i am gues it past 2 a long time ago maybe 250 or tad higher


eaxhuast leaks are easy to find just take oyu had block you muffler if it stalls no leak if she still keep a going bang you got leak if there is no change in ideal then you got big big leak


most of the time it the catback gasket or manfold gasket or in man is where the manfold bolts up you loose bolt alot


i still need new body but i 7000 in the hole and hoigh milage cars are not the great car to give hp they will spin bearing and al the other crap that is if it really high milage plus the turbo may be like just about dead



why tht ehell do you wan to sell you toy any way

Gah!

Museum light came on last night when I got home after the trip... I topped up the coolant resevoir and it went away.

This morning I can hear the waterfall when I rev...

I'm gonna burp the coolant system tonight and then say a few prayers.

Haven't even had the car 24 hours!

mine does that too sometimes, its quite often for it to come on in hard corners... hope it isnt a BHG tho, that'd suck :(

NashMan 07-04-2002 11:25 AM

well in hard conner is it just slosh aroudn


any way it summer so you will have to fill it as it will avaporate

Enraged 07-04-2002 11:25 AM

i get the museum light once in awhile, usually no more than once every two months or so, but i think i have a small leak somewhere. i get the waterfall once in awhile too, but i've been told that it might be the exhaust gas recirculation thing coming on, because it comes on to help heat up the engine.

does it have a MHG? if so, check the torque on the bolts, they should be at least 70 ft-lbs. if its the stock gasket, torque it to 70 or 72 ft-lbs in 10 ft/lbs increments (ie stock 52, then 62, then 72).

Enraged 07-04-2002 11:38 AM

whoops, posted this in the wrong thread hehe

btw murray, the page looks sweet! you guys up for the drive next thursday to the autox? if so, lets stop at that rest stop at the top of the malahat, that would be a perfect place for pics.

murray, have you done any polishing? i want to know what i would need to polish my wheels. i was told to use marine paint stripper, and that would get 90% of the paint off, then polish it to a mirror finish.

im bored, so im posting again :)

what do you guys think about getting some color-matched paint for my car, and painting the moldings around the body? check out my 1.5 min photoshop job hehe

Paradox 07-04-2002 11:55 AM

moldings look kinda coo dude

ive done some polishing, not really tho.. just used a polishing bit on a drill.. its a pain in the ass to do, even if the parts are off the car, i have some polishing compound too

it'd take alotta work to get some stuff to like a mirror finish.. check out

Enraged 07-04-2002 04:46 PM

too bad i have no digicam, i could have done a how-to install a K&N FIPK, including how to break a bolt, how to go "whats this fuckin bracket for?" and how to tear open your almost healed 2nd (or is it 3rd?) degree burn!

K&N FIPK.... i LOVE the sound when you floor it hehe, id say another 5-10 hp, according to my butt-dyno.

NashMan 07-04-2002 05:57 PM

Enraged 07-04-2002 06:57 PM

its the FIPK. bought it for US$75, good deal since its US$130 new. they guy i bought it from oiled it up real nice, so oily in fact, it got all over the box hehe.

still havent figured out what that bracket is for.... but i DID notice an increase in power. not alot, but a bit... now im just wondering why my temp sensor isnt working now...

Paradox 07-04-2002 09:25 PM

how you liking the "wooosh" sound when u give it gas? took me awhile to get used to, but it seems cool now... ehhe

ps - i ordered that new K&N heatshield from suprasport with the money that was supposed to be for my POD.

the heat shield is originally off some sort of suburu i think, it looks pretty cool

Nashman, thanks for the visit. Sorry I was gone half the time but I was capturing some video to my computer off of a camera for work, that's why that girl was there. Don't worry about the ratchet and shit, its no biggie.

I hope those brakes work out for you, they were fine when I had them. Lol, u were working your brakes pretty hard with your driving considering they need to be replaced... ;)
Damn my little NA feels heavy and slow now.

Paradox, for the web stuff I can do lots with JavaScript, I know a bit of PHP but not any CGI/Perl, and I can do a little bit with Flash (not much). I don't really have any ideas for content right now, but I'm working on it! I like your design, so I'm trying to figure out what I can add to it.

Hey Enraged, I would either keep the mouldings, or shave them off completely. Here's a quick photochop of what you'd look like:
I think It'd be sweet. (Gunmetal rims too)

NashMan 07-05-2002 10:06 AM

i might paint my rims black just got t find time and see if it will look good and such i don't know i will post pic of my car and paint wheels black and see what it looks like still in nanimo but my sholder still hurt's i choud not drive to vic it hard to drive stick whiht hurt shoulder

Enraged 07-05-2002 12:05 PM

you know how much work is involved in shaving the moldings? hehe i think ill just paint them. as for the wheels, i want to strip them and polish them. its a cheap alternative until i can get some rims.

well, im headin to parksville today, so ill talk to you guys on sunday or so.... minigolf here i come!

NashMan 07-05-2002 04:31 PM

mini golf
