So I fired my car up for the first time since fall last year. Sounded a bit rough at first but as soon as oil pressure came up it sounded ok. Sounded really good actually. Played with some settings like TPS and IAC and adjusted fuel pressure. Only change I made to it since last year was...

I just rebuilt my 3.8 in 87 GN. Got things back together and fired it up. Things are looking really good. Even scanmaster numbers are looking good after some driving and testing and adjustments. I did notice that it was burning an incredible amount of fuel even though scanmaster numbers...

I recently rebuilt the engine in my 87 GN. I have already fired it up and done the initial 20 minute break in procedure. Everything seems to work perfect.....no problems in terms of running nicely. But I want some advice on how to adjust and set the timing if I want to after I am able to get...

I want to order the tin man cold air intake system for my 87 GN. I'm thinking of ordering it from Kirban but I'm wondering if it comes with the aluminum mass air flow pipe as well. (The pipe that runs from the turbo to the MAF.) Or do I have to order them seperatly. The web site is a bit...

So I did the conversion from the power master to vacuum brakes. Everything went well and I'm confident that I've got everything bled out. By confident i mean i went around the whole car probably four times to make sure there is no more air left in the system. I also replaced the rear...

I picked up some new front shock absorbers for my 87 GN because i noticed one was leaking so i figured i'd change them both. The front end felt kind of bouncy so i thought it was time for some new ones anyways. The first thing I tried to do was take the top mount nut off the shock...

Just wondering what the best way is to go about doing this conversion. Where do I find the parts? Is the booster and master cylinder the same as a regular regal? Can I just buy a rebuilt unit for a regular regal and it will work. (I know the brake pedal is slightly different, the hole...

So I've finally got my car sorted out and its running great. I am happy. It all started with rough idle and high block lean numbers. It turns out that the main problem was the wrong injectors installed by the previous owner. The injectors that were in it were to small, 20 lb...

So, while I'm waiting for my new fuel pump from racetronix, I have the sending unit sitting out on the bench wired up and ready to go for the new pump. I was checking the hoses to make sure they are all good and I noticed that the return line where the hose plugs onto it is necked down quite a...

So during my fuel pump issues and waiting for a new fuel pump and whatnot I decided to do some testing. I've come across something I'm curious about. Does anyone know if the violet wire on the in tank sending unit that goes to the fuel gauge sender goes to ground. Because it does on...

I discovered that the new fuel pump I purchased from racetronix is not working at all, beyond a shadow of a doubt. It worked for about 20 minutes and then it died. I posted on their customer service/product support forum about what happened, but I haven't heard anything back from them, and...

I recently installed the racetronix fuel pump and hot wire kit. Started the car for the first time after installation and it worked perfectly. It sounded great, nothing seemed wrong. I just finished adjusting my new accufab fuel pressure regulater, also purchased from racetronix. The...
