Nick.. do it.. My new set started squeaking and I gave them the pissed off driver beating for a day or two. No more noise.
Currently:
Need to finish rebuilding the heads, put them on, LIM, SC, all the wiring and vacuum lines, plus everything else taken off to do the cam swap.
Trunk needs to finish being shaved, and the new spoiler needs to be painted and mounted.
I'm happy to say almost nothing is wrong with my car, after spending tons of time and not too much money on it(surprisingly, I've replaced a LOT, but I bought everything online and did it myself, saving thousands)
All it needs is new front wheel bearings and struts and it's a done deal. Ehh, and maybe new tie rod ends and lca bushings if wanted to be picky.
Trash it sell it call it a loss never look back blah blah
Drivers rocker panel is pretty rusted
Slow oil leak from somewhere...I'm guessing VC gaskets...I smell it burning every once in a while, and see a bit on my garage floor.
Knocks from the front corners - guessing LCA bushings or strut mounts
PS whine...kinda sounds like a SC, but I'm NA
Getting some rust pimples under my fuel filler door (anyone know what color I need to match bronzemist metallic? lol)
tail lights look like absolute crap
Rear end is starting to sag...it's an '01 with 100k still on factory suspension...might be getting a bit tired...lol
Ummm...I think that's about it...
@loopy smurf: that ps pump is an eiho(sp?) de puta (son of a b1tch), i had to change mine twice because the first time the high pressure line unthreaded itself and completely drained it. it made some noise with ps fluid the first time, so the second time i drained alot out of th whole system (unfortunately not as much as i wanted though) and filled with red atf. perfectly quiet. also dont overtighten the bolts, i snapped the top one (ugh)
Having a GP, I will always have a list of things wrong.
* Rotted right rocker
* Rusting left rocker
* Cracked front sway bar
* bad front sway bar links
* bad rear sway bar links
* bad tie rods
* front lower control arm bushings
* need camber bolts
* many hail dings
* rear spoiler cancer
* rear left window regulator
* A/C quit working
* Oil pan gasket leaking (slowly)
* All 4 struts blown
* rear bumper missing paint
* front bumper just needs replaced
* need new plug wires
* front 2 tires are shot
Where do I start...
Exterior rust everywhere
Front 2 struts need replacing
Strut tower rust on all of them
A'c blows hot
rusty rocker panels
Passenger window doesn't work
Steering wheel controls don't work
Needs tires
Water leaks in on passenger side
Saggy interior fabric
Well you were aware of that before purchasing, and knew it was not going to change lol
Only thing wrong with mine is the IC needs installed and it has a slight exhaust leak.
Getting false abs pump activation. Occurs intermittently when accelerating from a stop with the steering wheel turned. No dtc are setting. Plan is to record a snapshot with a scan tool when it occurs...then plot the data on a computer and watch for which abs signal is dropping out. Will inspect the wheel speed sensor for that wheel and replace the wiring first and if that don't fix it, the hub.
on my list of things to do to the 98.
Fixes needed ASAP
-Sunroof Repair (just doesn't seat right, want to have it done before winter sets in)
-Figuring out the ABS and Trac control and what is triggering it to shut down.
-Window motor replacements.
Undecided
-whether to attempt to remove the window tinting that the car came with. Really don't need the fuzz being a pest. Think it is more than allowed in my state.
-Getting the rear spoiler touched up and a few extremely minor dents and marks dealt with.
