I am looking for a 87si if someone is parting with theirs. I am also considering a 87 injected convertable or a 89 spyder. I rather the the 87 models instead....
Hey everyone, I haven't driven any other biturbos other than mine so I have no reference point here. But I'm wondering, is the clutch pedal as hard to push...
here is a recap of my clutch problem: 1. wednesday night i backed out of my parking spot with no problem, but when i tried to take off in 1st gear she...
Hi, I have an '89 Spyder and the clutch pedal is considerably harder than my wife's 2001 Mitsubishi Spyder. My '89's clutch is considerably stiffer than my...
Did you bleed all of your calipers? Bleed the caliper the furthest away first, move to the next. The closest caliper last. Have friend listen to your master...
do you think bleeding the brakes is necessary if i did not lose any fluid from the reservior during the clutch master/slave replacement? there were no leaks,...
First, thank you all for the replies - been busy lately so I havent had time to investigate everything but your posts were very informative and I'm sure...
When you are working with brake stuff it's advisable to ALWAYS check for air. When you pump the clutch, have a friend listen to your filling hole. Any plopping...
No bushing = Crazy steering!!!!! Without that bushing the steering is close to unusable... Later! Cheers, Jarle ... means ... Also ... Looks ... the ... one ...
Maybe I was mistaken about which bushing is infamous - I'm talking about the one that keeps the steering column in place in its support right above the pedals...
Well, with the steering colomn moving about, the steering is crappy! I have first hand experience on this ;) On both the changing of the bushing and the...
Hey Jarle, Where exactly is this bushing? The reason that I'm asking, is that several months ago I was soliciting info from the group on my '89 Spyder. It...
Now that I have spent some time on the freeway with the spyder, I think I can live with the auto (for now...). I do want to shorten that shift lever though....
Hello! This bushing is a plastic one in a bracket just above the pedals. It's holding the steering colomn where it leaves the cabin. If this is gone or weared...
As I said, Maserati did changes to the front suspension because of it's inherent design "problems". The turns are great, but a bit unfocused on the straights,...
i have noticed that my new(er) 85 E suffers from this effect sometimes referred to as "tramlining" where it follows ruts in the road. my new car has 15" rims...
Hi Jarle, Did you manage to do a GTech run with these new goodies? Do you have a history of modifications and GTech times? What do the dumpvalves sound like?...
Hello! * Did you manage to do a GTech run with these new goodies? Not properly. Been to busy at work. Plan is to be able to do it on sunday. Hopefully no rain...

I'm very sceptical on 30% performance gain just by doing the heads and turbos and leaving boost pressure the same. It is more likely that your heads/turbos...
Hey! * I'm very sceptical on 30% performance gain just by doing the heads and turbos and leaving boost pressure the same. Well, you shouldn't be. The ports on...
Yes those turbos sound nice but I'm still skeptical...hopefully you can put it all in ahead of schedule while the weather is nice and post some numbers! I had...
Hi, I've searched the archives, but still don't have a clear understanding of whether aftermarket ignition systems like the MSD or CraneCams units can be used...
I looked into it, your effectively running off the coils only, the Ignition computer sends a signal direct to the coil to fire. You could add in a with one...

* Yes those turbos sound nice but I'm still skeptical... Hmm... No reason to. Modena Performance in Germany does the exact same mod's I'm going to. Porting of...
