    FYI, you can get your alignment close to stock by loosening all four subframe bolts... and moving the subframe around and putting it back where it once was. The subframe should have some markings from the bolts and you can tell where it once was. Marking the subframe before disassembly would have made it a piece of cake to get it REALLY close to prior setting. (ill have to show ya mine and how its marked so i can drop it and put it back in the same place each time) Basically, if you are pulling right, the subframe needs to be moved to the right, and vice versa.

    Well my steering wheel is a little off line aswell. I got a 3 year unlimited alignment thing so I'll just get tred quarters to hook me up. Itll be done first thing in the morning.

    The swap looks real good! Did you get it diagnosed? Was the ELD your problem? L8

    Actually, is was caused by that o2 grounding, and it blew fuse #4 (Alternator Fuse) under the dash, I replaced the fused and fixed the wires on the o2 and now all is good, thank god it wasnt the sensors. BTW the sensors are the 2 on the top right side of the motor near the air/fuel lines. REAL easy to replace, and a good thing is the guy that I gave the motor too stil had some, thats if I needed them. But thanks again man for checking it out for me, now I just gotta fix the o2 cel (Running lean still) and fix the exhaust again. Wont stop banging on the bottom of the car now.

    Sweet. Fuses are easy fixes. I have some wire loom left over if ya wanna put it over your O2 wires. Im surprised youre runnin lean. Didnt Davis say it was good to go with the 310's?

    :noidea:

    Get her cleaned up man so we can do some pix!!

    :thumb:


    EDIT: AH. It wasnt a crank sensor cel it was the cam position sensors! Makes sense now.

    yeah, 310cc goes w/ the k24s... i think he said you'll need about 10-15% more fuel when swapping the k24

    Sounds good man. Tomorrow Ima go see what I can do about the exhaust, its starting to hit the bottom of the car badly now, I may get the header pipes extended about an inch, Ima see what can be done so I can maybe throw the sway bar back on aswell. As for the o2, maybe I modded the Defouler wrong or something? Ill see about that too.

    Well, you can run 270's with KPro. I have now for almost a year. The TS is using the OEM ECU for now... and 310's are supposed to give him enough fuel to run. Im just surprised hes running a little lean is all...

    Well now that you have all the electrical issues fixed, i can put my KPro back in your car... load an a3 basemap to match your ECU, and change the injectors to 310 and we sould be able to get a datalog of how your k24 is running now. It wont be exact, but it will give you a safe ballpark idea at least... Do you have access to a torch? You could heat the bends on the header (NOT the welds) as its coming off the head and pull down on it to possibly give you some more clearance. Same thing where it bends to come up to the 02 sensors... it just wont look as purty when your done.

    I need to take ya for a ride... youll want your front swaybar afterwards...

    Well I got the header adjusted today, and thank god, now I need to work on the CEL.

    Ya I CAN feel the difference in not having the sway bar, but it isnt to much of a big deal for me right now, some time in the future I do plan on getting the one I have modified to fit, Hit up an iron shop and see what they can do about it. But ya man, the Kpro thing sounds good. Lemme know when is good for you and ill come through, im off this sunday BTW.
