My airbag light is still flashing how do you reset it?

Swapped the winter wheels on. Damn stock silver wheels are gross.

BettyZ · 11-08-2020, 04:33 PM

Loaded the stock map to see if that clears my emissions issues and OMG. The Z is a whole different creature. That's been lamed. Weak acceleration in anything but WOT. Much quieter. And it heats up like a mofo, even with a 34 row oil cooler and the Seibon hood.

Seb's tune was worth every penny. Now to clear emissions so I can reload it. Only things still showing "not completed" are evap and fuel system.

I'm not sure about your state but even in commiefornia they won't fail you for "not complete" evap system

I'm surprised they failed you on that. I have no idea what fuel system incomplete means either. It's not like you haven't driven the enough for them to reset. I don't know if this will help

Thanks brolo. I've driven this skank over 4k miles since all this started. Failed 2 tests. After you fail the third you have to make an appt. And I can't re-register the Z until I pass.

So I'm going back in for a 3rd try and this time I'm going to have a nice, calm, chakra-aligning conversation with the 'inspector' - Chicago-style.

Little maintenance done today, swapped out the spark plugs with almost 105,000 miles on them with some brand new oem denso, also discovered that both valve cover gaskets around the spark plug holes are leaking so i guess time to swap those out.... also i don't think i mentioned it but i had a poly transmission mount installed a couple weeks back.... what a difference in driving feel!

POS threw some code so I threw it into the garage for winter and will look at it next year.

JARblue · 11-09-2020, 09:16 AM

I drove it to work

Hope it doesn't rain because it doesn't have any windshield wipers installed right now

Also spent some time the past few days trying to figure out a noise. Fairly certain it is the exhaust making the noise. Hope to data log a little bit this week to send to Seb for a retune

Does the noise sound like.. exhaust?

Nope. It almost sounds like the damn throwout bearing (which is brand new)

It happens around 2.5K RPMs. Can be engine braking in gear. Can be stopped in neutral and give it the right amount of throttle to make the noise. It happens briefly during gear shifts, too. Would be annoying except for racecar! Plus during the gear shifts it kinda sounds like a blowoff valve for my poser turbo

That sounds like good old test pipe hiss lol
