I know I still need to run a diagnostic, because i'm starting to think the o2 sensor I bought is wrong, also I need to find out how to ohm out the TPS, because I adjusted one of the throttle plate screws quite a bit to get a good idle. And I havn't checked the timing with a light or anything, is there adjustments like DSM s had the crank angle sensor?

Thanks I mean the car idles great but that because I adjusted those little screws, one rite near the TPS and one on the opposite side. Just hope I didn't mess anything up.

And If ANYone has info on the stalling in PARK and NEUTRAL PLEASE let me know. Weeks of searching led to nothing lol

Also I tried hooking up my coolant temp wire but the needle instantly rises to max even when cars cold. Because ive noticed the engine getting very hot, I mean after a short drive radiators super hot intake manifold is even to hot to really touch... I mean I have a new water pump new 190 degree T stat full coolant, not running lean at all, 2 good slimlines.

Thanks, I couldn't locate that plug tho my plug arrangement seems different, and I couldn't fix it Prob just go pic up a temp guage at store.
So I removed the T stat for the hell of it and filled it up with water to take it out for the night and it still got pretty hot but not as hot, seemed the faster I'd go (more wind) it was alot cooler. And besides the crappy shifting on the tranny (Wants to go threw the gears to quik at any throttle) TPS adjustment? but when I do wind out a gear like 3rd at a little less than 10lbs it pulls pretty damn hard, feels like I'm taking off in a jet A/F at 10s. Also running a huge turbo so its really laggy,
I guess Next on the list is get rid of the tranny prob go with the 5 spd cant afford the 6, or thinking about doing a turbo 350 or 400 even slapstick auto.

* I guess its time to update. Summers basically here and this is the way she'll look pretty much for the rest of summer. Its currently a 2JZGTE/ R154/3.26 rear setup at 18lbs of boost. Couldn't be more happy with how the car performs. The gears are super long and it pulls very hard throughout the power-band. Only thing holding me back from making a VIDEO for you guys is some new rear tires that I'll order Fri.

Thanks ClubLexus for all the support and help over the years

Looking good as always man. I see you are runnig a catch can now? Are you having any issues with it trying to idle funny with the PCV bypassed like that? I am considering having AN fittings put in my valve covers and running a catch can, but since I am still running the stock ECU I don't know if it will get confused and try to dump fuel or lean out at idle.

Thanks and no no issues at all running it, runs the exact same way as having a PCV. Other than my IAC bypassed but its summer so it gets to op temp quick.

Quicksc4 Looking good bro, how is the trans holding so far? i see you are ready for the summer ... i like the front bumper it look different with intercooler behind it.
I mean so far so good, still have my fingers crossed. I put that MC bushing in the shifter too so its pretty stiff shifts I'll prob end up buying more redline and changing the current MT90 out just for ensurity.

Its been like 100 out here with like 100% humidity and the cars ran fine no overheating or anything still fast in the heat Now I can finally tackle the whole A/C wiring thing since all the other B S is done!
