I don't know where to begin with this car. Everything has been replaced except the block. I want to ditch somethings and get new parts. I enjoyed 15+ pounds while it lasted. Hopefully nothing else will go wrong so I can start making this car what I want it to be.
Oh and for the people who say I bought a modded car, kiss my ass. Its an engine swap that would have been done anyway with basic mods. I skipped step 1. Dont like it? Get the **** out. Oh and paying for getting work done to your car = gurentee. You **** up, whos fault is it?

Since you are gonna go turbo later on then I wouldn't waste the money for a header.
jspek
10-31-2006, 10:51 PM
yea i know...still debating it. i just want a lil more power now. instead of waiting months haha.
TalonTsi97
10-31-2006, 10:52 PM
Good luck with the turbo setup, i wouldnt mod it anymore and just save for that, unless its parts that can be used with the turbo setup.
The little bit of power your going to gain from the headers, is it really worth that money now and then to be sold and respent on a turbo? Its winter power will be useless. Save themoney and make a faster turbo car

The only gripe I have about the car is the brakes. If I go over an bump or deviation in the road while braking, the ABS kicks in and I lose most of my braking power. Kind of scary. Big brake kit ftw.
Looks nice man!
Only thing is a BBK isn't going to solve that issue.

And if it makes you feel any better my car has been through a hit and run before also and I know how much that sucks. Not to mention I came out to my car yesterday morning and there was a huge dent in my hood that I had no idea where it came from (F***ing falling branches I think).
Now I need a band-aid on my hood.

I think it is an aquired taste, I personally think the lights and wheels would work well together, but at the same time blue and gold is very common now because of subaru.
EDIT:
Maybe if you still have your stock wheels you could paint them. Just a suggestion.

I just left my buddy George's place....we stripped all of the valuable parts from the Chazmobile, and left its skeleton sitting on the side of southbound 95 :lol:
Seriously, the hood is off and George is probably still tearing into the top end off the engine as I type this. What a project! If all goes well, Chaz will be drifting in no time.

ok so yea the head is warped. def not from me driving it cause the car never warmed up when i was driving it the whole 3 miles it would go. but the block is fine, and looks to be in good shape. eh whatever. cant say that im not surprised. i stayed optimistic about this and hoped it wouldnt need to be resurfaced. eh...

Thats no good. The whole lack of coolant situation might have something to do with that :mrgreen: The black sludge like substance that came out of the lower rad hose wasn't nice. Hopefully it is close enough to get milled.
jspek
02-28-2007, 08:37 PM
yea hopefully. but yea the most probable cause of all this, a $5 max ****ing piece of heater tube. there was a kink in the system coming from the heater core. that also explains why i didnt have heat. its always some inexpensive piece that causes big problems. go figure. ill snap some pics when i get back over there.
oh and there wasnt any coolant in the rad cause the guy was using water to put in. and yea that **** looked like water from the everglades haha.

That sucks about the head, but from what you said you got a good deal on the car, so now you know why! :)

so im gonna shoot this damn car. all last night while i was driving it around it was fine. FINE. fine until i got 2 streets away and it starts getting hot. only under load. so yea i hate everything haha. might be the heater core is clogged or air in the coolant system. the saga continues...oh and for superstitious reasons, please dont ask if i got the car back from now on. everytime someone asks, something goes wrong lol. but rwd in the snow is awesome. **** your awd nukka.
poolmike
03-07-2007, 11:23 PM
That radiator is probably all full of crap, same with the heater core. It appeared as if some form of leak stopping shtuff was added at some point which has a tendancy to block everything up. George did flush a lot of crap out, but there is probably lots left over.

bleed out the coolent system. take that bolt off the water neck near the turbo and let the car run and put the bolt back on when u see fluid coming out of the hole. also if u want a cheap and thick radiator buy 1 from a late 80's volvo ,make sure its the aluminum tank 1 and not the plastic 1. its as thick as a koyo and the hoses line right up like a sr rad. heres a pic of mine

I agree with D, don't give up man. I know having an old car is a pain, but you just have to work out the problems with the car. Get all new hoses, belts, fan shroud and replace everything you think might go. Maybe even clutch master and slave cylinders.
When you replace everything and it is running right you will fall in love with the car again. Trust me.
