That's what I thought, but how much ressistance do they usually have? Sorry to bother you so much my friend, it's just good to know people with the same interests!!

your not bothering me at all. i figure if i help people, hopefully in the long run thats good karma for me. i dont have the best of luck as you can see. lol.

- i cant remember the ohm reading off the top of my head and im at skool right now. ill check that for you later on tonight. is there something wrong with your lude?

Well the one I traded for the 300zx had a lot of electrical problems, but it's gone thank god, I don't know if I ever told you but I got my engine steamed cleaned before I put that prelude for sale and the stupid guys from there just threw the wire you use to hold your hood on top of everything, the wire touched the battery and, well guess what, I ended up with a burnt ECU, I got another one at H-T but the sunroof, reverse lights, wipers, horn, and door locks stopped working. My guess was that it might have something burnt by the ignition switch cuz I replaced the fuse box by the engine bay. I also checked all fuses but I didn't know how to test the relays, so that's why I was curious to know.

shorting the ecu might have shorted the motors for all of those electrical parts. thats what happened to my window lift motors when i grounded out my battery.



***UPDATE****
- sooooo the fucken p72 i got was threw a knock sensor code, an abs code, and an ignition code. i couldnt get rid of any of them. i was pissed for a good few hours cuz thats total bullshit. no words could describe my anger. lol.
--luckily, one of my mechanics friends had a p28 spoon chipped ecu with a rev limiter set to 9000 already!! yup. sold for 224. thank god. we installed it and it started up and idled nearly perfect. way better than before. it sounds like i have a high profile cam.(wich i dont mind cuz i actually do lol.) the idle is sitting somewhere around 1k. great.
---now the bad news; ive accumilated nearly 3140 dollars worth of a bill. thats about nearly 2 years worth of guys ive got to help me, nearly permanent bay time (since its at my mechanics garage and ive used up and etire spot for about 2 years), parts through my mechanic even with his honda discount, and allllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll the efin parts. gawddamnit. its so depressing. gotta do it.

Hope to hear how you're car runs soon. I'm in the middle of everything, I think the hardest thing will be finding a shop that hones FRM cilynder walls.

good luck with that. i lucked out and found a reputable shop last minute. i was about to send it out. that right there, is one of those detrimental things if not done correctly. especially considering how finicky the frm walls are.

my friend does it with sand paper, I think that's not a proper way to do it, lol

holy shit. no. lol. thats definetly not the way to do it. theres only 1 type of grinding stone you can use to rehone rmf sleaves. and even then, its a finicky business. alls i gotta say is, make sure the guy doing yours knows his shit.

Where were you gonna send your block to get the honeing done? How much was it gonna cost?

i was gonna send it to one of my buddies shops up in VA. i would have just drove it up there since its not the far, but shipping usually costs a coupld hundred dollars to there shop. a pattern rehone is about 250ish.

Man! tell me something so I won't quit, it's getting in my head, specially the honing the damn block and the P72 thing, I"m about to buy one and they keep telling me shit about it, I'm not rich or anything and time goes by that I lose hope on that car. Will have a lot of parts for sale in case I don't finish it.

dont be discouraged. trust me, i know allll about that. my builds almost 2 years in the making. ive spent the amount of money on repairs + rebuild that equals more than i paid for the car. plus i had to wait. without another mode of transport. (although it wasnt so bad as i take the metro to school) its a learning process. and you gotta stay persistent.
1.) just research the machine shop your takin your block to. first question you should ask is if they rehone FRM specific walls. if they dont; then the shops a no-go.

2.) do NOT get a p72 unless your absolutely sure its virgin. theres other(better) ecu options. ask around. read up a bit. if in doubt, just ask me. lol

3.) if you do sell your shit, garuntee i might buy sumthin from ya. lol

Lol, thanks buddy, I'm having hard days at work, in my case I have another car while I get the prelude finished, thank God for that. I found some guy that'll do the job on the P72, I'm much happier now. Money is becoming an issue now. lol. I'm not selling my shit just yet, lol.

wich p72 do you have? iono if i directed this link, but you might wanna read this.

Wow that's some good info, I'm calling this guy to see if the ECU is OBD I, damn I almost wasted 100 bucks. lol

ya. def be sure youve got a compatible one. i now know why the p72 is not the ecu of choice.
