Okay rant time. WHAT THE FUCK IS WITH MANCHESTER ROADS?! Holy shit on a shingle man! I daily drive a HYUNDAI ELANTRA, it feels like im driving a fucking marshmallow. You'd think a soft suspension could absorb the endless onslaught the manchester roads throw at me, but it feels like my car is going to fall apart on some of the shitty parts of the roads, and when i mean shitty parts i mean HOLES, not manhole covers, HOLES IN THE FUCKING ROAD! I could stand in these holes and lose a good 5 inches off of my height, it's ridiculous! It's pathetic, i live in east bumfuck Candia, for most people it is east bumfuck, and you'd think the cows and horses and whatever 4 legged creature would fuck the roads up, or the amish people riding around, who knows, but the roads feel like they laid out the red carpet just for me, compared to Manchester! Manchester, you get a :score: for being a douchebag, i hate you.

2004 was the year of the dragon for Korea! Dont mess with the 2004 elantra :rlaugh:
|
Out near Keene the frost heaves are so big you have to down shift to drive up over them and use the brakes going down the other side.
|
Wat is a frost heave? I've seen the signs every single year, but they just don't seem to have anything in common except for the fact that they are in some random spot. :Wconfused :Wconfused
|
haha, yeah, the roads down around the mass/nh border are terriiiibllle right now, i'm just south of keene.
|
haha finally offloaded my motor lol BTW anyone interested in a aftermarket TMIC?
|
What are the dimensions? I plan on keeping my stock turbo for a while.

it is for a FC and is MUCH larger over stock TMIC
|
ya I know how bad they are getting, there are roads in the state that I don't think a car could get down being how it tosses around my mom's jeep which I have borrowed for a bit. I'm ready for spring.
|
ok I got another one for everyone. I have been thinking and thinking on this latly and kinda want to do a rebuild and port on my engine before I drop it in. is there anyone around that could help me out with this at all I was leaning towards doing a full bridgeport and yes I know not very reliable but I won't be driving it ALL the time and a bridge would be fun.
|
Max, TEZTnTUNE can do porting. I think he's still in business, does great work. Message me tomorrow on AIM if you want his number.

i would do a search in the second gen parts section Tim, i saw a couple threads recently for brand new half bridge irons for like 300 shipped.

do the porting your self! i did the irons that dom_c ran,
im going to do my cosmo irons once the weather stops hating me and i can pull my engine along with some other stuff :D |
did you get your new turbo yet?
|
Not yet, it will ship this weekend (cars at home, guys at school etc) i paid in full though
i started to price clamps, flanges etc, piece of 304ss to make the flanges is gona cost me 83 alone :( atleast mc master carr's ss sched 40 bends are wayy cheaper than expected, like less than 20 each |
oh wow, link them please. have you checked ATPturbo.com? that is where i'm going to get flanges for my new exhaust.
|
I would do them myself but for one I don't have the template and don't trust myself enough to just go and do it I would like to see how it is done and then can learn
|
Im telling you man go see Max, i'll call him for you if you want. He does everything rotary related, 50$ an hour to, cheap. He'll hook you up with a sweet port! :icon_tup:
