OK first off, some amusement. The local walmart seems to carry these all the time!


LOL, front and rear bodykit is on but he/she is missing sideskirts!

Second, I got my catback in on Friday, havent had a chance to get er' installed though...

I like it.

And third, my left rear strut is blown! Time for springs and struts!

I can't wait to get the damn thing welded on though... I wanna hear it sooo bad.

Besides... I am going from 2" to 2.5" cat to 3" catback.... I wanna go 2.5" to 2.5" to 3".... and eventually when turbo'd 3-3-3

Front right (Opposite blown strut) CHECK OUT THAT FENDER GAP!

Left Rear (Blown strut) Wow

And because i was tired of looking at a gloss black car with a primered pass. fender, I shot it with a couple of layers of clear gloss...

Before:


After:

I have quite a few other parts still here. Namely 2 dohc heads.

Good lookin build man. I have 2 things to say:
1. Take the second timing chain guide off when you can, because it can cause that noise, and find the top half to the other guide because it could be floating around hitting the crank. So pop off the oil pan someday and look around.

2. KA's do not have 'lifters.' I noticed you said that a few posts back. Just clearing the air for you. They are cam on bucket design I'm sure you saw. Just springs, hats and cams, no lifters.

u should quit smoking. More money for the car? Sorry I shouldn't b telling u what to do I'm not ur mom .

Depending on the price, I'll take that timing chain and one of the KA heads off your hands .... after I grab Ben's seatbelts

the fender looks a lot better now though. good thinking on the gloss clear coat.

i'll be watching

sweet thread man. we have like the same car lol.. black chuki base model FTW!! i like the tinted tails, that's one thing that i have recently acquired a taste for. also that rust on your rocker looks like it's going to suck the fender looks a lot better now though. good thinking on the gloss clear coat. i'll be watching

Yeah, until I buy a new fender, the gloss over the primer will do fine for me... Im a lot happier with the way it looks now, although it still suckz teh big one!

If you want I'll take pikshurz and post them for you!

NO mention of welded anything man. you asked how A (singular) 3" exhaust bolt up. i answered. oem downpipe is roughly 2", oem cat is roughly 2.5", so do you see in any way how your statement about exhaust could lead someone to think that you had an oem exhaust system... the rest of the car looks stock, figured the exhaust might be too.

OK, with the stimulus check, I just went ahead and took my cat and catback to a muffler shop and had them weld the damn thing on. Well, didn't manage to take any pictures, those will come tomorrow, but I did grab two videos before da sun went down... Enjoy... I know I did!

Here are some snapshots of the old WELDED exhaust:

This is where the catalytic converter should be vvv

thats a nice sounding exhaust, expecially for the price. Ive been looking to buy one and i think you figured it out for me. not sure what i'll offer though.

Yeah, I like it, especially at WOT. My auction had a $75 shipping charge (BOGUS!) and a $99 OBO bid. I submitted $70 and it took, so you might try $50???

OK, well i think i will get better daytime pix tomorrow!

I've got two projects I'm going to start up, and I am going to need 6 Blue LED's with pigtails to complete them, and a bunch of epoxy. Maybe even a write up once they are done... cause i know for sure one of them has never been discussed before, but the second I think was mentioned, but IDK if it was ever done...

In the mean time, whilst trying to aquire the alloys, I am thinking about tinting the windows and saving up a little here and there to invest into some coils. IDK, the tenzo R springs are rated @ a 2-2.5" drop, and at first that would be fine. But I think im looking more for a 2.5-3" drop, and I like the fact that with coils, you can go back and adjust ride hight.

Several people on here say stay away from K Sport, others swear by them, but IDK. I mean, I'm not looking to track or drift the car, maybe take it to the drag once or twice a year AT MOST. The only need for the coils is to lower the beesh... So basically something that isn't 1.5K bucks but not a set of $350 coils either...
