Found this guy selling a used NW102 on fb and I will be meeting him up to check it out. Any way to test it if I don’t have my z with me? Maybe with a battery?

Here's the video he sent of what's sketching me out, anyone ever seen huge lettering on the blade?

Always a crap shoot on used parts. If its a long standing forum member there's a lot less chance of them hustling you. New member you roll the dice. Same on ebay. Craigslist

No one sells a used NW for that price unless it trashed. There is a mfg. that makes one that looks like a NW. Be careful.

Z0HM6

do you happen to know how i would be able to tell the differences between the two? Does the nw have some kind of engraving on it?

Texasthunder

I have a brand new one at home still in the box. I will look at it tonight and see if it is marked in any way. Look on ebay and you will see the china made cheap ones.

That is way too low for a good NW102.

Z0HM6

if you could do that and maybe even upload good clear pictures that would be great obviously the only reason i'm interested is because the price is great but i'm being cautious

Z0HM6

the guy who's selling it told me excessive racing in pearland tx got all the parts in since they did their build. I called them up and gave them the seller's name and they confirmed the seller getting the tb from them, said the tb is legit. idk who to believe

You can buy 102mm chinese TB's on ebay all day long for not a lot of money and I suspect that is what you are looking at. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Throttle-Bo...ss!28075!US!-1

Yeah i looked them up on ebay and fake ones are 200 new. He doesn't have any pictures on his posts and when I asked for pics he sends a video..

If it sounds too good to be true....









I'm sure u know the rest.

Texasthunder

Sorry , I forgot about looking at the NW 102. Do you still need pics.?

quickone87

dont know about anyone else, but I'd love to see some pictures. I'm in the market for a used 102 and have also wondered about the Ebay specials. I've even seen some sites selling NW 102 with the exact same photo as the $200 ebay specials! Somebody's lying here lol

Texasthunder

After looking all over my NW 102 I don't see any markings on it. As a matter of fact the only thing that says NW is the UPS label. Here are some pics. of it.

Hey Guys I have question i have 102mm Throttle body from my Friend i Think is a Chinese edition if i Take this on MY Car with Ignition On and without Starting the Engine and If i give Full Throttle i become a Failure P1516 engine Check.

The Car has no Tune for this Throttle body its that normal because i don't have a tune or is the Throttle e body faulty

Thanks Guys

If you're not tuned for it, yes you will need get a code but only when the engine is on and you go to WOT.

That code with the engine off is from the TAC module and is caused by a bad TPS (at least mine was). Can also be a bad MAP sensor or loose wire in the connector or bad grounds. It's usually a TPS though.

Clear the code then turn the key off, next turn the key back to run but do not start the car. Press the accelerator pedal slowly and see what happens, once you get to WOT, it should throw code again, if so, TPS

Also the thorttelbody is not tuned for this car I drive stock one I delete this failure and if I turn the ignition without starting the engine I can see thorttel body position also 25~-82 percent but if I put the thorttel full the failure comes again always

That's what mine was doing when the TPS went bad. The crappy thing is that you cannot replace the throttle position sensor on that TB.

There's no tuning to the TB, the pcm has to be tuned for the increased airflow and that's a different error, unexpected airflow code.
Your error comes at WOT which is the TPS misreading throttle position, it's got a bad tps.
