hey jack how much are those lowering spring and shocks

i got them for a great deal actually. i got the rears from a member here and got the fronts from ebay and the GC's as well.

[CB7=91]

Do you know how much they are worth new

[ikayto]

new gc = $320-330
new agx = $320?

I'd sell you my shocks for uber cheap if one didn blow out. I think tony dwnhill is selling some shocks?

Power steering fluid is fine, and yeah it's a whinning sound "EEEEKKKK" it's fucking annoying. anyways the steering feels a litle stiff sometimes after i start up the car and make turns .

[ikayto]

sounds like your power steering is on its way out.

[dannyd]

That could be 1 problem... Any more sugestions???????????????

[dwnhillCB791]

Bro I have the same problem, fill your power steering fluid as it's probably low, but most likely your rack and pinion has a leak and is fuct. So your probably gonna have to replace it.

[dannyd]

I was afraid to hear that!!!!! . Anyway did you ever fix yours?

[CB7=91]

well you could just take your power steering belt off thats what i did cause my power steering pump was leaking

hey gary how do i check for continuity between my deck and speakers.

for some odd ball reason my speakers arnt getting the signal here and there. but when i hit a bump or a pot hole it goes back on. is there faulty or loose wiring somewhere? is it best just to run a direct line from the headunit to the speakers?

i ruled out that it wasnt the deck because i tested it on my stock deck, and the speakers arnt getting signal from that either.

[UrDoneSRH]

ghost, its possibly a blown speaker or a wire at the speaker is grounding out. dont waste your time running a new speaker wire. its highly unlikely that it is damaged between your deck and speakers. usually the simplest solution is the right one. id start with speakers.



my turn now. so im still batteling the CEL. still pulling the IAT code. ive replaced the sensor. ive disconnected everything ive added (electrical) when swapping the intake manifold.

still have the CEL, i checked the voltage on my lunch break at work today. it was reading around 1.6-1.8v A/C at idle. when i revved it up the voltage went up with the rpms. so i know that it is getting the reading from the sensor and it has power. my next guess is could it be a bad ecu?

i was going to take my car into a shop yesterday but after going around town for a few hours asking questions at different shops. ive deducted that the people i talked to knew less than i did. plus they want to charge 80 bucks and hour to look at it. fuck that.

any ideas? imreally stuck and i need to pass smog. im about to just pay a buddy to pass me, but i would like to get this CEL cleared if i can.

please help!
