congratulations dude

looks super clean! cant believe 16k mile cars still exist!

The last sentence is relatable

Think very long and hard about whether you want to awd swap. In the age of plentiful imports it no longer makes much sense. Only do it if you have a love for custom fabrication and a hatred for money...

also,

sell me one of your e154fs

oh no

that was such a clean car too

I'm sorry this happened

I'm fine with the 13th

I'm good with either

wow,

you did a really nice job. I like the quality of the execution, it all looks well thought out

guys,

forget all this fuel filter, o2 sensor talk. The car is clearly rejecting the 5S


The only solution is to swap a 3S in there

I'll bring, water, cans of pop, condiments, and burger patties

yea really,

fingers crossed it warms up and gets green by then

Jake and Sam are in and may be bringing one of their secret fancy new cars

I believe Louis and his wife are in too

Should be a decent group

awesome,

spread the word indeed bros

I heard about the dragon meet. I might join in.

It would still be nice to have a local meet for those that don't want to drive out all the way to the smokey mountains. What do you guys think? still in for the 14th at starved?

awesome

lets keep that as a prelim date

you guys interested in a Sat May 14th meet at starved rock?

Did you check your flywheel step height before send out the transmission for a rebuild? Should have a .020 step on it

an improperly machined flywheel wont let the clutch disengage and thus, wont go into gear. This is a trap I've seen at least 10 ppl on here fall into

learned all this from very painful experience...

Glad this place is back

I need to finish this build thread before 6g disappears for good

Much progress has occurred since the last update

This sounds identical to what I was dealing with for a long ass time.

Try bypassing the stock fuel pump resistor by the battery. Mine was causing sputtering and heasitation issues when coming onto boost. Bypassed it at the connector and problems solved. Like you, it was an issue that seemed related to heat. Turns out the older these resisters get, they more they drift their resistance values with temperature, something I verified with a heatgun and multimeter.

doesn't really matter if the fuel pump runs at full 12V all the time. Your FPR will ensure your injectors get the correct fuel pressure regardless



Edit: for context, the fuel pump resistor is solely intended to allow the ECU to switch the fuel pump from 9v operation off-boost, to 12v operation on boost (I'm guessing toyota did this to keep the pump quiet when just cruising). Its completely unnecessary, and will momentarily kill fuel pressure when switching voltages if the resistor is old and drifts its resistance value.

Some clean racing lines there 👌

Dude you are an inspiration

This whole project is amazing

anybody have one?

Jordan I'd be down for a meet at a new spot. I suspect we can easily do it w/o risk of getting anyone sick, especially since it would be outdoors

Here's the PSA thread I made years ago explaining what happens if your flywheel has the wrong step height

Machining specs matter ppl. These are carefully engineered mechanical systems and everything has to be spaced appropriately to work

yea cancelling is for the best
