Nobody has any information on how to get the OBD2 computer to not the CELs for the missing auto tranny stuff. There has to be other states that have state inspections the require no CELs to be present for the car to pass

ok so I am preparing to do the manual w58 conversion on my sc400. I however live in a state that is pretty serious about inspection and obd2 cars which my car is a late model 97 so I have to pass the obd2 inspection. For those who are unfamiliar they plug the car into a computer and it reads any...

No sniffer test here. Also no visual. They pretty much just plug into the computer and check fro any CEL or engine codes.

I have been tossing around the idea of Individual throttle bodies on my car for a bit now. I do not need gobs of power that I would get from FI but what i want more instead is throttle response. I am coming from a uber built honda background and i remember throttle response being instant. I...

IDK if i missed it but is there a new price for the V2 fish?

well I couldn't get those two bolts out on the ater neck so I went around it and removed the starter without taking off the waterneck. It went together very fast. Runs perfectly again.

way to rub it in. next time i will consider an engine swap versus changing the starter

Does anyone want to tell me how they got to the 2 12mm bolts on the EGR pipe that connects to the back of the water neck? I couldn't get a wrench or ratchet back there due to the angle.

well I began the starter adventure tonight. I think the biggest pain is still ahead. It took me 1.5 hours to remove everything down to the lower intake manifold. I gave up at the gas lines for tonight as the engine still had some warmth to it. I'll tackle the rest of that crap tomorrow. The...

I just mod on a few other site and it seems like all the new members speak a horrible slurr of ebonics and stuff. It drives me up a wall. Its not really an issue here since this is a technical website, but everywhere else its getting bad.

Time and money of buying all new injector o-rings and what not. Thanks for clearing that up for me. Anyone have any idea on all the gaskets required?

Well I am about to tackle this job this week myself. In the tutorial on the main site it says you do not have to remove the injectors, yet later in the same tutorial it tell you how to remove the injectors. I am a little confused? I am also wondering if someone could tell me all the gaskets...

That seems to be pretty weakend. My tension has 124000 mi on it now and i have to use a wrench to move it.

Your mostly correct. We would technically not want the d-1 cause it is not self contained and that is really the only reason to use a procharger. We would use any of the P-1 series and the D-1SC. I personally think that the D-1SC is over kill though unless you are doing some sort of...

I am also eagerly awaiting SC400 procharger braket information. We will need to use a counter clockwise rotating p1sc or equivalent head unit correct?
