    Any reason for installing a nitrous kit? Plus some questions on what I have already.

    I've been out of the game for a while and my TTA has been on the back burner so I haven 't been following much. When I bought my TTA over 10 years ago I didn't realize that it had one time had a nitrous kit on it. My up pipe from the intercooler has a small bracket to mount solenoids on it plus...

    TH400 Into My GN

    Alright i'll make this a long story short. I was building a race car of sorts and collecting parts for it when in the meantime I realized I don't have the time to really complete a car of this magnitude. It was to be a large single turbo (101 mm) LSX with TH400. Well since i'm killing off this...

    Strange electrical problems (Long with Cliffs)

    Cliffs are down below. Alright i've asked about a few separate things but now I think I figured out where these problems have come from and it looks to be all my fault. Back when I bought this car it needed some work so I decided I would do some upgrades while I was at it. I took off the...

    How do I get Tranny in neutral?

    Bought a project GN and I had trouble getting it on the flatbed because the wheels were locked. The shifter moved back and forth like it was disconnected from the trans so I assumed thats all it was. Got it home and finally got it up to where I could see what happened and found out that not only...

    Battery will not charge

    Well I am having a strange problem with my T Type. For some reason I can not get the battery to hold a charge. I think it is possible that it has something to do with the dash but I wanted some input before dumping the money into it. So i'll go into what it's been doing to me. This is a digital...

    Finally getting my trans fixed at Dynotech

    Well shes been up at Dynotech for almost a week now. Getting a new built trans and a new 3200 stall converter installed. It took me long enough but I finally got a chance to stop at Dynotech and sit and talk with Eric and he was extremly knowledgeable. While it was there I asked him to look over...

    So who was that I met on 35 in NJ!? (V. First day WH1 on road!)

    Hey ran into a nice guy (Forgive my memory but I believe it was Matt?) out on the road today trying to steal my car off me haha. :D Today was my first honest day out on the road with the WH1 since I bought it 3 months ago. Inspected and running well and had just replaced the radiator that...

    Could it run with 60 LB Injectors on 42.5 Chip?

    Been working on the car for a while and its finally at the point where it could be started. I have a chip on order from Turbotweak but I also have a chip for 42.5 # injectors laying around. I just wanted to get the car to run and see if there was anything else I needed to take care of before I...

    How to go about cleaning heads on car?

    I just bought an 86 Turbo T Type that had been sitting around for a while and from what I can tell never really taken care of. This car was totally bone stock all around. 123k miles. So I went ahead Sunday morning and pulled it all apart to have the intake and all cleaned up because of all the...

    I saved a T Type! And not just a normal one......

    http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/629834/6 For the full details and pics! Gotta love the WH1. It's a 1986 too. But I couldn't stand to see it sitting around just rotting away in a lot. It got the crap beat out of it by a tipped over fence and the barb wire that was sitting on top of it...

    Lost the keys

    Oh man is this embarassing. I know I should have gotten spares made before this happened but time passed and I never got the chance to get them. I was wondering if anyone else got caught in this situation and how they resolved it. I called up my local GM dealer but was told they only hold the...

    Oil Pressure Rises, then drops, then rises?

    Well the topic is basically to the point. I start the car up and the oil pressure rises to around 30 psi. Then it drops down to 0 real quick, I hear a tapping noise, and then the pressure rises way up to nearly 80 and I don't have a problem with oil pressure at all after that. Tapping noise also...

    Pics of PT-61 against Stocker.

    Just came in today! Damn this thing is good lookin. Much larger than stock. I only ordered it since the last guy ran the balls out of the stocker, the shaft wobbles quite a bit and spews more oil than I find acceptable. Can't wait for my new oil lines to get here so I can get it back together...

    Anyone running PT61 w/o Converter?

    Since I had to take out my gas tank on my 89 TTA (somebody used rubber silicon to seal the filler neck to the tank) I figured I might as well do some other things to it while it was out of commission. I pulled the turbo out already and figured i'd do an upgrade. I wanted to get the PT 61...

    What fuel pump will take me into the 9.90 range?

    Eventually i'm looking to get down into the high 9 - low 10 second range with my TTA but for now will probably be looking for mid - high 10's. I really like the Racetronix TTA kit and was wondering how far I could take this pump? Also would it be possible to run the Racetronix inside the tank...

    Strange rattling/tapping noise on startup?

    I don't know if I should be alarmed or not but this is what happens. When the car is cold and I fire it up, on the initial start where the rpms come up its normal, then comes this odd rattling/tapping sound for maybe a second then it goes away and never happens again during the rest of the...

    Good Shop In NJ?

    Looking for a decent shop in NJ to do work on my TTA. It needs a gas tank and i'm putting in a pump while i'm at it. I'm looking for someone who isn't going to beat up my ride. If it comes to it i'll just try and do it myself but would rather have someone else do it since i'm strapped for...
