damn not bad, i usually strip my cars all the way down to a bare shell when i get them to go over them, clean it and replace anything that is getting weak or rusty. It will probally get frustrating as you get into the work of rebuilding the shell but stick with it and it will be worth it. now is...
i would def get a wideband and a logger so u can monitor what is going on. also have you done a compression test and everything to make sure the motor is good and isnt on its way out the door. Better to be safe then sorry and then you end up blowing your motor cause u went to lean.
call him up and meet him, worst case u waste a few minutes of your time. if it looks decent buy it and throw it on the shelf for if u ever need a clutch asap then u have a spare to get you by. i always keep a ton of spare parts cause u never know
i would go with either the stock silver or black. not a big fan of the aggessive wheel colors, to me it screams hey look at me i need attention and then you go look at the car and the only mod is painted wheels and its lowered and the rest of the car is old and rusty
damn thats how they are towards u on the internet... thats ####ed up after all the help that has been given and after we told em its probally the damn oil pump that is the issue....
ive seen a evo over go over 200k on a stock turbo and others blow them apart at 20k. I pulled mine off my evo at 80k and it was still in amazing shape. Its just time for him to either upgrade to a bbk full or a fp turbo if he wants to stay stock frame. He can even pick up a used 9 turbo (upgrade...
Okay well i'm posting in here since i dont have many post even thou i been a member to the site for a little bit. I have been building dsm's since 2003, mainly just bolt on, engine replacements, etc... never really did a full out build. I ended up getting out of Dsm's in 2008 and bought an Evo...
i would stick to around 15lbs at most without bigger injectors. I been currently running 15lbs, evo 3 16g, 450's and a 255 for the past week without a problem, but i also have a logger and wideband (i also have a afpr but it currently isnt hooked up). But tomorrow im putting in my 680 thou since...
I been wanting to go to a shootout and im finally going this year... im requesting some days off work and im gonan book a hotel. Now i gotta get all the cars up and running and get my friends to get off work as well.
Did they pay for any of the body kit and such, or did this company pick up the entire tab? If they paid for it then its not a sponsorship and just a discount parts place. Kind of like the Direct Buy warehouses where you pay a membership fee to join and you buy everythign direct without the...
i would upgrade to a 16g before putting them cams in. I ran the cams with a 14b and it just felt sluggish. Once i upgraded the turbo to a b16g i felt a lot more power gain out of the car and pulled much harder at about 4200rpm's with the cams in and the 16g. I also ran the 16g without cams at...
good luck with the swap, its not too bad to do, just got to have all the right parts. If you run into any specific problems you can ask a question I've done a few of these already as long half the board lol
i would redo the compression check. I've personally never seem one come up with completely 0 across the bored. Either you didn't have the tester completely screwed in or its broken. You should see some type of compression. When i had all the rings shot in my one car i still had 50 across the...
I would recommend getting an alignment done and they should then be able to let yo know what needs to be replaced from there is they can not get the car to align correctly.
Take a look at the upgrade path that is linked on the front page and follow that. Its goin to take more money and parts to upgrade the turbo setup then you might have expected. I would personally start modding your car and once u have it running good and have all the supporting mods then go...
lol you notice the husband has comments from a girl serena and she is like we need pictures when u wake ## ass up and then if u click on her page it says she is 14 lol
and then i'm sure they take there car to pep boys to get an oil change and the kid calls everyone over to have a good laugh and then has to have call you over so you can break the covers off so he can do the brake job.

hey everyone. I'm in a big debate with my friends over which car to buy. I already have a 95 tsi and an 04 ralliart (which just got smashed yesterday by an old man).The choices are a 08 evo, 95 r33 skyline, or building a sick ass 1g awd.so i was wondering what everyone thinks i should...
Hey everyone how you doing. I purchased my 2g 95 tsi about 2 years ago with a b16g turbo, full exhuast and suspension work done to it. After having it for 3 days the car hit fuel cut since it didnt have supporting mods. Then we did a compression check and found the head to be junk. So in the...
