Re: Failed smog, don't know why

Ah yes, I thought you were stock(ish) as well.

Lean burn and associated temp killed the cat. That is what I meant by "something killed the cat". They generally don't fall apart like that unless...

Re: Failed smog, don't know why

If your honeycomb collapsed like that it's generally a sign of another condition that caused that failure. I've seen plenty of blown out honeycombs and most of them were from overly rich motors or...

Re: California Smog Test & Aftermarket Exhaust/Intake?

Replacing anything after the cat is fine. You will be OK for smog. You of course need to have an operational cat. Smog guys don't care about dB limits but LEOs do sometimes.

That means no on...

Re: I just lost 5mpg going to a 5 pound lighter volk wheels how is this possible

The total weight of the wheel and tire package is important, but not as important as WHERE the weight is carried on the wheel and tire.

Re: 1987 Civic sedan smog problem

Yeah, it seems to me your cat is probably ok... do cap/rotor/plugs, adjust timing, get a new fuel cap. All of that can be bought cheaply and done yourself, or if you know nothing about cars any "car...

Re: Civic vx wheels on a Honda Fit?

VX wheels are 13s right? AFAIK 13" wheels don't clear the calipers. 14s are as small as you can go on either gen (brakes are the same size)

Re: Pedal position and blipping the throttle

That's not my picture, but there are Ebay ones for $30-40. It's a chunk of metal, who cares if it's not (insert brand name here). If it was a QR or hub i'd be more concerned about who made it and...

That's actually pretty good and I suspect Patrick doesn't drive Miss Daisy.

Re: Best suspension set up for road racing

How low are you riding on those Tein Basics? If it's "slammed" the first thing you should do is raise it up a bit. Free mod.

I bet the car rolls less that way.

Who advised this? What lead to this conclusion?

With all those sensor failure codes who knows. I would be looking at electronics or electrical though, not mechanical issues.
