DISLEXICDIME Posted July 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2012 I don't even want to see what my tires look like now Quote Link to comment
DISLEXICDIME Posted July 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2012 So i have had a intermittent issue where my car woul just randomly loose power. well 2 days a go i said to my car i wish what ever is wrong with you would just brake so i can fix it. Well be careful what you wish for because you just might get it. i went to go to work and my daily had a flat so i drove the dime. well as i was heading to my mom's for a visit i got on it and grabbed 2nd the car launched1 ( i WAS LIKE FUCC YAH !) then all the sudden i was like what the hell the hell . i lost all power then smoke and burning! i look over ( I had my glove box out so i could see my harness and get to my ecu ) and i see my sr harness is on fire and smoking so i cut left coast down the street and turn my car off. cut open my harness check every thing from the ecu to the fuel tank. head back to work grab a trailer and truck tow it home and inspect a little more. It looks like my fuel pump froze and caught my relay harness on fire and melted the connections at the top of the 300sx pump stand. I am lucky i did not explode. :w00t: So me and phill went and got 3 new relays and a fuse block and all the crap to fix my harness . yay! So i think i am going to run a aeromotive 340 instead of a walbro has any one used a aeromotive 340 in there swap? is it as loud as a walbro? Quote Link to comment
DISLEXICDIME Posted July 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2012 BIG THANKS TO PHIL ! for rebuilding my relay harness. and thanks to nismopu for hooking me up with my aeromotive 340 and his custom mount and another z31 stand check it out no more walbro's for me ! Quote Link to comment
Laecaon Posted July 28, 2012 Report Share Posted July 28, 2012 Now to find out if that is quieter than a Walbro. I have never heard a good thing about walbros regarding their sound. Quote Link to comment
DISLEXICDIME Posted July 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 well after screwing with this pump for a couple hours trying to get the dang thing positioned right and low enough so the pump wont starve I realize i need 2 hose clamp's that i don't have . if some o e read's this post and decides to run this pump make sure to get the pump that has the intake in the center.

dennis Posted July 29, 2012 Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 I know I am a little late but the Deatschwerks pumps are supposed to be great, plus they are drop in. Keep us informed how you like the Aeromotive, I am almost in this stage and if you really like this pump I might be interested. Plus if it is quite that is a bonus, damn Walbro's are loud as hell. I know the Deatschwerks pumps use the same type of turbine pump as the Aeromotive pumps. Quote Link to comment
DISLEXICDIME Posted July 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 well it survived the first trip around the block with no fires . And the pump makes about 50% less noise then the wallbro. I am driving with my back seat out and i took my sound deadener behind my seat out. With both those out the pump is still quieter then my walbro . Quote Link to comment
jesusno2 Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 Walboro pumps drive me up the wall. The inline ones are bad. I love the TRE inline pumps super quiet too! They make in tank versions too. Quote Link to comment
DISLEXICDIME Posted August 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 Ah what interesting chain of event's i have had to day. So ever since i got t boned in my 4 door a couple years ago. Every once and a while my left hand just kind of looses it's grip almost like it just short's out for a second. Well on my way to work today I pulled in to burger king to get a egg biscuit sandwich thing. As I was pulling in to the parking lot I reached over with my right hand to turn down the stereo as I rolled over the parking lot drain holding the steering wheel with my left hand. well guess what! The drain is sunk in to the ground a bit so as i drove over it it ripped the wheel out of my left hand and as a grabbed the wheel with both hands and tried to correct what had just happened bam! I pegged a curb bent my wheel bent my Tye rod. hopped out of the car thinking great i just taco my rocker on the island I just hit. The rocker was fine but my tire was going flat so I hopped in the car drove a mile to my work on a flat . Got to work beet the wheel back in to shape so it can hold air. Called baxters ordered a new tye rod sleeve because mine had a 30 degree bend in it. Then tried to remove the tye rod sleeve ( thinking I could still use the tye rod end's but I was wrong the sleeve bent right in front of both tye rod ends)!. I called baxters back sat on hold for 15 minutes asked them to order me two tye rod ends. The baxter employee tells me sorry man if you would have called 10 minutes sooner we could have thrown them on the last truck. :w00t: So I grab piece of fence post cramm it between the tye rod and frame bend the sleeve as close to straight as i can get. Then since they have i5 south detoured I took surface streets home. well my car did not like that on this hot ass day. the dang thing started running hot died out at a light and didn't want to start. At lower speeds under part throttle it is heating up but if i get up to a descent speed it will run ok . I beleave it because at low speed the air is going around the radiator and ic . so now I have to buy inner and outer tye rod ends buy tires for my other xxr's get an alignment and make radiator ducting/ seal up the area between the ic and the radiator and the area around the 2 so it forces the air through the ic and rad Quote Link to comment

DISLEXICDIME Posted September 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2012 hahahahahaha ahhahaaaa yes! So i said i was going to park this car till next spring but since it has a full tank of gas i figured i would try to trouble shoot the problems it is having. well today i swapped out the maf hopped in it to take of and it just died. So i hooked up the laptop to it thinking YES maybe it will finally give me a code and i can figure out what is wrong. nope! So i fired up and noticed if i wiggled the maf wire just right the idol got funky . aha! I peeled back the harness protector looked in the maf plug and the wires where loos inside. I tightened every thing up turned the key on and looked on the lab top while i wiggled the maf sensor wires . It changed .001 of a volt. good enough for me . fired it up let it idol. Wiggled the wire and it started idling weird again wiggle wiggle no change . at this point i am thinking great i busted a wire then it happened! I brushed the cas plug with my hand and it cleared up. So i grabbed the plug push up and the car almost dies. Push down idol speeds up . My cas plug is cracked and broken . So I popped it back on wrapped it in gorilla tape and took it on a test run. so much better but not perfect! Now i need a cas plug any one know where i can get one . part of the orange insert is missing. with out that piece the cas plug is free to move around the outer shell is also cracked Quote Link to comment
