Well got some good news the lasers getting painted officially , mpi sure was uncooperative but finally got them to budge, this weekend everythings getting repaired (hail damage +surface rust ) then the cars getting painted during the week the laser will be clean as it should be

Anyone know how to remove the side piece that goes on the door ? The door plastic thingy to stop people from denting my fresh paint job (not that it works LOL)

:hmm: now all that's left to bring this beast back to factory is a 4g63 turbo engine only if I get a large sum of cash burning a hole in my pocket LOL
 
anybody have a spare lower td05 heatshield (covers turbine and o2 housing) they would be willing to sell or at least let me borrow to test out a theory that the cast iron 7cm evo housing is cooking my alternator?

i start at 13.8v but within an hour i am barely able to pull 13v which causes all sorts of fueling issues

i could compensate more with the injbatadj for 12v range but it doesnt solve the underlying issue and i cant produce enough voltage to charge my laptop off a small inverter so... yeah... :(

There's a 95 talon down Springfield , last time I was there it had the heatsheild, if that works I'll try and drive up there and get the address
 
So how did you make out with your heat shield onto the o2 housing curt? I just backed up my phone but i guess my back up wasn't as up to date as I thought. So are we doing a cruise today?
 
Well been a little while since I've posted here

Currently I'm getting my transmission rebuilt (broke my kickdown band :notgood:) it will be out Tommorow night and will be getting a check up as to what is salvageable (hoping alot of stuff since she was rebuilt 2 years ago with ipt stuff )

While the trans is out im replaceing my front suspension to complete my maitenance on this car officaly until my rear end takes a crap on me LOL

This means that my paint job is not happening I was trying to fix my transmission so i could justify painting it but then we found the broken band when i went to replace my valve body (pic below) and it went down hill from there on :ohdamn:

But next year its on the top of my list to get done since I still have the cash for it LOL no macco crap tho , chudds in gimli will be givin me a mad deal still !

Let's hope no "idiot" rear ends me this winter think I'd flip out an go insane hah they better run if they do tho..

I really need to start a non performance based build thread till I blow my engine cause guess what ? It'd be turbo time hah, one day..

Let's hope for a better 2016 for the laser and everyone's dsms on here!

:rocks:

I'd say focus on the important stuff like the suspension before like you said it shits the bed and cause more un imaginable damage. As for the body just keep it a sleeper I got a guy with a 2.3L stoked out for your car. It's a and laser minus the turbo and you should have everything else to boost it over winter. Just tackle the rusted spots and prime it where you make your repairs. I can get you his details and see what he would want the motor or the whole thing for. I saw you a couple weeks ago on Kildare in my truck. I was headed back home after dropping off my exhaust at the welder.
 
Yeah my goal is get it nice and ready for winter, I'm going to get a 800 cold cranking amp battery this year my 630 CCA likes to drain in the winter

Will be fixing up a few things body wise nothing crazy tho

And yeah Im always around there hah seen a clean eclipse today all red and a red 1gb with blacked lights by Pandora a few days ago

As for the motor it would be nice but woulnt be worth all the work right before winter LOL but dam it would be awesome hah I've got a rebuilt 14b mint condition , one day she will be Flynn again as of now maintain and drive LOL
 
So I installed the new turbo and exhaust and my god what a difference. Not making any fiends with the neighbours haha but that's okay it's the senior apartments LOL. The guy offered to fix it and I said I just did. I'm running the evo8 timing and tweaking it as I go but less knock on this new table. This weekend hoping to get the boost leak done and install the fuel pump bypass. Maybe look at the intercooler mocked up.

Haha no way I got a 800 cca for better cold starts
my old leaky mopar battery sucked.
damn that sucks man are you just gonna get a used transmission?
 
It's funny how much the forum dies over the winter months. We're all busy thinking or trying to do something on our cars. I kept in touch with a few people and just letting everyone that knows justin wruck plans to show case his 91 Talon at world of wheels this year. Sounds like he's don't a fair bit in upgrades this year and it will be nice to see a fellow member of the winnipeg community show that the 4g63t and that the legends of these monsters still live on.
 
Cool beans. He and Kyle definitely have the two premier 1gs in the city in terms of overall condition.. probably the province.
The local group definitely goes silent. Probably because few of us drive them in the winter, and most of us just need a break from them. I am concentrating more on maintenance this time around, and getting more out of the b16g by fixing everything from the exhaust manifold gasket to o2-downpipe flange.

Oh, and new struts/mounts/stops for the rear. 3k rpm (4 by the time season ended due to various exhaust leaks and a bad resulting tune) and its like the video of the dog being held over water, doing nothing but paddling. BBG if I can find a BCS.
 
Been keeping myself busy with maintenance on the winter beaters lately. Ordered misc parts to put the motor together for the tsi. Everything seems on schedule for it to be out this year. *fingers crossed*
 
Gotta see this thing in person davidaus ,got a build thread?

We all gotta go cruise this year

Justin's ride is clean as hell , I seen him at subway an I had to take a look

This is all good to here guys. Yah Dave like Curt said if you need a hand. Well you know the rest. All have some new players in the mix this summer met s mechanic that needed a hand with getting a base line tune and he's down to come crusie on cruise nights. He's got two awd 1995 or 99 talons one is fully operational from what I've heard. The one he's driving is 2.3L Stroker that was built and tuner by speed factor apparently. But the guy decided to part it out and the mechanic bought the motor but he's in need of supporting models for it cause everything is stock on it except for the 16g and a couple other small things. So I think this summer should be a good one. I need to order some new rubbers for my rims cause there's nothing left LOL. I think Ryan will be busy driving his rx7 this year. He talked about it all last summer LOL
 
No build thread but id like to surprise everyone this summer, thanks for the offer on the help boys but my garage is packed and only have space really for one person haha.
 
I'll be there for the unveiling!
