We suspect the ecu might be the problem. When is the best time for you that we could come up and borrow an ecu for a minute?

jacoolv6

I'm on leave so any time

Rain.

Next Saturday or sunday?

jacoolv6

jacoolv6

Sorry for the delay. This is wat I use. With no problems.

Rain.

Cool thanks, i'll pick some up tomorrow. Colt has to work in the am so we will probably be there at 3. I will send you a pm w/ my info

jacoolv6

Hey Rain,
Any prob with the ECU?

Rain.

So sorry for the late reply. I have been testing him out and finally got a handle on it. The ecu runs perfectly. The only problem that I have is shortly after warm up he goes into limp mode. Dies out at more than 1/4 throttle. What i have to do is warm up his cats completely while i am stopped, the check engine light comes on. Keep warming his cats for a min or two then turn him off then start him back up again. After that he runs perfectly.
I have been trying to decide on who's down and mid pipe i should go with.
I haven't had the time lately to work on him but i should have some time this weekend, as long as Colt doesn't have to work saturday again. Im probably going to be getting the rest of the rims and the radiator thing (forgot the name, thats leaking air) this month. I will have to see what else i can get.

I was wondering if anyone has any idea where I can get a new set of rotor housings for a 12A. Mine has some flaking on the outer sides of the housings. Does anyone have any clue on what I could/can do??

Is replating an option as well????

Rain.

So I have finally had time to work on my FD. Took the cat out, going to take the pre cat out once i get the down & mid pipe this week. Have already done some more grounding and swapped the ATS with a Pettit one. Swapped upper and lower radiator hoses with some mishimoto silicone hoses. I now have on both sets of konig rims on. Swapped out front brakes and rotors.

This weekend we are going to be changing rear brake pads, new spark plugs, and new spark plug wires.

We will be doing the Fuel filter and exhaust next weekend.

Took a pic of my FD with his new carbon fiber headlight covers. YAY!
