Nah, it just started seeping onto the adjustment rod and I left the res attached when I removed it. S'all good.

No one likes a rusty cock. :troll:

Decided today would be the day I pushed the fuck out of my G8's suspension.

Found some roads less traveled by and did my thing.

There's something about pushing a 3800lb car to its near limit and not feeling any resistance. This thing is near slot like and feels like a much smaller vehicle with how well it responds.

Funny thing is I started getting shitless but the car could keep going.

Track day?

ORP Sep 21. Cost is 320 but that includes 2 entries. 162.50 each. I'll buy the extra one. GO GO GO!

Edit: Found another entry, never mind on that.

Edit 2: Still come! Will be insanely fun!

Cheapest is still online...either from their site directly:

Fumoto Valve | Qwik Valve™

or via their ebay storefront:

seller: qwikvalve2005

When I was shopping for mine, I only found one locally and it was 2.5X the price of buying directly from the site.

Installed on the Buuurrrzzzz

Change the oil myself today. First time doing an oil change and the frs makes it sooo easy.

Engine feel so smooth now except the fa20 is still a freakin loud engine making all kind of noises...

Ikkaku 08-21-2014 09:25 PM

Changed one of the bulbs on our c300's eyelid (2 bulbs each side)

Damn thing has minimal space, and the wires are so short.

Oh, and mercedes gives you blue tinted bulbs so the random GE bulb I bought from Canadian tire doesn't colour match with the rest *shakes fist*

belaud 08-22-2014 12:44 AM

Did this for anime revolution, too bad my own car was not ready :okay:

Where'd you get the light bar?

meme405 08-24-2014 10:34 AM

Make sure you either turn that bar around when driving along, or have a plastic cover for it.

I got a warning last week in my work truck when driving down from the interior, cause mine was just bare.

boibuddha 08-24-2014 02:05 PM

I decided to remove some black trim above each of my wheel arches.

I felt like they created an illusion of my car being higher than it truly is.

Heres a video of the exhaust. Obviously different in person but a lot louder than stock exhaust lol

Ordered 25 different parts for my car late last night off of Rock Auto. So while I wait for those parts to come in, I figured I'd tackle another project I've been meaning to do.

https://fbcdn-sphotos-a-a.akamaihd.n...75568096_n.jpg

Also got an Autometer tri-gauge dash mount on order to hold my Boost/Vac, Oil Pressure and A/F gauges.

And, yes... I'm aware my car is dirty as hell. It's going to be parked in a week for a month while I do some work on it, so I'm not overly concerned about how clean it is. :p




Thinking quite hard about either chipping the current ECU or simply running a stand alone management system in the near future. Would certainly make upgrading the turbo and adding a sprayer a lot simpler.

Needs a flyby video :troll:

Got tired of the Cherokee and GTFour not running right so I built a boost leak tester to check for intake leaks, turns out the Cherokee had a popped O2 sensor fuse (wish I knew that before I bought new relays) but no leaks and the GTFour had a couple boost leaks from clamps that had loosened off and a shitty BOV.

Tightened the clamps, replaced the "SSQV-style" BOV with a legit HKS SSQV and it's running nearly perfectly now.
