Energy suspension shifter bushings. feels more precise altho stiffer to shift. i likey

got some nice Synthetic oil, wow, what a difference! Runs so much smooth through the revv's. I reccommend it to anyone with a bmw or any performance vehicle!

fixed my headlight, now i just hafta get them aimed properly and im stoked.

pics soon heh

threw shane's car on one of the platforms the other day at work to start the cornerbalancing act. and wow, you wouldnt believe how far out production cars are. front left was like 119 lbs heavier than front right.
were gonan have to do another session, see if we can get it sorted.

de-modded a random bolt that decided to wedge itself between the lower cross member and transmission... felt like i was driving a solid steel motor mount car!

my old prelude had a wicked mod today... check RIP lude thread

its awesome when you drop off your bike to get a new tire put on, and the guy at the desk says, "yellow bike that's tire is still probably smoking?" hehe.

good old 2nd gear 10,ooo rpm 7seconds later should do it.

todays list:
intake de-carbonization
new pcv valve
new ngk platinum plugs(gapped at the recommended .028, vs the .045ish the old ones were at)
new plug wires after my 6month old napa "premium" ones came apart pulling them off the plugs... pieces of shit they are..

Today I rewrapped downpipe better with exaust wrap. Also wraped a few areas of ym IC pippnig that have potential spots to rub. Hrm... driveway tuned the car on jack stands, then started her up. first crank ain't no thang. Put the wheels back on it and dropped her down. Also rasied the car up a bit more and might have to go even more as 2" clearence is kinda scary for my exhaust.

Driveway tuning at it's best

lol why not? I shoulda taken a pic when I was jackstand tuning.

hahaha.... ya man.




Retakes;)

bout time my friend. ill lurk by your house and you can show me whats up. detinted my windows over the last couple of days. shitty bubbly blue crap looked bad with the new paint

Tommy if i do say so myself you are the man. you have such a gorgeous DA. I've been trying to get ya on msn for a little while now... I need some help tuning a turbo DC teg. gimme a shout when your on.

Got pretty well everything ready to take my motor out today.

And test fitted a new goody.

put on some rubbers

Put my bumper on today. last time it was on was months ago it seems lol.

did some datalogging/ tuning...
wow those new spark plugs and wires helped tons...

before at 13 psi at best it would get around 23 counts of knock and 8 degrees of timing advance at WOT

now at 15 psi at best it's getting 8 counts with very quick, rough tuning of fuel maps.. and 15degrees of timing at WOT yippee!!

What did you gap your old plugs to? and what is the gap now? I bet that had more to do with it.

exactly.. old plugs were .040~
new ones i put to what was suggested by a fellow dsm'er at .028

hmm maybe the integra at my work could use some new plugs re-gapped

I gap mines to .032ish

giving the beater truck a bit of a facelift. pulled off the front lip sanded primed and painted it white to 'match' the body. also the front grill was broken on one side so i took a hacksaw to the other side and evened it all up, looks better like it was 'supposed' to look like that. haha. now i need to bend the front of the fender so that the turning signal isn't sitting so crooked. starting to look a tad better. going to install a shitty old pioneer cd player pretty quick here and buy some half ass speaks for the door. i've got a vacuum leak and it's causing my motor to idle really high, so instead of fixing that because it could be a hassle, we turned down the idle screw a tad. somewhat fixed it but it runs kind of rough. damned old vehicles.

Got a new mobile 1 oil filter, Quaker state oil, some oil additives and a few interior goodies.

Also got a 1984 Honda Odtyssey 250 Dune buggy... its in the driveway :D

you just bought the worst oil on this planet... burn baby burn... not to mention i had an oilchange done with castrol GTX about oh 1500 km's before you bought it.
