Team3S: Unorthodox Racing Underdrive Pulleys
Has anyone installed
Unorthodox Racing underdrive pulleys? What kind
of HP & Torque
gains can be expected? Would it be a more worthy of an
investment to
upgrade the fuel system and turbos first? Or would
there be a
reasonable gain with stock turbos? Any adverse
effects?
Thanks,
Chris

The tires can be sold
seperatley to this guy...thus i will sell the 17"
chromes for $350 a wheel or
best offer. Still would prefer entire
package...
Recap: Stock 17"
chrome wheels wrapped with Firestone 255/40/17
SZ50's w/less then 500 VERY
easy miles. Chromes have some curb
rash, not visible over 7ft, not visible at
night. Still shine great and get all
the looks.
Asking $1750 for the
whole deal, $1200 for the wheels seperate, $700
for the tires seperate. New
would be $3000ish

Team3S: Need TMO Datalogger but who sells it ??
During the time I was in
the States I tried to get the TMO Datalogger for my 93
car. I got some
information but finally no dealer in the States sent me an
appropriate
answer. I know that Buschur racing has it on his list but I did not
got an
answer upon my emails during the last month. The same happend to
other
dealers and I'm not sure if the guys just don't want to make any
business over
the Web. I feel a little pissed about no answers and I'm
therefore looking for
another source. Please note that I must be able to buy
the thing with credit
card as all other ways are just too expensive and
that's why I can't buy it
directly from TMO.
Thanks for any
input,

The Ray's Challenges in 18x9 should run about
$2000-2200
for the set, depending on who you buy them from. The
BF

your grand total

Actually,
both were done with stock turbos. I'm not sure about Mike's run as far as
fuel
mods are concerned, but Adam was claiming complete exhaust, intake, and
a boost controller
only. I'm not even sure fuel mods would be a great
help with stock turbos, they seem to have
a problem staying above 1
atmosphere for long in 1st and 2nd and only want to hold about .8
to
redline. Besides, isn't the point whether it was stock turbos or
not? Check out
http://www.alteredatmosphere/projects.htm,
and I'm sure Adam would tell us what he ran if
we
ask.

Intercooler Pipe Kit
I wonder if it's as complete as the HKS kit. The HKS
one had a total of 8
much larger pipes. I recall Alamo has a few pipes but
not a complete kit.
Maybe they improved?
Its interesting that neither HKS
or Alamo include a larger "Y" pipe with the
Hard pipe kit.
It really
should come with a kit as expensive as the pipes kits are. My first
car
didn't cost what these kits cost. hehe Just my 2hp

I noticed that Alamo has started to produce a hard
pipe kit for the
3000/Stealths which fit onto the Alamo intercoolers. I
also noticed the
huge price tag of $899 for it. Love those Alamo
Prices.

Hi Paul;
To reset your ECU all
you do is disconnect your Battery positive for 10 or 15 minutes,
then
reconnect. Be sure and do this when working on your car (ie: installing
new
componenets).

Couple of reasons I can
think of ..the first being saftey, as outlined in the manual (no
point in
harming it) and the second is to speed up the learning process so it does
not
have to resort data: it starts with a clean uncluttered

I can't sing high
enough praises for the quality service I have received
from Chien at Nexus
Motorsports over the last year or more.
http://www.nexusmotorsports.com
Be
patient as he is a busy guy, which further speaks to the fact that he
has
other loyal customers as well.
I have KVR carbon/kevlar pads and
KVR rotors on a '94 VR4. I have been very
happy with both.
Stopping power and consistancy is markedly improved over
stock. Expect
more brake dust if you move from from street-oriented to
performance oriented
pads. Some are better than others in that regard. I
am sure
others can comment on different
pads.

Unfortunately, I can't give you any recommendation at the moment.
Why ? Almost
all shops just DO NOT ANSWER to my emails or only after

high priority three times. Buschur, Extreme, Nexus
(Chien is very helpful if he

only ones that respond promptly
are Matt and Frank from Accellerated

unless you find two more people who

I finally went over to my F-Body
sources (Camaro/Firebird) as their prices are
better (AutoMeter, Paxton and
fuel parts) and if I know what I want they can get
it for me. Of course they
have problems when trying to get jap parts (Boost
controller, BOV).
As
calling around in the US from Europe is too expensive (and off in time)
I
need the email feature and the ability to buy the parts by credit
card.
Hope you're more of luck than me.

I'd
rather leave it plugged in unless you are doing electrical work.
I
think it would be preferable that it not have to relearn EVERYTHING,
just
the changes in the sensor calibrations that are affected by
the
modifications made. Why have the ECU relearn all the fuel trim
tables for
part throttle and idle when most likely the modifications won't
affect part
throttle as much as WOT, which comes from a static table
anyway?
Uncluttered baseline means the computer knows nothing about the
specific car
and has to figure out all of it again...

Re: Team3S: Disabling Fuel Pump
Mark;
The manual recommends that
you open the fuel pump access panel in the trunk
and unplug the connector to
the fuel pump.

I think the size
is 165mm. Yes you have to splice on a new connector.
Here is an
included post with a little more info.

more on this thanks
1st gen cars have small rectanglular
headlights. These can be
upgraded to Euro standard Hella headlamps that
accept H-4 bulbs.
They have a better reflector, clear glass, and produce a
beam with a
sharp horizontal cutoff on low beam. Also, the right side
of the beam
angles up so you can read signs. Thus, you can aim them so
the beam
cuts off at the height of someones bumper. Then when you run
brighter
bulbs, you won't be offending the oncoming traffic.. H-4
bulbs
come in a variety of wattages and a few colors too.
I currently
have Hella headlamps, clear German 80/100 watt (or 85/100
??)
H-4 bulbs,
and clear 100 watt H-3 bulbs in the stock foglamps of my '91
VR4. I
have no problems with fuses blowing or wires melting. I
tried
Imparts
Korean blue H-4 bulbs and H-3 bulbs but had trouble
with reliability
and
the law -- they are illegal. The Hella lamps
are also for off road use
only
since they are not sealed beam, but I've
been using these for over 10
years on several cars with no problem. We
don't have vehicle
inspections
in Calif. though.
H-4 bulbs are not
a direct replacement however. The stock connector
looks like this | _ /
while the H-4 connector looks like | _ | (hope I
don't
have that
reversed :)). Also the wires are switched. The Hellas come
with a
short wire converter that also won't work with the stock
connector.
You
have to cut off the stock headlight connector and splice on the
correct
connector of the H-4 convertor. There is a wiring diagram
and it is really
not that difficult for the do-it-yourselfer.
The H-3 bulbs also came with
the wrong connector. It is easy though
to cut off the spade connector
and crimp on a bullet connector.
I bought everything from Imparts at http://www.imparts.com. The
Hella
headlamps were about $80 a pair. The H-4 bulbs for about $14 a
pair.
The H-3 bulbs for my foglights were about $7 for the pair.The
Hellas
come
with 55/65 watt bulbs that I keep as spares.

Dunno...guess it's a matter of preference. Most of the
modes done initially (K&N, BC,
etc) require disconnecting the battery
positive for the saftey reason (electrical) which
you quote. I t takes the
car no time to relearn in these situations. Myself, I am always
erring on the
side caution (better safe than sorry), but if an individual finds
this
troublesome, then fill your boots. In my case, I beleive in ruling out
possible
conflicting data by disconnecting. It shouldn't conflict, and the
ECU should do what
it's supposed to do, but then my own PC shouldn't get it's
rare glitches either.
