Do you hear any low whining noise when turning? Check your fluid and/or change it too that could be the issue

I guess that all depends on your exhaust setup, do you have straight pipe off your stock downpipe? If so all you have to do is get any aftermarket or stock evo DP and then get a 12" section welded in. If you are not using your stock dp then you might have to have a custom dp made

 

nope no noise just hard to turn. i will look at it in the morning.

Hmm wierd.... Usually you will hear noise before you ever feel it in the steering wheel.

 

i think it might just be winter in wisconsin. but like i said my car does have 140k on it now so it wouldnt surprise me. ill check it in the morning.

 

it could also be the belt , tighten the tensioner if that doesn't help try swapping the belt...

 

found that it was the belt. the tensioner had backed itself all the way out, stupid thing! guess i got to keep checking it more from now on

so i bought an evo fpr and rail today for 50 bux shipped. gonna see how well that works


josh

 

I want to know how the fuel rail works out.

 

thats why i got it, and if it dont work then i can sell them again. i got both for $50 bux shipped, so its not like id be out that much anyway. and i know i can get the fittings from places like AMS to make a fuel hose, since i work at an auto parts store.

ok well JRR.. i got an AEM fuel rail for an evo also the aem fpr that matches up with it.. the ports for the injectors are off by about a centermeter on the 1st and 4th runner, the 2nd and 3rd runner are close enough to work. i went with the evo fuel rail because were building a intake manifold to match it so i can run all my new fuel components.

a civic fuel rail is the closest match i have found.. a b18c1 aem fuel rail was only off by millimeters(i dont have a Dseries rail to check it with, i think that one would be almost dead on, or about the same), but it has the wrong hookups, so u would have to change something on the fuel line to adapt to fit it.

evo one will possibly work, but leaks would more then likely occur i think, i think its just to far off on the 1st and 4th injectors. but like i said, i went with the evo rail, and were making it work, i figured i didnt want to mess with trying to adapt the fuel rail to the fuel lines.. something about 1000cc injectors leaking just doesnt sound safe to me.. lol

 

so i have been a ghost even on my own thread for some time and even here on the forums.

update-
been very busy (explains the ghost part). still working on my turbo mani from chele adding my external wastegate in solidworks before i weld stuff together, but im closer now. ordered all my gaskest and small crap that i need to gotot the evo 8 turbo from my dsm 16g, and that should be here in the next week or so. joined a few new more local forums. bought a dewalt 18v cordless impact wrench and some ATD metric impact sockets from work for christmas to my self. not much else done round here.
