Well after all the bitching I did to get people to come to the dyno day, here I am crapping out. Work always seems to get in the way, so of course something comes up 11th hour that I have to be here for... you guys have fun over there... dammit
Just checked forcast for houston this weekend...... looks like some rain is the order of the day, which sucks some serious asshole, as I refuse to take my car out in the rain.
Add to that the BBQ is outside, the show and shine obviously is outside, and who wants to do a cruise route in the...
Hey everyone, wanted to share some photos of the Dragon... the results of some serious time and effort on my part over the last few weeks. I put in my new wideband, new front clear turn signals, polished a fer parts myself and reinstalled a bunch of parts I had ceramic coated by JDub, new...
Ok so I'm looking over my cams while covers are off and I look back behind number 6 cam lobes, and underneath the plug valley is some heinous looking shit. Looks like a pile of molten aluminium. What the hell is this and how worried should I be???? The left side of the pictures is the back of...
Anyone?? I just looked at the mock up in the "please make a DP for ebay manifold" threafd and saw that external WG and it looks retarded big, as they all seem to be, just wondering why they are all so damn big?
Pulled my shifter this afternoon to change pivot bushing and shifter gasket with new ones picked up from Jeff Watson...
So I pull the thing and there it is, the shifter gasket/ring in 1,000,000 little pieces (it was a "green truck" one).... with a bunch of little shit particles falling down...
About to hit purchase on about $100 worth of high temp silicone vac hose and IC couplers.
the 3.5mm hose is $1.25 a foot, while the 4mm hose is $1.00, so I was thinking of doing all the main vac line in the 4mm. Is this big enough to perhaps not stay on, or should I have nothing to worry...
So I'm trying to put my WB in today.... and after the total shock of seeing that poor car all fucked up by some stupid idiot who could have killed some one, I need to find 10amp fused power back behind the glove box. I have power to my other gauges right there, but don't know if thats hooked up...
Hey everyone, looking for a simple as could be 52mm gauge mount for my new WB, and I was having a hell of a time finding something like this, as most everything is custom panels or pods. The only thing close was the greddy band type mount, but I don't really liek that. Does anyone know if...
I'm not sure what material the HKS DP is made from, but the AEM WB sensor came with a mild steel weld-on bung. Anyone know if the HKS DP is mild steel? Also, whats my best (cheapest) bet for getting a shop to weld this on? Should I just go to a muffler shop? About how much should I plan on...
Wondering if these two deals on ebay are good ones?
I know people flame the tok ill. II's, but I want to retain TEMS cause I have the HKS TEMS controller, and actaully like being able to easily soften the ride up for criusing.
Thanks...
Hey everyone,
Wondering if I should retorque my ARP bolts while I have my valve covers off for coating? They have been on there for about 4-ish years and 20k miles with an HKS MHG in there. I'm thinking no, but I guess it couldn't hurt right, assuming I don't somehow loosen one before...
Would there be any reason heat wise to not coat your valve covers? Do they perform any essential heat sink function or anything?? I sent a bunch of stuff off to be 2000 degree coated, and though "why not" on the valve covers.... I still have a chance to stop it in case I'm making a mistake
Is it? I took mine off along with half the engine to get ceramic coated and I pulled the canister off and the vac line looking line on the bottom lead off down towards the elbow ans then nothing... is this supposed to be unconnected? I looked around and didn't see a place for it to be plugged...
I'm about to get some new couplers and t-bolt clamps from hightempsilicone, but I'm wondering about clamp sizing.
I'm buying a 3" hump conected to connect IC piping to HKS 3K pipe. So I assumed I needed a 3" clamp, but the 2.75" clamp says its clamping range is 2.88" - 3.19." So can I just...
Time to replace the years old IC couplers that came with the HKS kit, they are a nasty shade of orange now...
Question is where can I get some? I've seen the pure silicone ones, but I would like another made from the same material as it seems to be extremely durable, seems to be a layered...
There are lots of threads pointing to SF threads, which I never can read because I have no login... :sadwavey:
Can someone tell me how I go about getting a login for SF, and why new accounts have been disabled for ever??
I found this guy selling his car on ebay with some of the best rims I have ever seen on an MKIII (to each his own) and so I asked him what they were and he said Lorinser LM5's, which are OEM Mercedes rims that are fugging expensive.
I checked them out and they are 5x112 (i think, whatever...
