Happy New Year to All!

It's a New Year, Century, and Millennium.  And it's time for us to
make some changes here at Team3S too.  Due to a variety of problems
with our current ISP, we have moved our list to a new internet
location.  Effective immediately - January 1st, 2000, you will need
to address future Team3S e-mail posts to:

team3s@stealth-3000gt.st

You have already been subscribed to the new list and removed from
the old one.  The Admins will retrieve and forward any old list
posts you have missed if you were away.  Send us an email if you
have missed anything.

We have also upgraded our Team3S website, and will be gradually
publishing the new pages starting Saturday, January 1, 2000, and
reasonably operational by the end of the weekend.  Please bear with
us while we are "under construction" and when you find that the
occasional link does not work.  We have a testing team working on
checking out the site, and in some cases you may try to access a
page that has simply not been published yet.  It will be located at:

http://www.stealth-3000gt.st

It will be faster, more efficient, and have a number of new
features, including a web-based searchable archive like many of you
have asked for.  One of the most important features is that you will
be able to publish your OWN web page on our site.  Your personal web
address will be:

http://www.members.stealth-3000gt.st/~YourNameHere

We, the Admins, want to publicly thank Jeff Mohler for his
assistance in setting us up on a faster-than-light server. Jeff has
volunteered to join our Administrative group to help maintain the
list!!!

You can find the eight of us, at:

I hope this doesn't come too late, but on our new Team3S website we
have a complete 60k illustrated "how-to" by Rich Leroy.  You might
want to check it out for what you did (or did not do), just as a
back-up.  Find it at:
www.stealth-3000gt.st/60k.htm .

The links and the rest of the website are still 'works in progress',
but I've put that page up in case it might help.

Good luck.

Forrest

Dave:

    One quick question before you fire up your car.  Did you make sure that
your crankshaft is in time with your cams?  The crankshaft rotates twice for
every one rotation of your cam gears.  Therefore, since your belt jumped
teeth, it is possible that your crank is 180 degrees out of time even if the
timing marks line up.  I would use the method described


Huh???  As long as the marks line up you are timed right.  I think I know
what you are getting at, but it is not possible for the crank to be 180
degrees out.  Lining up the marks ensures correct piston position.  The
crank does not care if it is on a compression or an exhaust stroke.

How do i remove the chip or whatever it is that stops my 3000gt at 120 mph
and won't allow it to go faster even though it has plenty of pedal left.

I don't know the exact answer..

But this sounds like a non-turbo. (just a guess)

Second, not to sound like your mother (coz im guilty too) but isn't 120 fast
enough?

Lastly, you may be requiring a complete ECU upgrade from a company like
G-Force etc.  But the costs involved in such an upgrade to only remove the
Attrition-Limiter (tm) may be limiting in itself.
