Used alot of touch up paint today, did some wetsandsing on the truck. Popped out a few dents a bit. and installed some Sexy Decals:)

[HyperREV]

picked up my new fronts yesterday.

16" Buddyclub P1 with a MUCH better offset... no more spacers :cool: came with a set of 225/50/16 Toyo T1-S with plenty of meat left too.

sorry for the big pic heh

[SpooSports]

Looks good geoff, whos the ricer with the big 17s beside u>

[girlcrazy_4]

Worked on the bike. Changed the plugs to a higher heat range, repacked the pipe with fiberglass matting, cleaned the inside of it and rivited it shut, cleaned the airfilter, checked the pressure in the tires and added a few pounds to the shocks. Also bled the front brakes; put new pads in and inspected the rear shoes. I think she will be ready for riding tomarrow :)

[netfreak]

new tires and kinda got an alignment.. as soon as i replace my rear brake caliper so it actually works, i can get the rest of my alignment :D

[jeffh]

Guess :confused: you can see right away that they are crooked. and if you cant fix something that simple sell the bike and put the change towards actually getting your license. another suggestion why not do a search and see if there is a dirtbike forum for immature idiots like you, maybe join back on revscene when you actually have a car, it being a car forum and all.

[down_hill_dog]

i do not agree with many things jennings says, but this being one. Adam you really do not belong here and we don't want to hear about your stupid bikes. And do realize that piece of shit you brought into our class, will never be fixed.. By us anyways, even if it is an easy fix, noone wants to touch it cause it is yours.

[girlcrazy_4]

whoh... fucking chill. And about the whole car scenario, I'm working on it so shut up about it; I can only do so much with limited funds. Getting a license has been on the "to do" list for quite some time. Not having a birth certificate, getting my photo id stolen, Not having the $ or working such shitty hours I cant get into the icbc office while there open.

And yea, Im not getting it fixed anymore. Putting the $ towards things more importantly needed

edit: this is completely off topic...

[SpooSports]

Well I added a set of 2 inch BDS coil spacers to the truck and a 3 inch trailmaster body lift kit. now the things rockin 9 inches of lift, makes the 35s look small.

Broke the bank tho, pics tomorrow.

[fourtirefire]

stew it's time for 38's on 20 inch wheels, bling blang.. or at least thats what a new duramax 2500 i saw had on it. HA owns that truck by the way.. so money wasn't an issue for them.

Good assumption, but you obviously dont know as much as you think so maybe dont go around saying things like that.

[racer__X__33]

i know that there was a HA that got killed...previously rolled in a 03 Duramax...blue, canopy, flames in the grille, those stock 20's, piaa's all over, creating 700hp+ and mass torque...with propane injection....but he kinda doesnt drive it anymore...i got to go for ride in it after workin on it :D..

[Tchleung]

Upped the boost to 10ish psi... It's getting fun now.

[RRxtar]

today consisted of: front pads, rotors, passanger side upper and lower ball joints, and passanger side axle U-joint. fuck i hate working on fords. EVERYTHING needs a special tool. for a truck where there must honestly be a million of them driving around, a front brake job is such a big ordeal its unbelievable. i miss hondas where everything is 10, 12, 14, or 17mm :D

[fourtirefire]

removed my door window tint, and added some BCDSM decals

what are you using for a engine management system ? in most cases the stock honda map sensor should be able to take up to 10 psi of boost.

if i may just a suggestion you my want to look into a greedy emanagement system add the injector and the ignition harness, with the boost sensor aswell. this system for the money imo is the best option for a stuot street car and with your wideband you should be able to road tune as best as possible then a little time on the dyno your set . also a word of caution after about 15 psi on stock sleeves your playing russian rulet. hope this info help you out happying boosting .

Thanks for the advice, But I already have Hondata with 3 Bar but I am not gongi to use it on this engine. Saving it for the other engine. This engine is sorta a doner engine per say, I am having alot of fun with it, but it's not a big deal if it blows up cause if it does I'll toss my other engien in and do the real management, Thsi engine was jstu to get my car moving for the few months it'd take to assemble the engine. I'm not gonna go any higher then 11psi on tis engine. it's already pretty quick as is, as Honduhman will tell you. I've street tuned with my wideband and been playing with boost retard on my ecu programmers, Ther's not too much more I can do myself with ym AFC. I want to hit a dyno, but the damn highways are snowy to kamloops.. :'(

[enhan]

good to hear you have some kinda timing control, sounds like your taking all the wright precautions what a/f ratio are you running under boost at wot?

