      get a 1 day permit from AAA/DMV, AAA left mine undated so I'd just keep a pen with me and if I ever got pulled over I'd just write todays date on it then go get a new one.

        Smarter to get it from AAA, I'm fairly certain the DMV will date it. Mine from AAA was also left undated.

          Hey guys and gals,

          Anyone have a line on an early model front valence, hood, and core support? I've got a buddy who needs to do some front end repair work. :/

                I'll be up for drive, provided my appointment with the BAR goes well on Thursday!

                  would you guys buy a ebay chra. i gave my friend a hx30 that i had laying around and he was going to rebuild it but taking it off he cracked the housing on the intake side.i tried to help him find info on it but cant really find anything other than ebay.

                  the chra looks exactly the same as the one that i gave him, but just not sure of ebay.
                  any turbo gurus chime in?

                    Any ideas on a vibration in the driveshaft area when I am downshifting? Goes away when I rev match but most prevalent in 3rd gear and lower.

                        Probably best to replace in that exact order too

                          Motor/trans mounts have been replaced. Guibo/CSB is solid. Clutch is about 65%. Am I missing something?

                          Diff bushing has been replaced also.

                            Double check everything today. Not just with your eyes. Move them around and see if anything is loose.

                              Got a small issue that I need your input on guys.
                              I have a 3.5" MAF on my 24v, coming from the elbow to an air filter. The thing is, I also have a Castro airbox I'd like to install and I cant find a 3.5" piece of piping that a muffler shop sells to extend one more inch into the box.

                              My second problem is the filter, the one I have on there doesn't fit and it hits the ABS mudule or protrudes out from the top (cone filter). So what are my options, has anyone done something similar? I can only find 3" piping from local muffler shops too, if you have a lead lmk, any help is appreciated.

                                You could always call a local shop that specializes in diesel trucks and big rigs, I’m fairly positive they’d have a 3.5 inch piece of tube to sell. Probably stainless too. You could also give a Schorr Metals a try in Placentia.
