Thanks guys, I pulled the head off the car only to find my cams, distributor and everything was in perfect time...
cams in perfect time
nothing wrong with the pistons
Valves seat fine
I guess my maf just died on me... I don't know. I found a new maf plug cuz mine was hagard and rewired that in and I have access to another maf if mine doesn't work. I am going to change the valve stem seals while the head is off and I am going to get another gasket set and a new ignition coil, cap, rotor, plugs and o2 sensor just to be on the safe side... Other than that I can figure out what would make it kick, sputter, run like a diesel and shoot flames from my open header out past my bumper...
Recap, I had good compression across all four, proper timing as far as cams go, proper spark timing cuz we hit it with a timing light and it checked out, and it's not a fuel issue because I was running rich... so to me it seems like a sensor issue that is reading wrong and it is dumping fuel...-bump steer makes driving more exciting- (>_<) ヨシ ドリ

Haha I'm sure it's not this bad if you daily drive it with an auto-x here and there but this is about 5 years worth of pictures and incidents. It's a blast to drive and it feels amazing on a track. It feels very capable and the only thing holding it back is the fact it's still na ka. Which may change soon... But yeah four or five years of drift events takes it tole I guess... It is a love ****, that is for sure... The love out weighs the **** so that's why I keep trying haha.-bump steer makes driving more exciting- (>_<) ヨシ ドリ

Yeah the enkeis are 15x7+0
@00BMW323 I completely forgot about those! I need to get some cash together... need to wait a while I am currently working very little because of school so cash is sparse
@raffi91 thanks man, I'm hopping to be able to get another one of those exhausts, it bit the dust when I hit the wall. I have a huge gt single cannon to replace it for now...
I just need a new header and some hangers and I can put my new exhaust on. December 12th is the next event and I can't wait!-bump steer makes driving more exciting- (>_<) ヨシ ドリ

Well the whole having no income deal and being in school is starting to suck really bad... luckily my friends are awesome and hooked me up with a free header so I can put my ISIS GT Single exhaust on I bought forever ago... once I get hangers that is. I had a little run in with the wall as most of you know... I am having to replace/fix just about everything on the suspension... Waiting on one of my applications for a job to come through... So much to do...
Until then
That is all...-bump steer makes driving more exciting- (>_<) ヨシ ドリ
