With a 160* your KR sensors wont even turn on, or not until the car has been running for quite awhile.
So if your seeing 8* KR when your engine is at 160* your KR sensors are not engaged and your PCM cant pull timing to to combat the KR you are seeing, therefore your engine could go boom.
Keep it safe, go with a 180*
Yea it seems "american older" cars do it alittle differently then I'm used to thanks for the information. I put a 190 in there.
Wait till you see the damage the previous owners did. I have never in my life seen such horrible shape motor mounts. The oil pan gasket had 0 silicone once I losened all the bolts it just fell off. The previous owner. Removed. Secondary 02 sensor. Removed oil pressure sensor. And oil level sensor. So I put them all back. Just gotta drill and weld for 02 sensor. About to do sway bar links. And ball joints.
Tomorrow is tr6 plugs which I just saw is 3 steps colder....great. ill try and gap to compensate. Got some wires too.
I flushed the horrid coolant out and pressureized the system to get the gunk/build up out. Filled with fresh coolant. Hopefully s/c oil and coupler come then I can fix that. Ordered suspension. Then that goes in. Then once I've checked everything else out then ill go put plates on it and daily it.
You don't really need the second o2 it doesn't anything other that set a check engine light if it's not there
You can just buy this for your Downstream o2

Well car needs to pass emmisions, and i know secondary is just a cat sniffer, i got the 02 for freezies. so i wasnt worried, i just want 0 cels.Quote:

also fond a sticker on the windsheild that said Clubgp member, too bad they arent numbered so then i can see what this guy was posting, so i know what he all jacked up.
so once i get everything all washed ill just take some random shots, then in spring, re-spray her, rubberize coat the underbody and fender walls. and then wire tuck the engine bay/paint.
O the car has been sitting outside for 1.5 year, it needs the Jliss special before i post pics lol. Im a small time photographer, so im kinda picky.

o fyi i replaced that missing center cap on my rx7 2 weeks ago lol
That sucks so bad :( How do you like that Speed 3? I really want one. I heard they're balls to the walls fast.Quote:

But thats what i love about our board we are HUGE on DIY, so we make our own Fifth port aux fuel controller setups to compensate...IE ( adding injectors and spraying into TB)
Seriously man, love the speed3 wouldnt mind a speed6. nothing like chillen in 4th gear and ripping the tires loose.
e85-downpipe-fuel pump internals tune. i was at 320hp 430trq stock turbo.
Holy SH!T! That sounds nasty! I want one so bad, I hope I can find a clean one after the GP. How's the maintenance and whatever costs on it?Quote:

i made my own from scratch water to air incooler system. only thing i didnt make was the water lines and water pump.
i highly recommend the car, go test drive one, take off traction control and take off from second gear in a low RPM, that k04 action baby.
Sounds pretty legit either way. I would love me a car like that. More fuel efficient than a GP, and would blow the doors off of a GP.Quote:
