread for VVT replacement provided by one of our...

Good to know. Axles are one of the hardest parts to source for the MS6 as they age.

I had an issue where the water would weep back from the drain outlet and soak the foam seal at the firewall. I then applied a zip tie to force the water to form a drip before reaching the firewall. If the drain is working properly, it should not drain into the interior. If plugged, it can...

If you have a sunroof, it is possible a drain tube had plugged causing rainwater to leak into the car. Also possible is the A/C system leaking due to a plugged HVAC case drain. Check to see if water flows out the drain tube on the firewall or try clearing it by shoving a piece of wire up if...

Are you sure your meter is set properly, or working properly? You should be poppin fuses or suffering CarBQ if power was shorting to ground.

I dont think that would be a sign of a bad clutch. Bad clutch would be slippage or burnt smells. Sometimes shift smoothness can be affected too. Sounds to me like you might have a wheel sensor issue or possibly a wheel bearing going bad. The traction control and ABS are closely related systems...

Main harness and Fuse box are an integrated single unit. Dealers wont do much when it comes to cutting and splicing.

If they are replacing the harness with the fuse box, then they will have to remove the dash harness with the main that runs to the fusebox iirc.

Do you want the good news or the bad news? Well, the good news is I have coming to me a 3bar MAP and adapter harness from CWT. I also have a Corksport group51 battery tray ordered to facilitate install of the 4" intake still in its box in the trunk. From this point I could add an S4 and a tune...

Turbocharging isnt about just adding a bigger turbo because you dont have the right type of fuel. You can do that, but it only works within a window. Choosing the right turbo for your requirements is all about efficiency. The right turbo will blow the doors off a wrong one. Here are some...

With the front wheels off the ground, turn the output shaft of the Tcase. It should be smooth. If there is any grinding or crunchy action there is big trouble. Also feel for changes in how smooth it turns. If the vibes were short lived it is possible they came from the joint failure. You...

now even better...a rotary Pinto!!?! More spending than any Pinto deserves, lol

A missed opportunity. Ive seen 2.3Lturbo pintos do 13s with stock parts. It was a slam dunk swap too.

I was on that project in the early 2000s. I had gutted an 88 Thunderbird Turbocoupe. Rebuilt the 2.3L EFI turbo intercooled engine and was looking for a body. I was looking for a 74 Pinto or a MustangII. The hotrod scene has all the front suspension options for cheap. Sold all the...

I am completely green with envy here! That is my #2 want car, immediately behind a classic 911 (equally spendy) You have same taste too. spoiler less, the round fogs, rims. I like it all...Ive always wanted Innocent Blue tho ;) Keep us informed...Ill be watching!

I had the same issue on my MS6...Also, when blleding the cutch system, there is a connection point where the line goes from hardline to flex. crack that connection and bleed to that point. Then tighten and bleed to the slave. The master dosent have enough piston throw to completely bleed the...

And track vids too!

Youve worked hard on this. Its nice to see it coming together. I think the patience is because you get to sit back and see what your work rewards you with! Need more of that exhaust...That is the best sounding Honda I have heard yet! I hope it screams up top too...that would be cake!

Aug Mosport weekend is in my calendar now. My son & I might come be spectator for a bit. ;)
