Jiffy Lube -- ha ha -- they live up to their name -- they'll wreck your car in a jiffy! I got weak once because I wouldn't have time to change the oil so I went there -- how about a stripped oil pan bolt, lost the bolts to the air cleaner housing (and told me my air filter was dirty when I had chang...

Thank you, both, for your replies. :D Okay, now does anyone have any idea why ATF would have leaked out? It was probably about a cup or two of ATF under the starter area. I tried tracing it but couldn't locate the source. There was also a burning smell like electrical mixed with something else. Anyo...

I wouldn't think that unplugging the ignitor would mess anything up, But i haven't ever tried to start without the ignitor unplugged. Do you have another you can test on? Did you forget to plug something else in? i don't have another ignitor to swap in. And I don't recall leaving anything else unpl...

I had to leave the ss with a friend who's a mechanic since I had to get back to work and the ss is still not running right.

I just started a new thread since it's a specific question but it may be related: http://bbs.legacycentral.org/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=51584

I'm still having issues getting my '93 ss to run right. Basically, it bucks and stalls under load. This morning I was reviewing the history of when the drivability issues began. I had overlooked one event and I'm thinking it could be the cause of the issues. Here's what happened: I had replaced the ...

Thanks for that info!

So, is it only the '04 sti rack that can be used or can sti racks of other years be used? Also, does the mod still keep the safety feature of the column collapsing in an accident?

I'm interested in knowing what is noticeably different. Are mods needed to make it fit?

That's good news! Thanks Alphius! Your input is much appreciated!

Hey guys. What would happen if a td05 were installed in place of a td04 on a Revtronix chip with nothing else changed? I know injector size matters but what about the turbo? Thanks for your help!

I've got one for sale. Please PM me if you're interested. Thanks!

So, was it the connector under the rear seat that was the problem or was it something else?

Sent you a PM.

Thanks! Please keep me posted!

It still works with the profile for an EJ20g (I think it has Ver 2 STI), but whoever made the profile has an absolute minimum of things that it reads. If you could find out the addresses for various functions on the ecu, I'm sure it would be as comprehensive as the EJ22t's profile, or more. Perhaps...

Wow gorgeous car! DITTO to that! Welcome to the board! Hope you stick around! Did you do all the swap yourself? How does the dash fit? What kind of seats have you installed? How did you get the wiring done? Etc. I know you're busy but if you could do a write-up on the different aspects of the swap ...

LOL! I just came across your post five minutes ago and am still laughing. It struck me so funny! Thanks for the laughs!

OK, I'll be waiting.

I'd like to get the fuel pump. How much shipped to 93428? You can PM if you'd like. Thanks!

Mike, what did you find out about the relays? Did you do anything that remedied the situation? The ABS pump on my '94 wagon just started running tonight. I was in good clothes and didn't want to get them dirty so I just disconnected the battery for now. But I'll need to do something about it tomorro...

Yup!

Laura, what kind of exhaust do you have? I think yours is the first I've seen with the oval tailpipe. It fits well and looks good. Also, is just the axle back aftermarket or is the whole exhaust from the turbo aftermarket?

Thanks!

I went back to see what suspension setup you're running and just realized that you already had posted the tire size and brand. Thanks for being a gentleman about it in your reply!

Those wheels look so good on that car. For some reason they usually don't but you have the perfect amount of gap. And I want that sterring wheel. The secret is the tire size - the stock 205/55's suck visually, but these don't. So, what tire size are you running on the car? (And, your ss looks GREAT!)

I did more testing on the ss today. I found that even when the engine is cold when it reaches about 2200 rpms, the engine starts stalling out. So, no longer is the stumbling/ stalling temperature sensitive. And It also doesn't matter what gear I'm in, once it reaches 2200 rpms, the stalling starts. ...

Well, the new sensor wire seems to have fixed the 22 code (knock sensor). The ss runs better. HOWEVER, it starts stuttering at about 2200 rpms when the engine gets warm. Once I start up an incline, the power drops off. If I feather the gas, I can keep the car driving but only about 10-20 mph. As lon...
