Yep- I've checked all the grounds I can find... I just saw a standard P5 here in the FS section. I'll try to pick that up and test. I don't think that any sensors should be able to cause a high current load on the ECU- they should all be isolated. So if the ECU is blowing amps, it must be bad...

This is for a P5, 5-speed, correct? Just clarifying. If so- I'll take it.

About a month and a half ago, I'm driving down the road and the car just dies. Literally just shuts off. I didn't even realize it shut off until I pressed the gas to accelerate up a hill and nothing happened. Tracked it down to a blown ECU fuse (the fuse marked "Engine" in the cabin fuse block...

I don't know about that. I just made my own out of 3/8" x 24 threaded rod and this ball joint from McMaster-Carr: Item 4483T24. Just do your own measurements so the bar is flat while the car is neutral. For what it's worth, I had an AWR endlink set on the front and they literally pulled apart...

Wow- very cool! Glad someone else had the guts (and tools) to give it a shot. Looks good! And yes- looks like your endlinks are way too short.

Amazingly, I actually still have this template laying around. The height of the piece is 5 1/8"

The only precaution I can think of is to let you know that the tranny is going to leak fluid when removing the half shafts (unless you drained it). I didn't realize this but was luckily able to grab a container pretty quickly. Other than that- I will say that I have always found it difficult...

Nice video link, Clifton. I always thought you had to have a special high-load meter to test the battery like that. I understand how a meter works with a large shunt resistor- but if the battery cable is bad enough to have MORE resistance than the meter- all that current is going to flow through...

Are you positive on that? I also have side air bags, and they have a dedicated light in the dash. When you unplug either side connector under the seats, the air bag light comes on- not the ABS light.

I had an idea a LONG time ago to bring the sub further forward. I got a Kicker 8" solobaric (the square sub). I removed the center console and started hacking away. I did this well before I started taking pictures of every step (which I generally do now with all my projects). Here's the best...

Yes. I've driven more than a few miles without it plugged in. Though I wouldn't be connecting/disconnecting it with the ignition on.

Here's where I did mine. Edit- Opps, didn't see JCell's post in time.

Yeah, I have a manual and didn't see any white plug. If you open the hood, stand at your driver's side front wheel, and look directly behind the strut mount, there is a rubber plug right there. I ran my gauge wires through there by puncturing the rubber with a flat blade screw driver. I...

It's probably the auto levels. That is a nice camera though! </threadjack>

off topic, but what camera do you have? The saturation in your pictures is crazy... Are you enhancing them in photoshop at all?

Didn't you answer your own question? Keep them as close as they were, then get an alignment.

Well that's the first set of FD wheels I've ever liked... Looks good.
