Yeah, im trying to quit... Im slowly cutting back. Every day I smoke less and less!Didderson wrote:If you're buying timing chain parts I'll sell you my ka de timing chain. It had 75k miles on it before I tore the motor down to part it out.
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 .
Haha, the rocker rust is nothing compared to my frame rail rust!m tr4nch wrote: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
I know you are NOT telling me HOW my car is setup.... When the person before me WELDED straight pipe all the way through and then you tell me that it "will bolt right up" damn peepz! I dont want to sound like a d!ck but damn man, I know what a welded exhaust looks like....mrgreeneyes wrote:your exhaust will bolt up. i dont understand why you think it wont. no welding needed, just get under the car, unbolt old exhaust, bolt new on... i have a stock KADE with stock exhaust manifold, a 3" test pipe, and a 3" catback. all bolts(ed) up fine.
git under yer car and bolt the bish up
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.pflicht wrote:How the hell does a 3" exhaust "directly" bolt up???
Besides... I am going from 2" to 2.5" cat to 3" catback....
Yeah, not much of an "exhaust" huh? I should have taken a picture of the whole damn thing at the muffler shop just laying there in one piece... It was crap. Yeah. Im bought Ben's rear seatbelts so they are on their way and Im getting a Digital Speedo and Passenger fender here soon so that will be fun!mrgreeneyes wrote:so yeah, i see what you mean about that old... um... guess thats an exhaust? lol....
looking good man. keep the mods coming...
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???ak47johnson wrote: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.
Schweet!!! Thanks man!idahotuner wrote:hey man here is your tracking nubmer for those seat belts
