Yogourt@aol.comSubject: Team3S: ECU
problem
My 92 Stealth TT is having some problems. It is having
trouble starting and
when it does start it dies quickly. The "Check
engine" light comes on and
goes of repeatedly. When I check the
trouble codes it either gives the
signal for "every thing is normal" or "bad
ECU." Other symptoms are:
noises coming from
solenoids on firewall (FPR solenoid?)
RPM gauge moving
when engine is off
Factory boost gauge staying at 7, 14, 0
psi when ignition is on.
has fuel
pressure
has spark at plugs
starts
sometimes after turning over for a long time
When it
starts it will run smooth for a few seconds then die
suddenly.
If it is the ECU, are there any places where
I can send it to get it fixed,
or do I have to buy a used one? Where
would be the best place to get a
refurbished ECU?
Any help would be
appreciated.

Team3S: Update - my NEW rotors are warped
Just got back from the machine
shop and they were BOTH warped. He
had to take about 0.008" off of the
first one to get it true. I could SEE
the warpedness ( <-- is that a
word?) as it sat there spinning on the
machine. I'll go pick them up
after work and slap em back on and cross my
brake lines ... err
fingers.
I'm having them machined now ($16) on my dime since I want to go
to
the track tomorrow, but in other circumstances I would be talking
to
Porterfield right now. I'll probably still send them a note letting
them
know about this situation, as I don't think it's ok for a performance
shop
to deliver warped rotors, especially paying as much as we do (I know,
I
know, there ARE more expensive ones, but still).
I'll also wire-brush
the little bit of rust on the hub before I put
them back on just to be sure I
didn't have anything to do with the warping.
They felt like they fit ok the
first time and the stock rotors fit fine, so
I think my hubs should be
ok.

Team3S: High Temp EGT (oppurtunity)
Dear members
Sometimes the
manufacturers see a market in communities ... here's a chance
to proof
this.
As many of us do know the EGTs from Autometer only have a scale up
to
1600°F.
http://www.autometer.com/hp/2001_catalog/racing/racing_art/4364_65_large.jpgWell,
the meters do look good and are well priced against the competition
(talking
of the Ultra Lites) but our EGTs we often see are close to this or
even
higher. Therefore a different scale on the dial would be very nice,
like
something between 600 and 2000°F with a red or just different area
above the
"aluminum melting point". This would make reading easier as well
asa proper
scale for high temps is provided.
For further investigations and a market
estimate, I need to know how many of
us would be interested in such a product
made for us (!) ?
Please reply to me with your thoughts or just lets
discuss this opputunity
here on the list.

Team3S: RE: 3S-Racers: Running an auction
As a former employee of
FreeMarkets, Inc. (an e-commerce b-to-b company) who
has done thousands of
auctions it is really helpful to relay the bids back
and forth to each
other. Sorry this is tedious but this is why people like
FreeMarkets
get paid big bucks to do this. They fired me two months ago so
I don't
love them but they did teach me a lot so I can't burn the

This is the really fair way to make sure everyone is on

3S-Racers: Running an auction
Whew! I just completed an auction on my
Alamo intercoolers*. We did it
off-list.
In case I ever have to do
this again (for example, I am thinking about
selling the 560 injectors that I
never put in) what do you folks think is
the best way? After all, I ain't
E-bay, and relaying all the $10 and $15
increments to the various players
gets tedious.
What I finally did was tell everyone to send me one final
bid, and I would
sell to the highest bidder as of 3:00 pm today. I did not
tell the
participants what the other final bids were, and at 3:00 I declared
a
winner.
This was the only fair way I could think to do it,
especially since
everyone on this list is an electronic friend, and I didn't
want to shut
anybody out. I also did not want to create a bidding war that
would drive
the price sky high.
Should I have gone to e-bay?
Should
I have set a price and sold to the first person who met it?
One bidder said
he would top any other bid, no matter what. How do you
handle something like
that?
Do we have any list rules covering the sale of parts amongst
ourselves?
Do we need any?
I have bought and sold new and used parts
on this list for the past two
years with great success -- cuz everybody is so
HONEST here -- but this was
my first bidding war. It's
spooky.
Rich/the auctioneer
*Hey, what is it about Alamo
intercoolers? You'd think they were gold
plated or something the way people
bid on them. I get the distinct feeling
that Alamo either does not sell
the Series 1 (1-5/8 in. ports, $1894) any
more or just doesn't want to sell
them, based on the answers to questions
they gave people who inquired about
fitments and stuff. It appears that
they want to sell only the 2 in. version
(Series 2), for $3845. Any truth
to this? Has anyone successfully purchased a
set of Series 1 intercoolers
from Alamo lately? Maybe the sales people
at Alamo are just incompetent
and don't know what they have. Or maybe I
should have held out for more
money, eh?

