First, everything
should be foudn i nthe manual. Second, no, Apexi cannot
read all those
signals ! There are only a few and this standard.

Sorry, but such programs already exist !

The
knock sum is calculated by using special programming techniques that
allows
the Microcontroller free register to be programmed. It's the secret
from Todd
Day how he did it :) This is not possible in OBDII, i.e.
the
microcontroller doesn't accept those commands anymore, therefore no
chance.
Also to start with the TMO is not a good idea as it is made for the
DSM cars
and not for ours (it just works halfway on ours).
Well, good
luck ... I stopped with this project a year ago because it was
hopeless to
get knock sum out.

The clutch is slipping as of now, I can change the clutch or discount
the
price of the car. (Buyer will have a choice of a RPS clutch or a
Stock

To my knowledge, the timing belt has not been done the
second time around. I
can do the belt, or discount the car.
This car

rides very stiff. I
will be reinstalling the stock springs on the car. (add
350.00 to selling

Known issues with the
car:

Please email me directly as I don't spent much time reading the
posts. I can
supply pictures of the car for interested buyers.

Dear friends
I need some of your experience regarding my ECS.
The Sport Tour lights are
gone and the suspension is not responding. Did
someone know if the ECS unit
is fused? And if yes then when the fuse is
located? Looked at me ALLDATA CD
ROM but I haven’t found the
solution.

Team3S: '97 SOHC to 200+ hp?
List,
I have been looking around the
internet to find out
just what I need to do in order to get my '97 base
coupe over 200hp. I'm trying to hit 200hp + so
hopefully my
current car will tide me over until I pay
it off and then am able to get a
VR4. These are the
mods I am looking at right now to reach my
goal.
Please let me know if A)they will make 200+ hp or B)
what
else I need to reach this goal. Bear in mind I am
trying to do this
for as little money as possible...
K&N FIPK (already
installed)
Port and polish intake
Free flow custom exhaust with precats
removed and a
free flow main cat split to true dual exhaust in the
rear.
93 octane pump gas (already "installed")
Octane booster fuel
additive (???)
Would this help me to reach or surpass the 200hp
mark?
What else could I do that would be relatively
inexpensive to
get a little more spunk from my SOHC
base 3000GT? Any help would be
appreciated.

It depends on the organization, but most
seem to accept Snell 95 with an SA
rating. The SA calls for a nomex
liner as opposed to the M rating which is
for motorcycles and is usually an
nylon material.

Just check the bulb. To
check if the suspension is working, turn the key On
without to start the
engine. The ECS automatically goes to TOUR mode. Then
press the ECS
mode sw and you can listen the actuators adjusting the
absorbers to the Sport
mode. If the SPORT TOUR indication is not flashing
then you have not alarm of
malfunction.

25,000 miles) I
noticed it stayed on (with or without headlights on).
Apparently it is
supposed to stay on normally, I didn't even know
there was such a
light. My question is, did this affect the driving
in tour mode
when the tour light was not on? I.E. it "seems" to be
a more pleasent
ride, i.e. maybe a bit better handling and takes
the bumps
smoother. Is this just my imagination? Do I
assume
I have a loose bulb on the tour end (wouldn't it be the same
bulb
as the sport mode which always works in that mode?) or is
there
really something wrong with the suspension? The Mitsu
dealer
that checked out the suspension about a year ago said
everything
was working fine but he never noticed nor mentioned a
tour
light. Thanks ahead of time for all comments (I have the
Digest
version). Bob
