i guess yours are just messed up because mine never does that....
Fixed.
It only does it when I time it right; also I think there is a manual adjustment knob on top of the motors; I adjusted just one side so there is a very slight delay which eventually makes them go out of sync like that. That might be part of it but I may be way off; I did that when I first got the car and didn't know what I was doing.

These will hopefully be shipped by the end of this week, and once I get them I'll try to get them to fit. Not sure if they will at my current height.
Also starting to plan out what I want to do with the car for next spring. It's either boost the current 1.6, rebuild the 1.8 in my NB and swap that in, or buy another 1.8 and build that. The thought of 13b crossed my mind but that seems like a lot of work lol. Or buy a '91 MR2 turbo and leave the NA slow for another year. If I build the 1.8 and swap it in I would have to wait another year for boost, or I could just have boost a lot quicker by turbo'ing the 1.6 for next spring, but then that'll be more work later if I still end up swapping in a 1.8, will also be more money spent, although I could recoup some of the money from selling all the 1.6 turbo stuff later.

Very excite! Insurance coverage starts at midnight tonight. Driving it tonight to drop it off for the emissions test first thing in the morning and getting the car registered tomorrow afternoon. Will be driving it until the end of the month or until it snows.
Raised it up just a touch in the front to stop rubbing the wheel wells. Drove it a bit, doesn't rub with these wheels and I don't scrape too much; other than my exhaust.
Also finished the license plate mount, might need some adjustments but it'll do for now.

soo i have 3 of this in the garage ones apart
1 complete twin turbo
Failed emissions... high HC and CO at idle. Still trying to figure out what it could be so we can make it pass.. Not sure why it is running so rich at idle..
Going to try getting it really hot before running it again, and maybe playing with the timing a little since those are free fixes. Then might get plugs and wires as a start.

Just spent the past few hours driving around aimlessly enjoying the car after over a year of storage. It passed emissions! All we did was retard the timing..... A lot! And many back to back passes down the road to get the car really hot. But hey, I'll take it... Timing set back to normal afterwards, got the cars registered properly and enjoyed driving around.
The one on the right is the first try, the one on the left is after making adjustments, huge difference in readings lol

Glad to see you started modding this one too! That reverse rake in the last pic bugs me though

The height still needs to be adjusted a bit, but it will be fine tuned when the new wheels go on. They arrive tomorrow, and hopefully will be on by the weekend. I love the overall height it is at now, still easy to drive around town, scraping here and there but not too bad. But I don't think the new wheels will fit at the current height so things will need to be changed.

Yeah it looks pretty good at that height. I'm curious to see those wheels mounted... should be a nice contrast to the smurf blue.