I am running abotu 12:1 at full boost. Tapers from 13.5:1 to 12:1 from 1-3 psi about, then from there on it's a steady 12. sometiems dips into the 11's. I'm still palying with the datalogging so I can see exactly where to add fuel and what not. Have it set at .75 degree bosot retard.

Motor is boen stock cep't ARP head studs. :p Oh Oh, and an uber shiney STR cam seal y0! hahahaha

[fourtirefire]

[fourtirefire]

[down_hill_dog]

hmm if they are indeed killer bright i may want a pair.

[SpooSports]

I put the bulbs in today, one is bright and looks awesome its a neat look.

The other popped as soon as i turned on my lights, and no i didnt touch it or anything, its fucked, quick warrenty danny:)

well..finally an update...the GE nighthawk bullshit is as bright as my Piaa's....i feel hurt inside :(....only diff is they dont have a slight bluish tinge against white things on the highbeam

[down_hill_dog]

the anti bluish tinge is a good thing... rice is for people in poor countries, and is meant to be of food value.

On a serious note, if both headlights put out the same measured light amount, you will still be able to see better with the white one versus the blue. Same idea of why ski goggles have an amber tinge to them. With the blue it may look like the light travels further, but the part of the road you actually need to see will be brighter with a white light.

And no you cannot bust out "well HID's are all bluey". They only look blue from an angle, dead on or from inside the car, the shade of light you see is probably the whitest you'll ever get from your headlights.

Waylon said that im guessin? all about the heat ranges...a 6500K HID would be more white than some 8000k purple/blue thang (if im off with the 6500k colour im sorry..but ya know, i aint near to being perfect..i fuck up tooooo much)

[SpooSports]

Craig, the lights are awesome, with the 1 i ahvein right now its seriously brighter than my 2 old ones used to be, i gotta get the other one in tomorrow.

[bluebomber85]

checked thermostat for function. in boiling water it opened up, so why is my motor overheating? because it is poo.

[down_hill_dog]

my beater is recieving a set of 14" Azenises as soon as snow lifts, along with droppped torsion bars, eibach rear springs and a poly bushing kit for the front upper mounts... It already has a CD player, but i'm thinking of upgrading the speeks too. Tunes are ALWAYS good especially when you go on LONG random drives to make yourself feel better

[Tchleung]

haha yeah it's abd when water freezes as you pour it. lol.

Originally posted by onetirefire

It's for the engine dude.

Driver has less factor being closer to center of balance.

But yes it should be..... but looks half as bling.

[Tchleung]

It should be on the right rear because both the engine and driver are on the left side, not just one. Got about 300-400(depending on weight of driver) of dead weight on the left side :(

[fourtirefire]

todays mods.. added a little bump in the trunk...
2000w sub....
1600w amp...

both way over rated of course so it's loud enough for my needs

[jeffh]

yeah the box wont be perfect balabce, but i mainly did it all cuz honda gave me a retard battery that did not fit in the stock hold downs, and the battery was in the car for 6 weeks during body work so honda would not take it back.

[SpooSports]

oh yeah.. i get to partially rewire my safc..... thanks for the wrong diagram apexi:flamemad:

[Saturn2nr]

Atleast the have a diagram for yours... I had to look at my whole ECU diagram and do it myself.
Gotta find a better spot for my power wire.. i Have it tapped into the hot wire from my coilpack harness. Couldnt find one at the time on the ECU.

[fourtirefire]

watch out that might melt in the summer heat being right at the coilpacks

oh yeah.. what do you have your settings at??

i'm playing around with mine, +12% at hi throttle and upper rpms seems to pull nicely

and then -5% for some fuel economy under low rpm, low throttle conditions

[SpooSports]

wanted to throw a brick at my truck today.

[jeffh]

he just ran the azenis' down to nothing and bought the rims off kyle cuz the tires were cheap

[fourtirefire]

finally cleaned up my car properly...
hadn't actually used a sponge and chamois since october or something
and threw my other wheels back on for the fun of it, should be good until we get more snow.. then i'll swap em back or something..
and fixed a major power steering leak, right off the pump was a banjo fitting style for the pressure line and two O-rings inside were cracked and leaking

[down_hill_dog]

good to hear danboy... ahhh i just need some wheels for the civic now so i can throw some azenii on.... i'm getting sick of these 155's.

