i'll take the car that works more than 10% of the time. integra

both my brothers had turbo AWD talon/lasers. they had 5 engines between the 2 cars

I owned a Talon for *5* days ... seemed like a good idea at the time, power, turbo, AWD ... never again.

Buy JDM. ;)

Same thing happend to MR2 Turbos ... once the JDM ones were available for import the values dropped in half.

When are the mk4 jdm supras going to be available? Next year right? 1993 they came out?

fiyota 09-01-2007 03:13 PM

yup :)

Mod of the day:

-Split my new temporary tranny to make sure things were okay
-Pulled bearing and speedo ring gear off the stock diff to put onto new diff :)
-Acid cleaned/hot pressure washed the tranny case. Wondering if I should paint it?

Therin 09-02-2007 06:44 AM

why not, decreases the chance of it rusting...although i dont think i've ever seen a tranny rust.

Tchleung 09-02-2007 08:10 AM

Was just thinking of painting it to make it look new again. :p

down_hill_dog 09-02-2007 08:11 AM

aluminum trans... It wont rust. keep it clean silver alum

fiyota 09-02-2007 05:30 PM

I'd say keep it clean, and leave it silver aluminum.. or paint it flat black.

Tchleung 09-02-2007 05:35 PM

I'll most likely leave it since I'm sure I'll be pulling it out again over winter.

Unbolted exhaust off the talon and dropped the transfer case so I could find out which tranny I need to buy to replace the busted up one in the talon.......Yes, I have 2 cars with busted trannies, the only reliable one now is the good ol honda slushbox automatic in the civic :D

Debadged trunk, fog covers and de pillared the front grill and subaru emblem.

zumvette 09-02-2007 08:47 PM

Nice Man! I can't wait to get a new grill and not badge it! ...Just kinda wish I could debage the trunk without the help of a bodyshop :p

007WRX 09-03-2007 10:18 AM

Meh Fred is cheap, do it anyways!

jeffh 09-03-2007 02:09 PM

re-dialed the suspension for higher speed corners over the weekend. apparently it was setup as a crazy drifto car.

bmxkelowna 09-03-2007 03:03 PM

im going to say it was past drifto and right into donut mode.

down_hill_dog 09-03-2007 10:08 PM

Took my fenders off today to do a little trimming to the stock fenders to take full advantage of the flares.

I'm still too scared to cut the rears, so for now i've rolled them even further than before.

fourtirefire 09-03-2007 11:48 PM

Did a semi-full clean up of my car, it was way overdue. I can't wait to get my lips back from the bodyshop, touch up my stone chips, and give the whole car a 3 stage treatment.

zumvette 09-04-2007 10:19 PM

lol so the open diff is in the truck and rockin some serious one tire action. super gay having only one goin.

girlcrazy_420 09-04-2007 10:34 PM

Replaced rad-hoses. Had a fallout and came close to overheating the engine the other night.

fiyota 09-05-2007 12:58 AM

messed around with my gas pedal tonight... now the car actually goes wot, I'd say it was 15% closed the way it was before... whole different animal now!

SpooSports 09-05-2007 01:37 PM

Ordered a CAI for the Car tonight....first mod... such a magical moment.
