i need to get my hands on a core so im not down for 5-10 days...as long as my car would run im ok....ive check with a local salvage yard and no luck...but what about a '98 + AV6? would that work? just to put on my car while mine is out getting P&P from king...BTW my good friends girl friends dad scheew owns a big salave yard so...im sure they would "LOAN" me this TB

us 1st gens can swap out to a 2nd gen, so I would assume you could swap out to a 1st gen.

maybe your idle would be a little rough?

typeR

ill check it out

Tunaboy

From what I hear AV6 TB's are 54mm and a CL/TL is 48 and it is a direct plug and play fit. No modifications to your resonator/CAI. I don't know if that answers your question because it isn't very clear.

typeR

i need a TB the type S is 64 but not that that matters

scalbert

Sorry Steve, still no unit available.

The core would be hard to come by and you would need to stick with the J32A2 unit and then have it machined.

scalbert

You could buy a new one, have it machined, swap out the units, have the other machined and then sell it alone. I think the stock ones are about $350 so you would want to slipt the difference of charge someone else more.

typeR

hum...ok welll...maybe ill have to be down for the 5-7 days...any idea of when you might get yours back?

scalbert

No idea when or even if.

typeR

what i meant steve is i know the owner of a salvage yard could i use an accord or other j series tb just while mine is out being done...just so i ciould use my car?

scalbert

I see...

Hrmm, I don't see why it wouldn't work.

typeR

hey while were at it....ive taking the disconnected VSA out of the car...and as i thought i got both VSA lights lit...i tried jumping the wire with red and black the other connector has 3 wires not sure what to do seems like the 2 wire harness is the power supply and the three wire is the trigger.any ideas?

scalbert

After looking at the Helms manual it looks like you would need to apply 4.5 VDC to the center pin on the three pin connector. You could create a voltage divider using the other pin pins levels for the source.

The only question is if the ECU sense an open on the motor circuit. It so a resistance measurement would need to be taken on the motor and a proper resistor applied.

typeR

damn so doesnt sound easy,not to me anyway ?

scalbert

Actually it is easy. Just a $1.00 worht of resistors and some electrical tape should be all that is needed. I would start with a 1k Ohm and 9k Ohm (or multiple to sum these) and create the divider.

Try these links to see how it is done:

R1 = 1k Ohm
R2 = 9k Ohm
Vin = 5.0 VDC

typeR

ok...im going to radio shack tomorrow but i still dont get it

typeR

ok went to radio shack i got 1k ohm resistor but...its 1 watt no mention of what watt to get an 2 others addding upto 8.9K 1/2 watt did i get the right stuff?

scalbert

The wattage won't really make a difference.

You just need 9k ohms and 1k ohms and that should be it.

typeR

is the 8.9 close enough?

scalbert

Yes, that would be fine.

typeR

so no what just put one on one wire and one on the other?

scalbert

typeR

see thaT smiley face on the end ...that means i still dont get it

typeR

ok steve you back?

scalbert

Yep, and those resistors slipped my mind. Drop me a note on Monday to remind me.

typeR

will do
