  1. Hey Phil, ever thought of turning the boost down? Run a compression test and see what you find. I'm a little concerned about the temp of your spark plugs, 6 seem way too hot. I would go for at least a 7, but I prefer 8's.
  2. Anyone that was following allong, his ignition timing was off. He had his trigger angle fixed at 0. We got it set at 60 and it now holds an idle.
  3. It is very important to have your pump mounted in the lowest position in your fuel system. This is so the pump always stays wet, so it wont prime when its dry. If it is mounted high, the fuel will drain from the pump. Then when you prime the pump, the first half second it will be spinning with not lubrication(fuel). I have burnt out pumps from doing so. But I am running the MSD for my 350hp L28ET and it works fine.
  4. First thing, your battert voltage seems kind of low. Now go into the tuning bar, then accel Enrichment and just underneith the graphs, change your 100 value to 0. Then change your MAP Dot thresh to 75. Then in your MAP dot graph, make a linier line going from ~2 PW @ ~80kpa/s to about 6.7 PW @ 500 kpa/s. See if that helps.
  5. Can you email me a data log of your idle and when you hit the gas? Also send me your tune and I can take a look. But double check for vacuum leaks. Have you done the noise reduction mod? Also, under accell enrichment tuning, see if you are getting any noise through your MAP and TPS (noise will look like spikes in the graphs while the car is running).
  6. Eddie, the original spring perches are supposed to be cut off, then the coil over sleeve welded on below. P.S. - I commented on the pics on facebook.
  7. It took me a second to figure it out. That is great!
  8. All turbo 280zx's have 3.54 gears in the rear end......if I'm not mistaken.
  9. Talking to Ron is by far the best thing to do. I told him what I was looking for, and it turned out the one they have a master for just so happened to be good enough for me. But I will deffinately post befor and after dyno results of just the cam change. I just got the cam in today, BTW.
  10. Didn't you know, clutch fluid is like gas and oil. Those crazy garden gnomes come and drink it while your sleeping, so you constantly have to put more in. But seriously, I have seen it leak into the inside of the car from the master cylinder...just a thought.
  11. It is very possible. If your CAS is retarding your timing, then it will run rich. But what other sensors have you checked? Your CHTS can also cause fueling problems, and that has been a more common problem than the CAS. And you are taking about the sensor inside of the distributor, correct? How does your turbo feel? Does it spin feely? A seized turbo could choke your engine out.
  12. Are you sure your battery terminals are on tight? Weak power source could cause a lower fuel pressure? What is your ignition and fuel setup?
  13. LOVE these! If you can get something similar in a 16x9 with about a -15~ offset, you would have yourself a buyer. Very interested, keep me on your PM list.
  14. I had the horrible smoking happen to me, it ended up being 3 pistons broken at the rind lands. I will let you kow that my timing is about 21~ degrees at 15psi. I started loosing power over that number, most likely caused by detonation.
  15. Paul, your always one step ahead of the game, arnt you?
  16. I dont remeber exactly what where in MegaTuen/TunerStudio it is, but check your settings for cranking RPM's. You should have a max cranking RPM(I set mine to 450 RPM) and make sure it's not set at 0. You said there was no RPM signal? Check and see if your fuel pump relay is cutting on when you are cranking. This will tell you for sure if you are getting signal or not. If you are not getting signal, the pump wont turn on while cranking. Can you give us some more specifics about your setup? What MS and other things about your setup.
  17. Congrats man! I started smoking when i was about 15 and i quit just before I turned 19. I also dipped tobacco at the same time. I quit smoking but continued to dip. Then when the dip tore up my mouth enough, it was really easy to quit that as well because of the pain. Cold turkey is the way to go man. It's tough, but worth it. I REALLY noticed a major difference in my health after I quit, along with the health of my wallet. Good luck man!
  18. Cam went out to Isky the other day. Can't wait to get her out from paint and back on the road!

  19. A price quote from BRAAP......where is the infinity button?
  20. Lucky man!......your girlfiend is giving you money! Oh, and great find with the car by they way. What part of NC do you live in? Any plans for it?
  21. EDIT: oops, computer froze....double post.
  22. Subscribed(for future reference). I know this is an old thread, but what fan are you using? Also, what did you do for a shroud?
