i managed to rebuild my entire motor MHG ARP headstuds and all gaskets for less than 300.00 the only thing i didnt replaced was the piston rings and bearings everything else was DONE!!!!
^^^Damn thats bad...... Acetmi i got the car like that actually they look like walmart fog lights the previouse owner cut and placed them in . ill post pics tonight
Nice color you got pimpinNJ253 mine is the same color but mine is an 89. what mods did you have in yours when you got it?. actually im the second owner i could have probably talked him down to 450-400....lol he is an old man and wanted to get rid of it... right place at the right time.....lol...
thank you i did disconnected the switch and the car NEVER acted stupid again.....lol and i believe is a good idea to bypass the switch in a way it minimizes the stress on the main bearings specially no oil in them when starting. IMO
i know i might be wrong but this happend to me in another car come to find out it was the safety clutch started switch... again i might be wrong but is worth a shot......
i want to lower it and get me some nice 18" wheels for it atleast with a 3" lip deep dish for the back wrapped with some 265/40/18" and 235/40/18"s in the front, also she is getting a nice fresh paint job, soon soon......lol
Thank you guys nothing was wrong with it but i did replaced the Hg with an HKS 1.2mm MHG, and ARP studs. new waterpump and complete gaskets i did my OWN ceramic coating and powder coating. i was thinking about going with some gold or bronce color wheels. my next mods will consist of RC 550cc...
for all who doubt me about the PVC pipeing here is a 7MGTE running 443HP and 11 sec on the 1/4 mile using Lowes PVC pipeing......lol

I heard there was a guy that put out 435HP at the wheels with an upgraded CT-26 60-1 Turbo, stock 450cc injectors, Lexus AFM, 255 fuel pump, IC pipes, MHG, ARP head studs and thats IT!!!!!!! so it can be done with minimal modz........:evil2:
I wanted to go but it was either not go and finish the MK3 or not finish it and go . i did manage to get her done thanks to "CJ" phone tech.....lol anyway i will defenatly be there for the next one so when is it?????? i hope soon!
