I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

having some problems...

Post by hondalowlow » July 30, 2005

i changed my head today " i took off the z6 head and replaced it with the built stage 2 y8 head " and it runs awsome but after 3 test drives i was running it hard then it fell on its face. i was like WTF then it only revves out to 4 grand then its like a rev limiter. i disconnected the batt. and even pulled the ecu and its still doing it.

im gonna pull the ecu reses fuse overnight and pull the battery. and see what happens.

man is my ek pretty quick now. the y8 head is a stage 2 build with a huge cam in it. its either a crower or ZEX im not shure but its revvs so fast and has tons of power.

please help me out guys on whats going on here ok thanks.

Sounds like it's in safe mode. Why don't you get a jumper harness and run an obd1 ecu?
