Hell, I been in the club for a few weeks, now, and I didn't even know it!

My throwout bearing went two and a half weeks ago and I've been slowly trying to fix it...

My crank pulley broke the first week I had my car. It should have been a sign right then

 

[Defiant]

Yeh, my 2G needed a clutch and AC repairs right off. Seemed like forever.

Larry, are you CHEATING with that sig?

I want my big one back.

I thought it only had to be 300x300 for the site's built in Avatar... not for the sig if you ref it from somewhere else.

but 20$ from a junkyard, and 40 minutes on a friday evening, i had it swapped.

i don't have the tools to get the assembly off and i tried to get it at a junk yard and it was (believe it or not) nowhere to be found the 4G37 uses a different crank pulley than the 4G63.... i think

 

[Lordpaxin]

bucks county community college .

as for my car, i dunno. the motor is pretty cooked. we're getting in touch with Street Imports, where i bought the motor from, cause it has a 60 day warrantee on it after date of installation. so i may be back to day one with the motor swap again. theres just so much wrong with the other one that i dont even know where to start with getting it fixed.

anyways, good lookin out 25

 

[thehyena]

update... i got my dsm back, but now i need new brakes

My eclipse is dead too. For good until I get a new motor for it.

 

[HokieDSM]

Hmmm. I'm thinking we should keep this as a club. Mine's still dead too atm.

 

[boosted59]

Mines down to for a broken shift fork. Now I've got a run a FWD tranny till I can get the parts for this one. All new syncros and shiftforks this time. Yeeaaahh this is gonna be fun, rolling the tires off through 3rd gear will be interesting. It will be nice to have a working tranny though........

 

[bwhite]

Dont forget to add me to the list - It's running but rearended. I'm not driving it till it's fixed.

 

[HokieDSM]

Nah. If it's running that doesn't count

My 1.8"s got a banged up frontend, I've got most of the parts save a fender to fix it - but its been what's been driving me around for the last few weeks, so it's certainly not dead.
