    Hi all, I am doing the wiring on my new megasquirt this weekend, but am having troubles finding the right pin diagrams for my computer. The pin colours dont seem to match up with the diagrams that I have found here on the forum etc. The number on my computer is 89661-50170 and the pin colours on...

    Lexus capri

    Hi Kelvin, I think I've heard about that car, the guy I bought the Capri off mentioned he knew of a capri with a RX7 subframe in it. Very keen to chat with him about that, as I believe they are an easy swap. I will give you a call as for some reason my PM doesn't seem to be working. Cheers, Paul

    Shuddering/slipping at speed

    Not really no. It hasnt occured again, but I must admit I am still wary of it so have been reluctant to take it out of auckland JIC it craps itself. But I have been giving it a hard time when driving it around! Fuel consumption is pretty bad too. 340kms for a tank (about 60 litres) so might have...

    Shuddering/slipping at speed

    No, I dont think it did affect the speedo, but to be honest I was concentrating more on getting out of the fast lane and getting out of peoples way than what the gauges were doing! It is an annoying thing, and the worst thing about it is that I don't trust it now, at least until I narrow down...

    Shuddering/slipping at speed

    Did it also affect the speedo? I think it might have two different sensors for the speedo and speed sensor, but could be wrong!

    Shuddering/slipping at speed

    I have a VZN130 surf that we have recently installed a 1uz into. We retained the A343h surf trans and swapped the bellhousing and torque converter onto the A343 from the lexus box. I've now had this problem twice while driving on the motorway where the whole truck starts to shudder through the...

    Subaru Legacy wagon

    Any tunnel or firewall mods needed to make it fit? Did you reuse the subaru fan on the radiator? And how do you get it all under the bonnet???? Surely a lexus is a lot higher than the flat four?!

    Subaru Legacy wagon

    Ah, yet another conversion from the land of swaps! Good to see you got it in the hole, is there going to be a problem with the air intake pipe being so close to the strut tower? Nice that you didnt have to cut the sump up either. Much mods in the radiator area needed?

    1uz in to 2nd gen surf

    Ist drive today on the motorway! WAS in low reduction, hence why it wasnt driving properly. Took it out, put it in 2WD high and yep, were away! Picks upall three gears, plus overdrive nicely. Had it up to about 135-140 on the motorway with no real effort at all. Very stoked with it, only have to...

    1uz in to 2nd gen surf

    Yeah, but our two dollar coins are bigger than yours!:laughing: Two dollar being smaller than a one dollar! Whats with that??? I will see what is happening tomorrow. I struggle to understand how I can be in low reduction, but only 2WD. I know its only 2wd as I did a bit of a skid in it this...
