Thread: What did you do to your Car today?

Filled the comp g with gas and put $10 in the caprice. Had fun sliding that thing around corners though

Finally got the caprice running well?

Nope runs fine for about 10-15 min then runs like ****. I have been feeling like crap lately so I haven't worked on it at all. I'll get to it whenever I get to it.

Ahh gotcha haha. The things cursed.

I'm thinking it's the o2 sensor but I'll dig into it when i get feeling better. I'm gonna have to swap the one other plug out I haven't changed yet, coil, distributor cap, and rotor and she should be good for a while. I'm completely redoing the front suspension because one of the end links is broke and the car handles awful and I have all the parts in my garage to do it since the kid I bought it from bought all the parts to have me fix it and never actually had me fix it so I'll fix it now and it'll be in tip top shape. Dad told me he wants to buy it so I might just do that and get some money out of it.

Sounds like a good plan. Just try not to drop it on yourself haha.

I'll make sure not to lol. I've been very careful since that incident and my ankle is just about back to normal.

Good to hear haha. I'm glad it wasn't any worse than it was.

Now that it's better I can work on getting headers on your regal

Yes we need to get that done soon. Let me know when a good time is for you and if I'm not working I'll make a trip up one day and we'll get it done. It shouldn't take any longer than a couple hours.

I have to do some work on greg's car, a locals grand prix, dan's car, and your car so I'm getting pretty booked up lol I'd imagine it would take about 4-5 hours or so. Maybe less depending on how everything goes. I'll get back with you on how my schedule is coming up.

Alright no rush or anything. We'll get to it when we get to it.

You're just worried about breaking more stuff on your car lol

Nahh not really haha. If I break more stuff oh well. I've come to terms with my amazing talent lol.

lol well at least I should have enough spare parts laying around in case something breaks.

I scored a brand new never used in box Wizaired intake for the GTP for 70 bucks. I picked it up from CL this morning.

Wow nice score

I thought it was a pretty good deal. I jumped in the truck right away after calling the guy.

I drove it to school and back, then parked it in the street. There's so much snow by the curb that I could literally get under my car and replace my starter without any problems, no need to jack it up. It's on a pretty big angle but no big deal lol.

And I have all of my suspension parts finally, instead of just posting a few pics of them all in a pile, why not build the suspension off the car? I think it looks kinda cool.









And the compressor bearing goes where it should..lol


All quality parts bought.


Looks kinda small really.


That's:
2 KYB struts
2 Dorman LCA's
2 Moog tie rod ends
2 Timken Wheel hubs
1 34mm Dorman sway bar
2 Moog sway bar bushings
2 Moog sway bar end links (already on the car)

It's going to handle quite a bit better after all this. The upside is I'm actually getting credit to replace this stuff at school since I'll be doing it there on a lift in my suspension/alignment class. Then I'll align it myself for free and get credit for that. So it's a win-win-win.

Dork lmao
