man im getting so irritated with my car. my motor wont start and ive tried everything. its really making me mad but hey what can i do. if i can't figure it out soon im just gonna sell it for maybe 1500-2000 bucks. its a 1987 original TII and its got a low mileage JDM 91 TurboII that doesn't want to start. bet its because i can't get the wiring right. im wiring retarded. sigh im gonna miss it

 

How is the wiring different?

 

im using the 87 TII harness, ECU and injectors and i had to use the intake manifolds too cuz the JDM ones broke but i think i mixed up the injector plugs

 

Got any pics of the car? I'm looking for another TII

well...you need the S5 harness and ECU for it to work.

 

why not just have someone fix it?

 

which injectors did you use?

 

i was told by the smaller dave from speedmachine to use my s4 harness, ECU, AFM and manifolds.

 

injectors being different would not keep it from starting. It would make it run "different" but it would start. there is a porblem elsewhere. and I would look at the ECU/harness combo.

 

correct me if i am a wrong but if you got s4 manifolds, injectors, afm, etc for all the ecm is concerned its an s4? aside from rotor compression numbers and the front cover, isn't the remaining difference between the s4 and s5 shortblock pretty trivial?

where are you in san diego?

 

^^^that is true.

 

paradise hills area. i had to use my s4 manifolds because my s5 LIM broke. its funny cuz no one has ever seen them break in that spot.

anyone ever seen that before?

 

looks like the UIM was pried on against the studs, never seen that before though.

 

i didn't even torque them down either. i just hand tightend them with a ratchet

 

Ha ha i have done that not quite as bad but broke that bad boy off like that

 

just keep at it.

does the motor turn itself? spark? starter? compression?

 

You should just "JUNK IT" since there is no hope for it. I will give ya $400 and I have free towing. Im being generous today.

 

thanks for the low ball but dont try to say i should junk it when it has alot of potential. theres nothing seriously wrong with it and if anything i can just send it somewhere to get it fixed and sell it for more than your 3x's more than your 400 bucks

oh jayurai the motor cranks, all wires are sparking, all plugs are clean, and has stock compression on all rotors. it just wont crank over and start. it did that once but thats when my manifold broke :-(

 

400 x 3 =1200. Ok, you got a deal.

 

WOAH, wacky going into 4 digit numbers, dayum talk about a high baller

 

hell yeah, so I can sell it for more! Im a businessman like Kori Yaki

 

dude wth is your problem

 

you said $400 x 3. so thats how much im buying it for.

 

i wouldn't even sell it to you anyways
