1995 GSR.....

1995 JDM GSR, usdm gsr wiring harness, jdm ecu

1993 civic cx....

no check lights....

car starts and idles fine....

but when i hit the gas and rev it, it will only let me go to 3k at the most...its like its hitting the rev limiter...

im getting the understanding that i need to not use the map sensor on the throttle body and use something else????

help...whats going on with my car..??

***it works pics towards the bottom..

Re: 1995 GSR..... (degooser)

sounds like incorrect TPS settings. did you replace the TPS on the throttle body?

make sure the TPS voltage setting is at .5 volts at idle and 4.5 volts at WOT.

200% positive that its working threw a code 21..but got rid of that quickly...

one thing is that we changed out the fuel pump to a napa one...

its getting 40 psi before we start it and 90 when the car is idling..

Re: 1995 GSR..... (axhandler)

so its a jdm gsr going into a 93 cx...

it didnt have a line going from the fuel rail to the fuel filter...

so i used the stock cx line and cap at the end of the rail...

little did i know that it is a little different for the gsr...

we just changed out the line to an integra one and we also use a cap from an integra...

boom problem solved...

runs like a champ...!!!

Yeeaaahhh, did you get the memo? You see, we're putting cover sheets on all the TPS reports now. I'll go ahead and make sure you get another copy of that memo.
