Yeah, I am a little toe in right now. That changed some also when I replaced all the heims. Pretty sure I was toe in before. I definitely don't want to give up any high speed stability, but I should play around with it next trip between rides to see if I find a position I like better. Sounds...

This sounds great! Can you point to where I can get that type of switch? On mine.. I currently have the fans on a manual switch because I like to have more control of when they come on. I have a Honda V6 and as mentioned, the ECU triggers the fans to come on at 205 degrees. That's a bit late...

What does everyone like to run for their front end camber? I just replaced all the heim rod ends on my a-arms, so my camber is off from what it was prior to replacement. Right now it has about 2 degrees negative (top of tire is inwards). Not for any particular reason other than I didn't keep...

Our Sunday morning ride hit a snag. My buddy lost the clutch on his 450. Tried a couple of things, but ended up strapping his bike on top of my buggy. Git-r-done.

Currently at Glamis. Trying to get the group back out for another ride. A few break downs in the group, but my buggy is doing well so far.

My wife & I used to camp just like this at Glamis. We would pull up on our own rise near the canal. My fat-tired Chevy Blazer could pull our t-trailered buggy into some pretty soft areas. I was always paranoid about a drunk running over our tent in the middle of the night, so we we set it up...

Being a Honda newbie, I don't know for sure. I think they are different size throttle bodies, but the mounting bolt pattern is the same. I'm pretty sure you can take your current throttle body in with you to match it up, just make sure to show it to them on entry and they will mark it somehow as...

Resale Red.

Yeah, that's why I ordered the new IAC online, the local parts store prices were ridiculous. But now I don't even know if the new parts I'm getting are working or not. Seems like not.

It was $59 including tax and $5 core charge at LKQ in Oceanside. Considering that the new IAC valve was $63, I thought it was worth it. I guess they could have dinged me for each attached sensor, but they didn't. I have another complete spare junkyard throttle body with the 3 stock sensors. I...

Finally some good news for my Honda idle issues! I have been through the wringer on this but it's idling good and running good now. I had a successful shake down run at Ocotillo Wells over New Years. It runs like a champ and I'm very pleased with the power as an upgrade from the 2.2 Ecotec I...

Oh I didn't realize that. I also looked for an engine decoder with no luck. I was trying to find out exactly what vehicle mine came from. I guess it doesn't really matter as long as the parts are the same for all J35A4 engines.

Me too. Haha

I have a J35A4 and it has the rectangle on the top of the intake like your first picture. It also has a J35A4 stamp on the front passenger side of the engine (as it sits in the buggy). I may be going to the junkyard today to pull a part I need off a Pilot or Odyssey. I'll see if I notice any...

So I've been tinkering with making my own sled as a diversion from my buggy frustrations. This is 1/4" aluminum. Multiple holes allow for positioning the tie down brackets as needed to fit the situation. It comes in at about 9 lbs. I sized it to fit in my buggy, but I'll likely just leave it...
