What did you do today to your 3/S?

[Jimvr4]

is it only for the ECS? Does the ABS/SRS system use it also? I'll need to look over the wiring again as I can't remember off the top of my head if any other system use it.

The ABS G-sensor is located under the ashtray near the shifter

<~~ Wonders why ABS needs a G sensor...

So the system can decide to work in the worst possible moment....

Glad to see the slipping was not 3SX cam gears

I believe it disables on hills greater than 15 degree slope

Did you degree the engine, then remove the cam gears to drill for locks?

Stock engine, stock camshafts, what's there to degree... Heads have never been decked and I confirmed the timing marks on the adjustables to the stock cams. I'm not building a power monster so Im not that finicky about pulling every last bit of power/torque from the motor. I got these for an absolute steal so I'm just going to set and forget. Same concept of buying Jackhammers gears that were the stock ones just drilled out to the settings.

Is there seriously no way to make them not slip? Lock or star washer? Kinda useless then. BCs for the win I guess.

I'm not 100% sure if these Fidanza's will slip or not, they are the newer style that clear the timing belt covers. I just know people have complained about adjustable ones slipping in the past regardless of brand. Rather safe than sorry. Seeing as I run a solid tensioner and Kevlar belt I don't have that slack that the hydraulic tensioner gives which may cause a slipping issue to be more common.

LOL! Well said

Gotcha. Carry on

I bought a used CF sunroof cover. The underside was all messed up for some reason like it had been hit with brake cleaner. I repainted the underside, buffed the top, put on new hardware and a new seal. The seal was the biggest pain. I tried a few different things and ended up going with 3m Weatherstrip Adhesive. I also had to sand the front edge down as it stuck out farther than the glass did. I've heard that piece can go flying off all on it's own, so I didn't want the sunroof putting upwards pressure on it when it opened/closed. Now I'm just waiting on my hood and cf vinyl roll for the wing.

Started tearing down the engine in order to replace timing belt, waterpump and everything else that goes along with it.