Re: Team3S: Hood Scoop for TT
Wouldn't the best thing be to run a snorkel
like attachment or
"autonomous" air grabbing device to send the fresh air
directly
to either the Box or around the open style K&N? So you don't
have
the hot air mixing with the cool and worries about all these
pressure
zones inside the engine compartment.

> My .02...

> The double-ended scoop could
be designed with a slight "Hourglass" shape on the inside surface.
This would
accelerate the air entering the scoop and create a localized area of low
pressure over
the filter intake. This low pressure area would (could) force
the higher pressure air under the hood
(all air under the hood would be a
higher pressure as compared to the inside of the scoop) to travel
to the
filter. Granted, the whole idea to get cold, fresh air to the intake. Maybe this
could come
from an area under the car instead of on top.

straw in liquid.
The liquid is pushed up the straw towards the low pressure
of your blowing.

Maybe I could ask one of my friends (Dr.

I need
to.

Hey guys,
I am really

The shop where I bought the BOV from claims that the adapter flange they

promissed them I
would give it one last shot at trying to install it before
I ship it back. Can

right direction. Thanks in advance

On the right one, you can also see the
flange bolted on (one bolt and nut is
visible). Installation is a piece of
cake .... when the flange is
correct.

I would like to know what fuel, we should
be using in the cars, I believe
Japan has An Octane RON value of 100, here in
the UK we have 95 and 97,
should I be using some type of Octane booster to

Re: Team3S: Greddy Type - S BOV adapter flange
The flange that came with
mine was rather large for the stock hose, but I
did finally get it on.
Then after driving it and letting it heat up, I got
it on further.
Acutally I did it a couple times because I was also trying
to get it out of
the way of the linkage. The best way I found to get it out
of the way
was to zip tie the hose that connects to the flange to the intake
hose that
connects to the MAS/Air filter. This should point the BOV away
from the
linkage. You can see my other zip tie in this pic:
http://people.mn.mediaone.net/crdeutsch/BOV_006.jpgThat
one alone did not work, but once I zip tied the hose to point the BOV
away I
haven't had any problems. (I can take a pic of that too if that
would
help.)
Here's the other pics (I have 1600x1200 I can email if you need
more
detail):

Hey, Rich,
Team3S has "for sale" items listed as one of
the "rules", but it's
more like a "logical guideline" - you don't want to
bore several
hundred people to bits with bids and chat, etc. We
"suggest" a once
per week post, with an included request to keep replies
private.
Remember that not only do we have ~600 list people reading your
stuff
daily, there are also TONS of people (who are not "list joiners")
who
read our archives daily. Our site (including the Archives)
gets
almost 200,000 hits a month, so if you're not afraid of
international
sales, feel free to offer/auction car items for sale on Team3S
once
per week.
Best,
Forrest

Y-pipe. Installation is 1) take
stock BOV off; 2) put new BOV on (plenum hose
attaches to the

smartire (a wireless tire pressure and temperature
monitor)
George,
Is the SmarTire System the 2nd generation
one? Do you have the Remote
Display (LCD that can be mounted
anywhere)? How big is the display?
Where did you mount it? Do you have
any pictures we can take a look at?
How much is the system in the UK?
In the US it's cheaper to buy the
system from companies such as TireRack than
SmarTire themselves. Thanks
for offering to help my brother on this
issue. I am intrested in one of
these units also, but I'll wait another
year before getting one.

Team3S: OT: Where to report Business Interenet Problems/Fraud/etc.
Hi
folks:
I need some help on reporting a company I'm having problems with. I
ordered
some products for my VR-4 about two months ago. I still haven't
receive
them. I called and e-mailed the company every week with no
success. I sent
them my last e-mail yesterday. I am getting ready to
begin legal actions.
Any help on this subject will be greatly appreciated.

I do not even have an EGT yet, so I
would be interested--been waiting for a
good reason to change turbos
first.

I found the Eibach springs to offer a better
than expected ride. I couldn't
tell much difference as far as
ride.
