cookisgood, thanks for the heads up I am just going to run 80w-90


The motor is in the car!, just got to hook everything back up tomorrow and I will be off driving again!

sorry for the shite quality it was taken with my iphone

[cokeisgood00]

actually iphone doesnt have that bad o quality

[Burnall4]

actually iphone doesnt have that bad o quality

yeah its hit or miss, depends on the light since they don't have a flash, this one was taken with my iPhone











Now i need to find seats for my car and I will be in business...any one know where i can get some Sparcos/Recaros/Racing Reclining seats for less that my arm and my leg??

[Burnall4]

oh forgot got my Billy Sports and tires Falken Azenis 615s (still trying to decide on what wheels I want, I will do that after it comes back from the body shot) in today...here are the pics



Another iphone shot, you can tell what I am talking about the light....my mom has my digi camera right now

Cool stuff man, Always nice to see progress.

[cokeisgood00]

yeah sometimes the iphones pix get that fuzzy thing.

You are going to love those tires!

[Burnall4]

Does anyone know where i can score some Sparco/Recaro/whatever some what cheap in good condition...nothing is ever for sale when I have the cash, and always for sale when I don't....thus is life?

Please don't say EGhey...i hate EGhey and don't want to business on there unless I absolutely have to, I rather buy from a vendor/forum member and support the community!

You are going to love those tires!

that is what I have heard, i have had Azenis on every car I have owned since they came out, but this is going to be my first pair of 615s :-D so excited, even though they are stock sizes, I will get them on what ever wheel/tire combo i chose, i am leaning toward black eneki rpf-1s, what do you think?

[Jean]

Good light wheels, a friend of mine is runnning them with some bfg r1s .

[Burnall4]

So i just rebuilt my engine put it back in everything plugged back up and then I go to start the car and it starts up for 2 secs hits about 1000 rpm and dies...

here is what I have checked

Idle control bypass valve
MAF (see bleow)
Fuel Pressure
Timing
etc...
So here is what I have figured out...

1. I put the car back down on all 4 wheels/tires
2. Started it one last time
3. It ran, but sounded like SHIT
4. Checked the spark plug/wires/etc...
5. Noticed the MAF plug was not plugged in
6. Plugged the MAF sensor back in
7. Car cuts off instantaneously


So I am making an assumption that it is the MAF that has gone bad?
Any thoughts?

It was the timing....now to fix it...

It was the timing....now to fix it...

So you did not do a full rotation while the engine was out of the car to make sure you were not a tooth off? For shame. Hope you did not tap any valves.

Owner before him was in the band GWAR

Excellent.

[Burnall4]

It was the electrical timing now the mechanical, sorry I did not specify

THE CPS, TPS and ICV were all not working properly, due to my idiotic moves!

And there was one massive vacuum leak...fixed! Will update thread with some after shots after I detail the car!
