This is the reason your Throttle body stopped working and you ended up in a limp mode

Electronics / What the is EGI? (problem solved) but still dont know what egi is
« on: January 29, 2017, 12:48:54 AM »
" EGI" Relay and fuse , I am tracing these wires and the white green one seems to start at the the fuse box on the drivers side engine bay, the yellow relay goes to a 30 amp fuse a bit forward of the relay fuse box (the fuse is labeled egi ), a point in the diagnostic port and straight to the blue part of the blue and orange airbag plug.
What is egi? I thought it was a engine power thing but it seems to be air bag.
HELp please
I have figured out I was tracing a unintended wire , a black white. I now see haw this works, it is really confusing though that they they pick up power for the air bag at the egi relay

Parts WTB / Wiring harnesses wanted
« on: October 03, 2016, 05:44:30 PM »
I am interested in a front chassis harness and a dash harness for the FD. I have these things already but I would like to thin out a harness that I am not currently using, as to keep my car on the road. I would be willing to work out some sort of trade to thin out my current harness after, and sending it to you in exchange, thus we both get thinned out harnesses.

« on: September 22, 2016, 01:25:53 PM »
Boy what a shit second day this weekend, racing the m miata in a lucky dog race , a 6 hour one
my first driver puts 2 wheels off in corner 16 at ORP and flattens 2 driver side tires, and wrecks 2 wheels
he limps all the way around the couse, we do a 4 tire change to brand new rubber , and send him back out]
we swap drivers and teh next drivwer has a car in front of him go 2 wheels off and it kicks up a rock the size of a mini basket ball. He hits it with his drivers side tires
2 more flat tires and wrecked wheels
I called it over for us
once getting the car home there is a grocer list of shit that those hits fucked up. Good thing we didnt keep running the car
motor mount, FL baring, upper and lower RL A arms done, both lower rear spindle bolts done, rear subframe shifted
2 days to get it all back together

Drivetrain / My 1500 mile mcleod clutch
« on: July 29, 2016, 11:45:24 AM »
Not a single burn out, one and a half road trips and a track day....
THey are sending me new discs and are probably hosing down my pressure plate.
On the bright Side Mark, at NorCal Motorsport, AKA gnx7 took great care of me as much as possible , once seeing what happened he sent me a new flywheel disc and offered a new slave cylinder.
Macload on the other hand ....... I had to mail this pos to them and wait for them to decide it was broken.

Fabrication / HWLNO headlights
« on: October 22, 2015, 05:47:10 PM »
Because of my disappointment with a certain headlight kit in which I paid way to much money for the quality that I received, I have decided to do a "re imagining" of said kit. This is my first attempt at making a plug to make my first mold. [attachimg=1][attachimg=2][attachimg=3][attachimg=4]. I am trying to increase the flange so that I have a nice big piece to vacuum bag to.

Road Racing/Autocross / LS3 mods cam springs ect what do I want?
« on: July 24, 2015, 03:31:54 AM »
I am starting to think about my projects on the car for the fall when the the big rains come.
I would like to do some power adding to my LS3
I know this question has a ton of answers
What should I get to add power to my car?
Cam springs rocker ect
To tell you the uses of the car it is track day focused, and does a fair amount of day driving.
I would like to stay with the stock diff, I have a Kaaz LSD, but I will move on to the exploder kit if I must
I am not at all interested in a peaky HP torque band
I guess I would like more power at every rpm
This is not a stripped out race car, it still has a full interior no rollbar and about 200 pounds of sound deadening material in it I am guessing
car weighs 3100 with me in it
SO what do you think? THe only caviot I have is that it has to have more power than the crate ls3 with the asa cam the 525hp one, gotta stay ahead of the Jones you know

The Lounge / Bad vendor refoilsarl
« on: June 09, 2015, 09:01:54 PM »
I ordered freshly ground unicorn penis from this guy refoilsarl, and after not sending me my order for months, he finally sent me a copy of mein kamppf a blue plastic smurf and a travel size tub of Vaseline, clearly not what I ordered.
I would not recommend doing business with the nefarious character

Drivetrain / 2 questions
« on: June 02, 2015, 12:33:37 AM »
QUestion 1: I have taken my trans out and clutch out and am done for the day, I am at the flywheel, do you need a puller to get it off, once you have removed the bolts?
and number 2: have you ever heard of a slave cylinder leaking where it mounts on the t56 dex tranny oil into the bell housing?

Fabrication / Show me your Drive by wire pedal mount......please
« on: May 11, 2015, 06:12:00 PM »
Dear Sirs:
Trying heal toe in my RX7 is a really messy and hard maneuver to pull off, I think it is because of how the GMPP drive by wire pedal is mounted, if you have a pedal arrangement that you are happy with and can heal toe with ease, please take a pic or two to show me what you did to get it to work so well.
Regards your friend
