Re: Auto trans external cooler, OEM delete, questions

If you were wanting to consider warming up your a/t fluid faster (and given your application I don't see a need to) you could plumb in a physical thermostat for your a/t fluid before it goes to an...

Re: Looking for options on cable LS trans, replace or repair

If it goes away when you press the pedal its the transmission itself, one or both of the input (main)shaft bearings. When you push the pedal and hold it with the engine on, the clutch is disengaged,...

Re: Strange 1st gear shifting problem

Year make and model? And off of the top of my head, check your shifter bushings for looseness or obstruction. My next suggestion was going to be internal, such as a bad synchro or synchro spring,...

Re: Looking for options on cable LS trans, replace or repair

That's the ring gear side of the diff, if its still assembled, the gear may have damaged the housing or final drive gear on the countershaft, So prepare for it to be totaled beyond use. 1200$ for a...

Re: Auto trans external cooler, OEM delete, questions

Heh, guess you are new. Yes the automatic transmission itself has a pump in it, which generates some friction, so at idle yes it will warm itself up. The engine heat itself im sure will radiate into...

Re: Wilwood 4 piston brakes not aligned right

They aren't seating right cause the pads are hanging off the outside of the damn rotor, so they are tapering (twisting cause theyre not contacting dead flat as they should.)

Re: Need help rear end sways

Some of this may be the dynamics of the car. You have larger wheels now, unless you got pricey forged wheels I will assume your wheels are now heavier, and your tires definatly are heavier. I also...

Re: honda civic LX '00 honda civic LX '00 the Car wont shift into drive

Check the plug. The TPS and MAP sensor happen to use the same plughead, its not likely but possible they were swapped. Now if you dont hear any noise and can't shift with the engine on, sounds like...

Re: honda civic LX '00 honda civic LX '00 the Car wont shift into drive

Please rephrase that.

When the engine is on and you push the brake, do you hear a small click sound coming near the gearshift? There should be. Also are your brake lights on all the time?

Can...

Re: how much play should i have in the diff?

It's commonly said to have somewhat of a weak 3rd gear synchro, as lots of K-series transmission owners gripe about grinding when fast shifting into 3rd. Again check your axles and bearings, that's...

Re: J35A4 in EK, No VTEC

Your engine codes are putting the car into a sort of limp mode, and in doing so, VTEC will not engage. Did you bolt the engine to a manual transmission? I see you are using an automatic ECU. If this...

Re: New Slotted Rotors, labelled L and R - installed on the wrong side. Worth switchi

Dunno if I'd believe that without hard info.

As for slotting, look at the Corvette. It actually has its front rotors, one facing one direction, one the other. From testing I've seen, results when...

Re: 1994 NSX #41

I will throw in my 2 cents and reccomend AGAINST that synchromesh fluid. Its the wrong viscosity and will wear out your input shaft bearings making them noisy in as little as a few months time. Honda...

Re: "Good luck Honda from Porsche. See you on the other side."

Maybe something along the lines of "our old titanium rods had no issues :) " or somethin. Honda could put that on their NSX when Porsche buys one.

Re: 92 Civic d16z6 tranny problem

there is no b15. If its from a d15 though, that's of course gonna give a code or two. Your ECU code by the way is p28. Check your fluid first and look at the color. It should be a reddish purple...
