Thread: What did you do to your Car today?

Tell me about it. I get tired of having to make such a effort getting the car jacked up by jacking it up from the side enough then getting a jack underneath the subframe. So much work for a simple task.

Yep same here, my dad bought the same one like 6 months ago n havent heard any complaints. good investment. :thumbup:

Made a ghetto press today under 20bucks

Works great

Modified my stock air box for real this time.

Right away a tube could come out


Part I cut from the 1st of the 3 part box


Part I cut from the 2nd of the 3 piece box


Look how open it is


Old parts


Red is original opening, green is new opening. Still will get cold air, as I did not mess with the part on the right, so it's still up against the frame. I later drilled some holes in the bottom part, like the one you can see near the right side. That one was there from the factory, I added more to make sure no water could stay in there.



Right away when I started it up, I could hear the IAC valve noise quite a bit more(vacuum noise). I'll have to give it some gas on the road and see how much of a difference I notice.

For your girlfriend?

I'm watching horsepower and got to watch how they make comp cams it was really interesting!

Got a question, I'm on the highway cruising at 80 or so and just randomly the rpm's will jerk real quick and quite hard but not too hard. And it will jerk about 5 times or more unless I let off pedal and slow down then I'll speed back up and it will be fine for a while then it will just randomly do it again, no service lights, just weird actions.

Your headlight isn't installed correctly, you probably have some bounce. The plastic clip on the left side (still in the green section) need to be over that metal tab, not in front of it.

Yeah i put a price I thought was too high and hoped for a trade. Now one stands but I doubt that I'll do it. Wife doesn't sound too happy on the idea.
