Hi people, I had this in the electrical section but it's not getting any action so I thought I'd post here. Please read the thread :) http://www.turbobuick.com/forums/electrical-wiring/364093-security-light.html

Ok thanks a lot guys, I checked out the "how to" section and I'll tear it down and have a looksee.

Thanks for the replies guys. So what type of performance gains would an '83 turbo do on a stock motor? If it's nothing really to speak of then I should likely pull my turbo apart and have a look? Make sense? I'm not really concerned about power anyway right now. It could turn out to be my...

Hmmm. I thought of that but the dome light goes out?

Hello, I don't remember this being correct... My security light flashes when I shut off the car which is normal. But when I close the door it stays flashing? And if I touch the lock switch it stays on which is normal as well. But when I close the door is still stays on. When I unlock the...

Well the seals are shot and it's dumping oil into the motor. So seals and bearings would be needed. Other than that I assume it's ok?

Hi guys, I thought I had a turbo lined up for my 80 - off an 83 but it doesn't seem to be panning out. I have a few questions and would like some advice. Are there any good '83 turbo's out there for sale? How much $$ shipped to 58329? How much performance gains are there over the stock '80...

I was hunting for some rims for my 80 Sport Coupe and found these 2 hours away. Went in and saw them, bought them for $200, brought them home and realized one of them is smaller than the others :mad: Can somebody please confirm what they are off of? I was told 84 T-Type. Also what the...

Ok thanks. Holey crap - I just hung it on the back of the motor and all the holes lined up - so I thought I should double check :) Should've bought a lottery ticket...

Hello. I've tried searching but can't find any information. I'm replacing my flex plate and noticed there are number stamped on it. Are the numbers stamped on it supposed to determine the position that it bolts onto the crank? Thanks

I emailed back and forth a few times with Brian and he seems willing to try to figure it out. He never mentioned anything about not wanting to tune it, in fact he feels it is tune related. I feel it's tranny or mechanical so I'm just hoping making a pull with the hood up and some bodies around...

Interesting... I have an appointment on the 26th at Wall's Rod & Custom to put my car on his dyno. With the help of this board I've been able to figure out every problem except one... So I'm going to give him a shot. I'm having 14* of shift knock and hoping that we can find it on the chassis...

Hi, still having the same problems. Any advice would be appreciated.

Hi guys, fairly self explanitory ;) So far launching off trans brake at 0 psi - 60' is mid 1.60's. Right now I have the boost controller stage 1 set at 12 psi on the trans brake - but didn't have the balls to hold it to the floor and let go of the button...lol... I plan on upgrading the axles...
