    I might have some lying around in one of my e30 parts/junk piles. I'll take a look when I get home.

            Figured I would post this and see if y'all have any clue.

            I just finished up installing a new head unit, amp, and sub as per Luke's instructions. However, I have run into some problems.

            1) The car still runs, however, it runs very poorly. When I press the throttle and then release, the engine slows back down as per usual but, it continues to slow down past 600 rpms. When it does so, it starts to shake and nearly dies. It doesn't thought, it returns to normal idle speed pretty quickly. I am thinking this is due to a bare wire touching somewhere. Thoughts?

            2) I now have no blinkers or hazards. The PO did some rewiring of sorts and I now have a few random wires not connected. The first of which I traced back to the blinker wiring. Does anyone know the location of the other plug? The plug on this wire almost looks aftermarket to me...


            Under the driver side speaker I have these wires that are unconnected, I have the green/grey line.


            I also have this:


            The wires in this plug are the color of the two I mentioned that are not connected. Were they at one point connected here?

            Any help would be greatly appreciated.

              Time for a multimeter, a wiring diagram, and a lot of swearing.

                  Hey guys just wondering if anyone here has done a stroker build? im looking for a good machine shop in the denver area to get some boring done for a 3.0 build. Also looking for m52 crank and rods. Anyone know of a local junkyard i may be able to pull those from? i found em on ebay but the rods were quite expensive.

                  Not doing this immediately just laying the ground work by stocking up the parts! Just very excited to even begin the process ha
