    How to tell what year ECM/engine I have, HELP

    Looking through a manual now. Thought I'd make mention of a couple things I've discovered so far. 1) The fuel system is an 02+ (fuel tank, pump etc) 2) Found out the turn signal housing is from an 02+ (when replacing with chrome) So with those 2 discoveries, I can only assume the ecm is not...

    Got the bad news, my 99 engine has a tiny crack on the bottomside REBUILER ???

    Well I found a guy in Tampa Fl that asked me to send him pics, said he may be able to save the area (rewelding). Who knows, I guess people do it all the time, maybe the person did a crummy weld job. I found someone willing to trade a 4k motor for (mine + $1600) sounds like a good deal to me. I...

    Gen 1 Trim Panels around speedo/column area "paint ?"

    I see alot of people having a nicer look to their panels, rather than leaving stock black color. My 99 is the passion orange color (newer model color). Is it as easy as taking these 4 pieces to paint shop and having them sanded down and painted or is there someone out there who paints them and...

    Front Blinker - Running light Mod

    ok thankyou Yoda! I will use that wire. Having dual HIDs, I wanted to be on safe side with current draw. Appreciate it, I can't wait to see the results of the whole assembly.

    Front Blinker - Running light Mod

    Ok, I bought bulbs, made the wire harnesses, only question is which wire to tap into for the running lights portion :) I'm assuming an IGN source, but do you have a color wire or location of one off hand in that location which won't drain too much load from headlights. I'm installing both HIDs...
