    Build Thread My First Notch Build Thread - Remember me?!

    ok, if you have the car torn down that far, just yard out the entire body harness from the 93. learn how it comes out. yard out your 88 body harness and replace with the 93 you will have to wire it from where it pops through the dash all the way back to the rear lights and fuel tank. ITS NOT...

    Manual To Automatic Transmission Help

    check under both drivers seats, if one or the other is missing the fuel pump relay under the seat, might be stuffed under the carpet so check there. Im betting the 93 will have the fuel pump relay under the hood. the entire body harness has to come over. If you get it all swapped and go to...

    Manual To Automatic Transmission Help

    I just did a swap. Gigantic pain in the ass and I had all winter and a 2 car garage. Have you thought about exhaust? Brake line on the pass side will hit the exhaust. Need to swap or bend new lines. Pita. 7.5 rear end in the 2.3 = boom. Swap. Power steering will need to be sorted out...

    Upr C/c Install Question

    the instructions make mention of a bushing, which I am not finding in the diagram, or in my parts inventory. pictures on the internet dont seem to show a bushing, but I am not sure. it doesnt look like a bushing would do too much good here, since the strut appears to lock into the bearing...

    Crankcase Pressure

    valve seals in the heads. might be blowing out one or two intake valves, pressurizing the crank case, and then blowing oil in through an exhaust valve seal. I think if you vented a piston or hurt the rings, it would be running pretty bad.

    89 Lx Auto With 4:10 Gear Ok For Daily Drive ?

    whats the consensus for making power forced induction? I am starting to wonder if you want a 2.72 or 3.08 to keep you in the gear longer making power. especially if you are turbo to give them more time in boost. right now ive got around 3.00 (just spinning the input shaft and counting how...

    Wheels-Tires Do These Tires Make Me Look Fat?

    I have lowering springs on my 92 hatch 4cyl swap. The donor 87 didnt have the quad shocks I keep hearing about. Should I source some shocks and install them, or put in 9 inch rims? I like the look of the Cobra rs or 03 Cobra. Im still 4 lug. What size rim/tire looks good/fits good/hooks...
