No, I guess I don't get it. Spending $2500 on airfare, hotel, and a rental just to see the car I purchased, and then another $1200 to get it home isn't "loving the platform" as much. Being well in the five figures on just maintenance to keep them...

It's so nice to be told that since I never had the abundance of parts available to be over the past 15 years due to the comparable rarity of the vehicle in my country, and even less availability in my geographic area (there have been less than 10...

That's all? Just an alternator?Mines been collecting dust and sits in my garage without a cylinder head because I've been too busy to pull the rest and disassemble.

The limiting factor is your injectors. They're a tad on the small side for pushing anything more than a e316g while maintaining sub 80 idc, so anything larger turbo wise would require bigger squirts.It's anecdotal but I was pushing damn near...

Ohhh, the inspection cover... yeah that gasket is actually discontinued, so I ONLY used the oem sealant listed to use. Just used more than usual and made sure to get it all the way to the edge.

For the cover plate, not any of the assemblies. #2 in that diagram

Did you use an OEM gasket for that cover plate or just rtv? I'm having a hell of a time finding OEM gasket or any gasket material that doesn't soak up shockproof.

Ahh, it's another episode of Fun With 20+ Year Old Electronics Constantly Exposed to High Heat.

Oh. Your first post said you replaced the coil pack, and now more recently you said you replaced it (presumably) again. Even two months apart that's unusual.For years I've had mine one-bolt'ed to the IM either on the side or the back to keep...

If you're looking for loud, go air horn as @EC17PSE says

So you had two bad coil packs? That's... pretty rare. I'm wondering if you have other issues in the adjacent wiring.Swap the last one back in after a week or two and see if the problem comes back. There are tests you can do on a pack but many...

I have seen plug wire boots that aren't vulcanized to the wire. They slip down and it's difficult to get a good connection. Look in the boot . More so if the spark plug clip doesn't lock on well or at all.

First, before swapping the coils, swap the #3 and #4 plug wires on the spark and the coil sides.. you might have a bad plug wire. It's faster than swapping coils. but do that too after if you don't see your misfire move to #4. Could even be a...

Also, which I personally think is stupid, people like to put the hella horns behind the front grille. Maybe it's because they're red but I see it like the aluminum tow hook hanging off a Honda backend. At least the horns have function and don't...

I'm assuming it's in the box because you shipped it today -- the Evo 9 HD timing belt :)

I prefer scrubbing bubbles and leather conditioner after : D

Pull those sill plates (carefully) and take a look under for any rust that should be cleaned up before it becomes a problem. Also check under the rocker covers.

Not an Ambilight just a OSRAM smart strip as a backlight connected to SmartThings and the Harmony Hub that makes it all pretty much Wife proof. No more cases of everything getting out of sync cause you moved the remote while it was still spitting...

looks quite comfy. is that the philips hue sync you got running there?Our main room has a Sony xbr75x900f but over the years has developed dead pixels entirely on its own. Likely not enough to trigger a warranty replacement but our 5yr warranty...
