Thread: What did you do to your Car today?

Nothing. I pulled the skins off the seats took them into my buddies interior shop. I did some electrical work in trade. I did the door panels myself. Just lots of labor that's all. Originally he quoted me $120 just for the front seats. By the time it was said and done I had the back seats thrown in.

Discovered my rear tires rub with only the addition of wife in kid in the car while going over frost heaves on the highway. Now its time to dremel the inside lip of the fender and possible buy new tires.

Why not roll the fenders?

I would definitely roll your fenders, and not trim them with a dremel :X

Worse idea ever. Would be smarter and easier just to use a bat and heat gun and roll them.

Got the low tire pressure warning for the right rear tire. Took a look at the tire. It looks like it's been baking in the sun and a dog has been chewing on it. That bad. So I'm looking for a replacement tire. Looking for Nexen to match the other rear tire, but they don't seem to make a 225/50/18 any longer. Strange.

drove in the pouring rain man florida is good lol

Just go 245/45/18 there cheap and available everywhere

Changed the oil, oil filter, and spark plugs.

Put 15.5 gallons of gas in it.

And on top of that, took the girlfriend out for lunch and to a movie at night. Say goodbye to $150.

It is? Yea talk about the last month of it raining every single day. This isn't Seattle, this isn't suppose to happen.

Was just about to put HD lip on the GXP, when I stopped, wondering how the hell people turn the lip around the corners without cutting it. I cut the one I put on the comp g several times. Unless the brand in the write-up is less durable, softer, than MD(there is no home depot around here with the frost king brand)

From yesturday, self diagnosed my front end knock/clunk noise in 15min after jacking the car up. Turns out to be my lower motor mount like i kinda suspected, the fluid was all over that bracket and mount was alot less bulky then brand new. So will have to replace that soon, also cleaned the outside. Drove to work today, got off and saw and heard this nice 95ish Toyota Supra, probably the 5th time in my whole life seeing one up close.Then threw $20 gas into it

i couldnt bend it no matter how hard i tried so i cut it on both sides even with the vents on the side

Just once on each side? I put around 10 cuts for the comp g :S

OHHHHH okay I see what you mean after looking at pictures. Did you cut it in the middle though? I can't even bend it that much

Drove it.
Datalogged trans current gear ratio in order to adjust sprocket final drive value in HPT.
In other words, my PCM now understands the physical gear ratio inside the transaxle/no more limp mode.
Reason for this was switching from factory 3.29 to a 2.93 gear ratio chain in my Triple Edge unit.

Well, in the summer it does rain just about every evening. However it has been raining all day and in the mornings lately, it's been ridiculous.
Didn't rain today though, that's a first in... forever it seems.
