kicked it...... again and again
|
Fixed minor coolant leaks, replaced both rad caps, protected Boost control solenoid box from heat, taped up IC to keep air going through. Got pulled over on 185th (was dumb of me for speeding on that road), no ticket though. He brought up a bunch of questions (not stock muffler, WA ID, WA Reg., Expired Ins Card).

why aftermarket DP's are cheap. I can even afford to have one. I think the best way to hollow it would be a hammer and 1 inch dowell, or bar. I think mine was already hollow when I pulled it, but thats how I fixed my main cat. anyway corksport DP is only like 160 or somthing.

1st. The new recently done painted hood.
2nd. Add'ed on some aftermarket fog lights. ( By the way, dose anyone know the laws in Washington for adding on after market fog lights, can you run with them on all the time?? ) |
i will be replacing the PD today, if it arrives. Tracked down my idle problem to a nice fuel leak at the PD. I will do the fuel filter at the same time.....

|
Bought an Apexi N1 exhaust this weekend and installed it today, and sold my old exhaust. I took my car over to Marc at FD3S Engineering in Beaverton(in the same building as Apex Restoration) to look at my car and I found out I have bad compression:( He said the engine will only last till the end of the summer:(
|
Put the replacement front bumper on. Mostly done, just needed some screws.

home depot brake ducting!
dunno if it'll stay attached at 150mph, but at least it clears the tires. http://i131.photobucket.com/albums/p...h18_2k/1-2.jpg http://i131.photobucket.com/albums/p297/josh18_2k/3.jpg http://i131.photobucket.com/albums/p...h18_2k/2-2.jpg |
Got highcentered, lifted up back and pushed forward and it launched, dove into the drivers seat and cranked ebrake up halfway only to have it go faster cuz there was another hill. Was dragged about 50ft. Roadrash and glass cuts for days
|
finish painting, CAI installed, and some cruisin with the drop top
|
still workin on my pulsation damper change out. cant get the dam VDI off.
|
Finally got my corksport FMIC kit installed. But it's made for S4. I don't care what the website says. So I had to order 2 more clamps + a 90* reducer. It runs, but leaks like a mofo.

I had a simular experiance after replacing the starter of my old chevy luv. when I put the ground back on the battery, fucker started up and started driving down the block. I got it stoped before it ran into some mail boxes and into a yard. but I chased it a good 75 feet. I washed mine..... sort of I ran out of quarters. |
Finally pulled the engine out and now i need to clean the engine bay out and replace my power steering rack with the new manual rack. Almost done with my turbo swap ^_^!
|
I FINALLY got my Title and registration today. Even got plates too. As some of you know I have been going through it to try and get this done. A little hisory, the car was towed and stored for 5 years with no plates, tags, and an unknown owner, but after some doing all is said and done. I just need to swap out the rear end, install some new half shafts and bearings, and let the breakin process begin.. :D

finally drove my repu 300ft been 3 years
|
Got the racing beat header installed last week so now I have a full header-back exhaust system. Right after I had the header installed I took it for a drive and everything was fine, I drive it the next day and every time I get to 4k there is hesitation, but now it only does this occasionally. There is also some vibration near the center console around 1-3k. Ugh every time I do something to this car something breaks :wallbash:
|
I bought Tein Type HR Coilovers for my FC and some replacement interior parts.
