is that even out yet? if so im past the scanning point, no offense to anyone who wants a scanned copy, rock on with the scanning, i will go out and pay for it. that would make great car show material. i have a small collection of vintage xr4ti ads, like 4 the collection grows every time i get on eba...

so i'm thinking a group buy and all of us share custody in the car. i get it every other weekend.

i am still working on my car and i have most of the coolant leaks fixed and the external waste gate bolted on. but noe my car will not rev past 1500 rpm. it reved fine last week when i set the timming, and now it will not rev past 1500. i think the TPS is ok because its revving a little but i do not...

i was thinking glass packs, save some room under there. i think they would sound decent.

i have a very freshly rebuilt engine, probley less than a mile of driving on it, and when ever it is running there is quite a bit of white smoke comming from the down pipe. i have no exhaust on it besides the downpipe and i know it is normal for a new engine to smoke a littel. i do not think that it...

hey i was looking to get a three gauge cluster for the xr and i was wondering what you guys have went with and where you put them. if you have any suggestions let me know and also i am looking for a decent boost gauge and i really don't know where i should mount that. thanks. any pics would be aweso...

i swapped the fuses and still no fuel pump. so i guess the fuse is fine. so what is next in the trouble shooting for the fuel system. I'm going to go look in my shop manual.

so i just got back from college and i went out to try to start tunning my xr and it would not start. when ever i turn the key on i do no hear the fuel pump coming on. and i check the shreadder valve and it inly dribbled out. when ever i crank it for while it will shoot out a little but not for long....

i am going to school at the University of Central Missouri. they are one of the 13 schools in the country that offer a 4 year auto business program. and as for the help offer i will take you up on that. i do not really know a lot about suspensions. i think i am going with a nice mc2 package because ...

The difference in handling will depend on what you started with. If you have a 150,000-mile XR with stock everything, you won't even recognize your car anymore. Putting nice springs and bushings on the car helped me out quite a bit. My 175hp RWD XR with the mc²racing suspension (obviously) has b...

so i went on mc2 racings website and i ran my bill up to about 1000. so what i was wondering if the whole suspension package was worth the money. here is what i have so far new front and rear struts- koni adjustable new stiffer springs- front and rear new nylon front bushings nylon steering rack bus...

thanks. my car is at home, and i am still at college so i have all of these things i need to do to my car, and i can't wait to do everything that you all have suggested.

i have a set of 215 45 17s i tink that is what they are. and i need to drive out my old wheel studs and i already ordered the longer ones from mc2 racing. those guys are great. so if i were you i would throw some longer wheel studs and spacers on there. it should fix any clearance problems with the ...

check the o ring that goes between the oiler cooler and the oil filter adapter. as soon as i read your post my mind went straight to that whole assembly. happy hunting.

you know sometimes its scary what all you guys know. i kinda feel like a retard compared to all of you. o well ive owned the car for like 8 months so i guess i have a lot to learn, thanks again for all of the help. i will get some better pics of the engine once i get home and can back the car out in...
