1987 tii

New member and it took way too long to get my car back on the road this summer. Attaching a few pictures. Love to read some comments.

John

Welcome to the board.

That car looks clean!!! I like it. Any details you can share ... like is that an RB exhaust? Also, what wheels are those ... OZs?

Good eyes. 17" OZ Superleggera (sp) in gun metal. Original paint and 81,000 kms. Engine had to be rebuilt because I had a small crack in one housing so i took the opportunity to add 3mm seals, bigger fuel pump and injectors, piggyback computer, SS exhaust and new suspension. When i finally got out to drive this summer had many people asking about the car because there are so few of them on the road. It drives and sounds amazing but I wish I could solve the small hesitation around 3800rpm. Installed another ground but that did not fix the problem.

Here are some 3800 RPM hesitation threads. Maybe one of them can help.

What injectors did you install? How long ago? And have you confirmed that the secondaries are actually firing when called upon?

That original paint looks immaculate and even all of the trim looks new also. It would be hard to find an FC in that condition even 10 years ago.

Thanks for the feedback. Car goes away this month so I can figure out what is next on the list of "things to do".

make sure to check your ecu ground and grounds under the UIM after that try to calibrate the TPS for the hesitation problem. car looks great!
