  1. I know I responded in PM - but thought I would post into the thread as wellv- one of my projects over the holidays is to reset my toe, camber and re-scale my car....

    I was walking down this path.. http://www.susprog.c.../tutorial04.htm

    I just completed reading

    - Chassis Engineering: Chassis Design, Building & Tuning for High Performance Handling

    and

    - Vehicle Dynamics: Theory and Application (tough read)

    I installed adjustable coilover a few months ago, and adjustable toplinks.

  2. looks like I'm the newest member of the 'smelly club'.

    when you replaced the crossover/balancing pipe - was it only the rubber hoses connecting the tank-to-pipe (#49) or does the actual metal pipe (#50) go bad as well?

    If you replaced the pipe - what did you use? (is there anything special about the metal tube - coatings, ..etc)

    thanx

  3. Ok, here's the deal on your cdl according to the Service Notes. You have actuators in both doors but only the passenger one is motorized. It also says the wiring harness is setup to accomodate motorized actuators in both doors so you may be able to fit a second passenger door actuator on the driver's side. Then it would just be a matter of tapping into the correct wire with your remote opener system.

    This is what I did. the driver's side actuator is nothing but a switch, so I added a second motorized actuator alongside. the alarm I installed had a door unlock/lock wire - so all I had to do was power the new driver-side motorized actuator and the rest work like usual.

  4. my 89 SE did have central locking - so as you manually unlocked or lock the driver's door it activated the plunger on the passenger door.

    what I did was add a plunger to the driver's door - operated by the alarm (i installed) and it triggers the driver's side door plunger, which then uses the central locking to unlock the passenger door.

    The alarm has a million feature - of which I only use two - door unlock/lock and vibration sensor.

  5. don't have to - you can actually slide the transmission back enough without removing it or undoing the shafts. I recently did a clutch swap, new throw bearing and plot bearing as well. Pull the boot floor, and the little extra panel at the rear of the floor as well.
