Yea I have to get use to it. But since all this snow came roads suck with all these pot holes from the snow plows.

The roads here in San Antonio suck especially since it's mostly small hills. They're is not anywhere I go to where the ride over there is flat, and there are a lot of pot holes but they're slowly starting to fix them.
Yea I can imagine. Roads here are so so. In some of the richer surrounding towns they have very since roads to drive on that I enjoyed before the car was lowered. I can't wait to take some Sunday drives around the state when all this snow & ice melts.
This idle problem sucks. When the cel gets tripped if I'm at a stop and in neutral the idle is high. If I give it a little gas it revs to 2k and pulses(kinda like a 2step)until I push to give it more gas. I can't get it to say steady at 2k. Could my throttle position sensor be bad? It resets itself and everything is fine if I turn the car off then back on. But it just start doing it all over again.
unplug it and see if theres a difference ........if it reacts the same then you know its that......atleast thats what i do i go and start unpluging sensors while the cars running to see if the reaction changes
Thanks a lot man I'll give it a try

Ill look into something but I know a common case with the IAC is bouncing rpms at idle. Easy fix for that but like igotboost said try taking the vacum line to the IAC valve off and check for change in symptoms. You can close off the vaccum by putting your hand on the hose and taking it back off, also you can try cleaning the IAC for just recreational testing with carb cleaner however take as a note I believe it CAN hurt the valve if over done. I'll try to help you do some more research so just keep working at it and you'll find a solution.
Thanks man. I tried unplugging the IACV and it seem to have a change in engine speed so I think it's good. I also unplugged my TPS sensor and got a cel immediately so that seems to be working. I think I have a vacuum leak some where in the system. My idle is around 1500 and when the cel gets tripped it goes up to 1800 then the pulse starts under light throttles(sounds like 2step). Wish I could just fix this issue.
Are those CPFs?
Another wheel I'm considering. Only concern is having a white wheel which I hear is a pain to keep clean.
Yes the ones on the car are Cpf. But the wheel is spun SPK-G wheels. They are Cpf-g replicas
Yea starting it is good. I just want mines to run right lol. But one step at a time. I might get a new TB with the map and tps on it and see if it fixes it. If not then I gotta go searching for a vacuum leak.
Same here. But I do want a new motor. Mines is starting to burn more and more oil. But I have money saved away for that. And I'm tryna sell some stuff I have laying around to have extra cash just incase this motor takes a dump out of the blue one day.
But on another note I am ready to buy a set of wheels. I decided I'm not gonna get stance mindset right now. Their just to much work to get them to fit how I want and this is my DD. Mindsets aren't really daily drivable with a 3" lip. So I'm thinking of just getting some 16" Rota Track R wheels wrapped in some 205/40-16 tires. And I can always sell them for my asking price in my town being that they are so popular up here if I get tired of them. I do plan to get another set of wheels some time this summer once the car gets repainted. Those will be a much better set of wheels. Maybe even a real wheel.
As for the K series motor it's on hold. Really tryna think if I want to put it in this car. I kinda do but then I feel I would be better off with it in another shell. That way I can set it up more for the track and really have fun with the motor. It's really hard to have a show car and track car in one.
