    Let's discuss widebands and datalogging options

    another vote for the zeitronix setup. Great tool, easy install. I have my Maf set as the user input, and its extremely accurate.

    cobra rear brake problems

    Is there much endplay in the axle? Also, which caliper brackets do you have? the cobra ones or the GT ones? I had to grind out the inside of my GT brackets a lot to get the rotors to clear.

    rear end movement (i have all solid rear bushings)

    Because the way the rear end moves with a 4 link, you're going to have lateral movement, regardless of bushing configuration. What kind of movement are you feeling? Is it side to side (perpendicular to the direction of travel) or front to back like wheelhop?

    TFI Module and Stator Replacement for $850???

    holy crap. The TFI module is under the maf on the passenger side (you can see it bolted to its heatsink), and the stator is inside the distributor. What I did was just go to the parts store, buy a distributor with a lifetime warrantee and replace mine. I ended up buying a F150 one because...

    Some odd brake issues.

    Had it at another recommended brake shop (shop #3) to test the master (since I don't have any way of working on it at my new condo), and they couldn't find anything wrong with the braking system. However, the pedal feel to me is still too soft and completely unacceptable. I guess I'll have to...

    Some odd brake issues.

    The pedal really doesn't hit the floor, it stays within a half inch of when it feels normal. However, still, right before a stop, the pedal pressure comes and goes. The pedal feels better all the way from 60-5mph, but from 5mph to a stop, the pedal "pops" and drops resistance variably. The car...

    Overheating now that I am in Arizona

    Both stock and autometer, stock hits just below the red H line, and the autometer is where I am getting my number. I don't hear bubbling or smell antifreeze Hissin, I checked your links, some good info there, but I'm still at a loss. Couldn't get the air dam mounted, couldn't access the...

    Steering wheel play 1". Can't find source.

    I've bought the MM solid shaft, it didn't do much for me in this situation. I checked all 3 of the pinch bolts (2 interior, 1 exterior) and they were all tight, no play there, I can maybe hear some play in the steering column between the shaft and the wheel, so I ordered a used one off of...

    Overheating now that I am in Arizona

    Moved from Florida to Arizona, and the car has gotten as hot as 240*. That was in traffic with the AC on, but its definately way too hot. I have a summit aluminum radiator (its mounted with all the stock blockoffs, stock fan and modified shroud to fit the radiator). 70% water 25% water 5%...

    Steering wheel play 1". Can't find source.

    Technically, I've thrown a new rack, 2 steering shafts, 2 bumpsteer kits, 2 sets of rack bushings (one poly, one aluminum) at this problem now. Hopefully today I can make some more p rogress, but I ddefinately feel like :bang:

    Oil in Intake

    worn rings/valve guides/seals. Mine soaks the intake all the time, I have worn rings, but I just deleted the PCV in an effort to reduce consumption. Running breathers is a bandaid as well.

    Steering wheel play 1". Can't find source.

    went under the dash, didn't seem to be any/much play there, but when I get it back tonight or tommorow I am going to put a wrench on it and hold the shaft better to be sure. Also getting an alignment done right now, so I'll be back to testing it on a good alignment.

    Some odd brake issues.

    How do you check the master cylinder? It was machine bled, but I checked the MS resivior, almost dry :bang: . How they missed that when flushing it I don't know. Refilling it took care of some of the spongyness, but I'm sure there's air in it again. No more pedal dropping and no more dash...

    Steering wheel play 1". Can't find source.

    I'm already above 6* on caster. Shortly I'll test the inside column, then also, AGR instructed me on how to tighten the pinion engagement. If that doesn't fly, I'll buy a new rack from summit and return this one.

    mm lower control arms

    the performance benefit is there. I noticed a huge improvement even moving from another brand of lca to the MM ones.

    Help me track down what feels like a misfire.

    Checked for lightshow, didn't see anything. Could it be a loose rocker? My valvetrain is noisy, but doesn't sound like any are out, getting good vacuum, and its idling great (E303 cam, so any vacuum loss would be pretty rough). I'll pull codes and the plugs next.
