    Auto computer wiring

    I was planning on waiting to swap in a turbo motor on my 87 lx. The motor developed a severe knock two days ago so I am having to speed things up. I can get an 86 TC motor and I found a LB2 computer to go with it. My LX is an auto and I want to keep it that way for a little bit until time...

    87 n/a auto to 2.3T 5 speed

    I may have found a better solution. There is someone selling what looks like an 87 turbo coupe on craigslist for the same price as the motor and trans I found. They say it runs. It looks like hell, but all I want are the motor, trans, computer and all the other swap parts. Hopefully they...

    Interior swap questions

    How much work would the console and dash be? With the curve on the ends of the dash wouldn't that mean that the door panels would have to change too? How hard is the steering wheel to do? What about the airbag? Preston

    Lights control the radio?

    One thing I noticed is that the power and acc. wire from the radio are both wired into one wire coming out of the dash. What wire is the acc. wire coming out of the dash? Also, with the headlights on, if I take the key out the radio stays on, even when it is supposed to be in the off position...

    Lights control the radio?

    I just bought an 87 2.3l Hatchback. It had a crappy legacy tape deck in it. I took it out to put in a pioneer deck that I had lying around. Before, and now, when I turn the dimmer switch the power to the radio goes out. Also, the memory doesn;t work, everytime I turn the car on the radio is...

    Alternator rattling

    My 04 GT has about 43k on it. There is a god awful noise coming from the front of the motor that I have narrowed down to the alternator. When I hold my hand over it I can feel it shake and the pulley is wobbling like crazy. The noise sounds like loud valve chatter that goes up and down with...

    Explain firewall adjusters to me

    I always read about them but I am not to sure on how they work, or how to install one. My clutch doesn't engage until the pedal hits the floor and is hard to push the pedal down. My brother had an 03 GT that the pedal was easy to push and engaged earlier. Would a quadrant and adjuster help me...

    Putting Bassani on my pypes

    I really love the sound of the Bassani catbacks. But I already have a cat-back so I thought that I would put some Bassani mufflers on my Pypes Catback. Does anyone know where to buy and what size I need? And if I bought ones with 2.5" inlet and outlets would they slip on or would I need to...
