I said no to the K&n purchase, but didnt want to pay an arm and a leg for the SRT so I found the Weapon R secret.

Here it is, I am so happy and you can deff tell the pwr gains

Not with my lex but with my Mercedes. You might want to check your cabin filter. It is located inside your glove box. Pull that back panel off and remove unwanted shizil. My car had old leaves and the began to get caught in the fan for the air. Once you have the filter out I would stick a vacume hose in there and see if you can score on some extras.

Good luck

Damb there is always someone that will dis racing or someome posting an enjoyable run in there car. This is a car fourm so please dont act like you havent gone 100+ in your whip. Its cars and yes you can go that fast and still have it in cruz cont. so whats that mean???????????

two words, torque converter

Agree.

Try this out.

Re-set the ECU(pull the battery cable for a few minutes or pull the ECU fuse) The Brain will re-learn your driving habits. As other have said turn off traction controll and put on the PWR setting. My car feels more torqey and brakes lose.

You should notice a diffreance in how the car responds.

One down fall all your presets will need to be updated(radio, seats, ect.)

Or upgrade to a V8 j/k LOL

Have fun

Nice, right hand drive.

Keep the JDM licence plates

Is it kind of like a clicking sounds or a screehing sound?

Hello, Iwant to get the magnaflow mufflers but I dont know which to buy for my 98 GS400. I know a few people here have these on so if you can shed any light I would greatly appreciate. PArt number would be awesome. THanks!

Magnaflow part number 14829=nice thats what i have

Did you run new piping(catback) or new resonators?

Any performance gains?

Mass Air Flow Sensor????????

Now that I read all of the problems again this sounds like all of the symptoms.

It does happen once the car is warm and it almost feels like a trans slip. Idle is fine most of the time, harder acceleration like in 2,3,4th gears is when it happens.

The sensor tricks the brain and it thinks its getting to much air to fuel ratio so it cuts the air and it feels like the car wants to die.

You can try to clean it, or test the wires, but I think its best to replace it.

It is the compnent right next to the air filter, very easy to replace and just takes a few minutes. Un-do the two screws and disconnect the wire harness. (ps. might want to disconnect the battery) and Cost $85 and usually a core exchange of $50

Hope this helps. GOOD LUCK

I took it out a blew it out. Should I try to clean it with a liquid? If cleaning does not work, I'll replace it. Thanks for your help.

I have heard you can dip it in rubbing alcohal then let it dry. But to be honest its a pretty cheap part so its probably worth it to just get a new one. Might help with MPG as well as performance. I think they sell refurbish ones, if you buy a refurb just make sure it comes with a warranty.

Does the car have a bad idel as well or just accelration?

I would say fuel, and a filter is ment to stop dirt so its bound to get to the point of being so dirty it needs to be changed. I have not heard of a lifetime filter.

This may help for other members with the same problem. I did not buy my actuator from them but I have bought parts from these guys at below most.....

Part number 5.

Hope this helps...

Check out this guy as well. I have heard nothing but good things about the fit and durability. And color matched http://stores.ebay.com/DELSA-MOTORSPORTS-INTERNATIONAL

Wow, thats one of the best features of this car when it came out. One of the first.

Bump because i am having the same problem with my driver door locks

Its your door lock acutator. Its a common problem. The price ranges from $200-250. I found one on ebay new for 40 shipped but I got lucky. You have to take the door panel off. Dont forget theres a screw behind the door open lever. Disconnect electircs I think there were 2, one for the door light and one for the window/door lock. It takes about an 1hr. Tools? I think it was just falt n philps screw drivers and a socket wrench. You do have to by a new tool its a * almost like an allen but its a star. I picked it up at autozone for a couple of bucks( just get the full set cant remember the size, sorry)

Good luck
