  1. Finally been catching up on years overdue maintenance. Got the drilled and slotted rotors on a few weeks ago, today did upper and lower ball joints on the driver side and repacked the bearings, next the passenger side, followed by the tension rods.

  2. If anyone ever finds themselves looking for these connectors because they also want to reuse the factory harness.

    Use part number: 12015792 Delphi Weather Pack

    Someone on the facebook group managed to reverse image search for them online.

    I'll just order new connectors

    Do you have a picture of them? Might be able to get it from one of those large electrical suppliers like digi-key. They are probably a somewhat common weatherpak connector.

     

    Just doing some checking, you can probably match it up at the parts store if no one has any laying around:

    I appreciate the suggestion, I have one set already I used to wire some lights to the stock fog light harness. I checked online and some places through my work, but the connector is pretty darn uncommon from what little I've seen. Autozone "makes
    it, but one is 34$. I broke the original fog lights years ago and saved the wiring knowing I would do something with it eventually, Im hoping maybe someone will have done something similar. I'm not in a big hurry, but I do wanna continue to use to stock wiring. It's already there.

  4. Wanted: Fog light connectors for the WD21.
    Anyone have the male end (attached to the fog light) in good shape off the factory Bosch foglights for the WD21 they'd let go? New ones are like 20-30$ a connector. I'd like to wire some non factory lights into the factory harness and if anyone has some in good shape I'd be interested in purchasing them.


    I only need the connector that comes off the factory foglight, I don't need the factory foglights themselves, or the harness that goes in the car.
  5. I don't know if you guys have these in the states, but the good old Club Lock usually is a good visual deterrent. It's a lock that goes on the steering wheel, preventing a thief to turn the steering wheel. I know thieves can overcome Club Locks but it's gonna at least slow them down a good amount of time. If a thief sees a Club Lock they would probably just move onto an easier target.

     

    Yup, we have those here.

     

    Not a bad visual deterrent.

  6. Now see, that's what I'm looking for... What kind of price range is something like that?

    I will be building/buying something to put in my 91 this coming spring, whether it's building my vg30e or buying a vg33e and modding it. Either way, I'm going to pump up the volume on my pathy.

     

     

    Not a clue.

    Got lucky and bought it done.

     

    I think a couple members have done it themselves though. Try searching or starting a thread on it.

  7. MULLET!!! :ar15:

     

    Ehem. Nice truck!

     

     

    So, if you want to upgrade and you are pulling/working on the motor, I highly recommend that you ditch the VG30 (actually, just sell it as a running motor) and install a VG33.

    VG30E produced 153 hp (114 kW) and 182 lb·ft (247 N·m).

    VG33E, with 168 hp (125 kW) and 196 lb·ft (266 N·m) torque.

     

    Add VG30e cams (stock, euro or stage 1 performance), intake/headers and full exhaust (with all the other factory VG30 stuff on it) and it you will have a bullet proof runner producing 180-190hp/200+ lb-ft that passes smog. Bolts up the same, minor bracket work for accessories, no hurting the motor, no detonation, no ecu/injector change. It is running everything at the limits, but within spec...

    All documented here Bud, so time to look around a bit. ;)

    I agree. Very happy with what I have, though its a little more built than that.

  8. I've seen several guys talk about the Doug thorley with 2.5" all the way back. I'm wanting to do that as well. I'm also planning on the electric radiator fan swap (with higher output alternator).

     

    Quick question on the cams... Can you still pass emissions with them in a vg30? I'm coming up on a timing belt water pump job and wondering if it would be worth it now, or will I have to wait till this old girl hits exemption status...

     

    I'm passing smog in California with cams, Doug Thorley headers. pistons, bored block. new ecu, etc.

     

    It can be done.

  9. For the record, I got ahold of theexbrit. He said the bumper has held up well.

     

    A couple braces were added between body and bumper to stop lateral movement, but it works great and the approach angle is much nicer with this bumper.

     

    Thats what I got for ya.
