36 watts is pretty close to a set of bulbs too.

I pulled the fuses for all the headlights, fog lights, tail lights, nothing phased it. Once I pulled #27 I saw the drop. My interior headliner lights are all unplugged as my headliner is out. Maybe one of the loose wires for those lights is shorting? I will do a bit more investigation next chance I get, it was a little too rainy today to start tearing things apart. The draw was actually ranging from 2.3-2.7A.

Are you suggesting that he has two bulb lit that he ingored? I'm at a loss.

That's not it.

Hey I've seen it before, either issues with grounds/draws on interior lights where they wont show light but are shorting, or the trunk one.

Thats probably not it though yea.

#27 says sound system too, is one of your speaker wires unplugged and shorting? but you would probably hear issue with speakers.

I guess there must be a few differences between the MX0 and the S14. Here is what the S14 owners manual gives:

Where can I source mandrel bends/exhaust fab supplies locally? Looking for premade stuff to start piecing together an exhaust, checking locally before I order online or anything. Thanks guys.

When I ordered all the turbo stuff for the trans am I got it all from Ace Stainless and Columbia River Mandrel(same place IronJoe mentioned). Good stuff. Order extra though. Do you have a chop saw?

[kid325e]

Yeah i'm thinking i'll order to Columbia River - i've heard nothing but good things from you guys and a few local vendors.

I don't have a chop saw...yet. I think i'm getting one for Xmas, and have a good lead on a Rigid Miter Saw Setup for 50.00 from a coworker. Barely used, already has a metal cutting disc on it. Excuse me if i'm using the wrong terms, etc. I'm new to these types of tools. Is a chop saw and a miter saw the same thing?

Sorry for my ignorance, but you gotta learn sometime, right?

I have a chop saw you can borrow Paolo. Hit me up if you need it.

Everyone's favorite place to take pics of their cars in the Seattle area...

Nice, I may take you up on that but more importantly i'd love to meet up and just catch up. Been too long man! You don't happen to have the tools to do wheel bearings do you?

[Gerta]

I don't but I was thinking about getting them. I think I have an issue with my left rear one due to the wheel wobble.

[kid325e]

yeah, my ix has been needing a couple of them done for awhile, been dragging my feet on this one for too long. Wheel bearing party!

just made it home from Lake Tahoe, and the first thing I did was check on the E30s. While letting the m42 sedan warm up, it locked itself shut (with keys in ignition). ugh

ended up busting the window with one hit of the hammer. picking up a new door/window tomorrow (I chose the dented door) lol just my luck...

happy holidays!
