Tore into the FC with a buddy looking for coolant leaks, found one obvious culprit and one possible one so we cleaned those up, hopefully it stops throwing away coolant now.

Hey Shark Tank. Wrong person. I doubt anyone here actually knows me as i am not that active (lurker). I only own a viper and a toyota matrix for my daily. Other cars i owned are a 68 mustang and 70 camaro. My parents do have a old 348 and sold their quattroporte a while ago for a X5. Parents cut me off after i showed up with a 68 mustang so i started detailing for cash. Sales manager now at a car dealership.


i bought it from summit racing. It is called DEI reflect a gold. It can withstand continues 800 fahrenheit. If you dont need that kind of heat protection, i would try reflect a cool which is almost half price but withstands only 400 fahrenheit.

Anyways, i did have some time to kill yesterday and wanted to see what my rims would like in black. Picked up some plasti dip and sprayed the wheels black with a red stripe along with the fuel cap. Not too bad. Now i just need another day off to do the front. The great thing is i can drive around for the next month or so and if i like it, i will most likely have them sprayed gloss black at the shop.

I have a whole wack of stuff i still have to do and hopefully, one day have time to sit down and write up a journal.

The coupe rear looks good. I wanted to do that to mine as well but haven't had a chance to source all the parts.

What happened to that rear quarter panel? :okay:

guessing you are not a fan of the coupe rear?
if you are talking about fitment, i will be taking most of the panels off for sanding and polishing before final fitment.

the only person i know that sells the rear is steve from vipair. Stay away from him and read the reviews.

Jeff Lemke is also another guy that does the rear conversion (street serpent) but i dont know if he is still making them.

Yeah, was referring more to the fitment. If it was just test fitting, that makes sense. Was just worried it was a poor repair job that some body shop had done. Would have been a shame since it otherwise looks good. I actually love that shade of white on it.

Whats wrong with a 68 mustang :suspicious:

parents did not agree with me showing up with a rust bucket that needed a engine rebuild, new floor and quarters along with a interior. especially when it arrived on a flatbed.

Decided to refinish some beat up Integra wheels I picked up last year.

Detail by Luxury Garage and tires came in, got the te's mounted by drivehard. Perfect fitment, not just have to wait for time off to drive it

Holy fuck that's sexy.

that's just down right awesome. Perfect wheel fitment.

Trading in my last import for a domestic =)

An island rev scene member use to (Maybe still has) the same NSX wheel combo. Colour an all. Looks good.

Sold my old Mazda 3 wheels. Inc APR Stage 1 ECU tune for the GTI next week while the sale's still on!

Not the best picture; the wait was worth it for these boys. Need to apply some wheel armor to them now.

Got my power steering pump changed...

And now the car (exhaust) is QUIET as fuck compared to before.

Any ideas why??
It's an '07 Accord V6

less load on the engine?

Hmm..I guess.

But the difference is so drastic lol - almost sounds stock - contemplating taking out the resonator now

I kicked the shit out of my car today because it wouldn't start. Can't seem to figure out what is causing the problem because it's intermittent. Anyone have an obd1 reader so i can narrow down the issues? I think it's a fuel injector but i don't know if this is the cause of the issue or not.

Be more specific?

What car?
Does it crank, but not turn over?
Does it turn over and die?
Does it not crank at all?

Also I hope you didn't really kick your car lol
