if it's the thrust it will stop when you put your foot on the clutch, Once again i told you to change it when it was out. lol had to

yeh its when clutch is in and out.. but only when moving..

hard to describe.. its almost like the sound when you used to ride your bike and the wheel was buckled and the brake used to rub...

any ideas?

I dont have time or I would computer design your subby box and build it, ask Jack 88 on here, see if he's busy or not?

the hard wired converter is easy, take the cig plug apart, look at the power wire going to the center pin, it is the positive wire, the other is ground.

one side of the wire case will normally have ribs on it or white stripe. make note of the one that has the positive wire.

cut off the cig plug leaving a little bit of wire on the end so you can rebuild it if you desire later on.

buy a blade fuse holder of the same value used in the cig lighter plug. from autoshop. if it takes more then 10amps I would run a 10ga wire to the battery and fuse it within close proximity of battery to protect the car not the item. ground it within a few centmeters of the conveter to a bare metal ground with a large tex screw(watch out for fuel lines or other items under it) or a existing bolt, seat bolt works good just scrape off the paint first under it. solder all conections to prevent failures. make sure the power converter has fresh air to keep cool and mount secure, tidy up the wires, done!!!

depending on the convertor location you might need a on off switch too and relay

what kind of sub box do you have in mind? for what brand and type of subs. what music type? goal, sound off compete or just nice looking? make's a big diff in cost

how much power will you run to them? you might be better off buying a used box on commy club site, plenty around. thats where i sold my last two VT boxes? unless you want custom /cool boxes?

if you get stuck i can pro desgn it, but dont have time to build now, sorry

nothing like a "your brother was in a car accident" to wake you up after only being asleep for 3hrs.

but thankfully he's ok, car is a write off but ohwel.

It beats getting the phone call that they're dead. Sorry to be so morbid, but I've had some of those. :huh:

Glad to hear he's okay.

    • Bummer...yeah i "need" something to "ease" up the work and for my driving it would be enough.    Iam counting the tune "without" turbo. I do not mean "cheap" like something from Temu around 200 USD, "Cheap" is something around 1000 USD? 
    • Starter motors used to use the weight of metal (magnets) to provide torque. Now they use (more) current instead. This. It's completely normal.
    • So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!
    • OK, few more things sorted and it is ready for a shakedown on 10-Oct, with one weird thing. Changed the run in oil and filter for the good stuff. 8l came out, about 8.5 went in with filter so that looks all good. Changed the starter (again), this time for a brand new one, works good. Interesting that the Taaaarks one is shorter than factory but spins harder, I guess electronics have moved on a little in the last 30 years. Will be nice to have a bit of extra space under there. Put the timing cover back on, and noted where the cam gears were set as a record.  Will need to double check the timing but it is pretty close. Also put the coil pack cover and intake snorkel back on. Exhaust Inlet Changed the water out for coolant, bled up nicely. Removed the rear brake pads (well worn factory sumitomo ones!), gave the hardware a good clean and reassembled. I've put bendix XP on the back again because the price is excellent at $150 a set and they worked well on the V37. Front pads have plenty so no issue there