Use the recomended break in procedure or you'll wreck those pads in a hurry.

[jeffh]

^^ so i should do the steps on the box right away or wait a bit for the rotors and pads to break in? im assuming right away but ive been advised to wait for a bit

[honduhman]

The box doesn't say stick your foot to the floor and break as hard as you can.

[jeffh]

no but it does say
Step 1. Seal all brake ducts. Step 2. Slowly engage brakes 6 to 8 times at medium speeds Do not drag brakes or come to a complete stop. Step 3. Increase speeds to simulate race conditions; allow 6 to 8 high pressure (about 500 psi) snubs at racing speeds. Total engagements for Step 2 and Step 3 should be a maximum of 15 to 20. Step 4. Remove brake duct seals. Allow the system to cool for about 15 minutes. Do not engage brakes while car is parked during cool down period

and no one is slamming on brakes.
and i also am not sure how you perform all these motions without making the brakes crazy hot

resurfaced rotors dont really need to be babied...its just a cleaned up/evened out surface...

that is the break in procedure, the brakes should not even be used without doing this first. Whoever advised you to wait doesn't know. Once you complete the steps and let the brakes cool you're good to go.

[down_hill_dog]

yeah dude. trust me follow the steps, i have fucked up a set of pads real bad because the knucklehead at the parts store told me to just take it easy for the first bit. nuh uhh... second time around, second set of pads, i followed a similar procedure, and wow those things gripped fugin good.

[HyperREV]

got my 6000K HID kit yesterday, 3 days turnaround time from order to delivery... crazy shit.

alright i did all ze steps this morning and they had a good 6 hours to cool so im sure everything will be dandy. a fair amt of brake dust already and they squeel a bit, im assuming this is normal because it says they have increased wear and noise

[down_hill_dog]

oh yeah your wheels will always be black. be sure to get a can of wheel cleaner or somthing for each car wash

I got lots of free dust from Shawn on my wheels:D

[down_hill_dog]

Mod of today:

Changed the civic's oil. Installed a new blingbling FRAM filter. I then clear coated the wheels and sanded the lips.... pictures in random pictures thread.

Fram makes honda filters.

Honda filters dubbed 'the best'.

i don't subscribe the "wheel cleaner"s instead i use my trusty wd40. works wonder for me and its supposed to be easier on my wheel paint. i think its also cheaper

[honduhman]

I subscribe papertowel stuffed under my hood in the engine mount slot dinger.

Take out... wipe... throw out.... replace.

Good for when you need to check your oil on the run.

I use it to clean the underside of my hood too:p

[down_hill_dog]

i have a civic that uses not ONE drop of oil between oil changes. There is no need to check.

Jeff, wd-40 on your wheels? Think about what WD-40 is... What is right behind your wheels? Brakes... You get any kind of oil or liquid on the pads that is'nt brakleen they'll be tainted forever. You's crazy man....

[Tchleung]

I'm primarily checking for milkshake weekly. :p

[down_hill_dog]

hahaha i know what that's like tommy.

Did a tuneup and cleanup on the yz250 today finally. Wow now it is actually a good looking bike, and dang it hauls some ass.. Steve, Adam. Either of you want to race???? lol

[bluebomber85]

I took my bike out the other day and i crashed pretty hard and hurt my knee on a patch of really hard pack dirt.. no racing for me just yet. but we gotta go riding sometime, bring your bike up to glenmore.,,
haha

[down_hill_dog]

i just may have to... once it gets a little warmer out i'll give ya a shout and we'll hit it up

[girlcrazy_4]

I raced the 250 against the 125 a-while back. The 125 killed it off the line and top speed. Let me know before Bill buys it and we'll see if your "tune up" helped any;)

btw: do you have anything that can braise? I need to fix the exaust on the 125 and my welder is too hot for it.

[bigs_Teg]

Upped the boost pressure to 11psi (7 stock) and added a cone filter/adapter. :dizzy: :dizzy:

Next up, a/f gauge, downpipe and 15 psi.

[Tchleung]

Nice. Did you end up witha DIY setup?

[bigs_Teg]

yep, its working great, hasn't spiked on me once. Jumps right up to 11psi and holds there solid.

edit:
And we got it set to 11psi on our second adjustment haha, it was a nice change from how things were going so far

i thought you were spraying it onto the wheel, but also just think wd-40 is like a lubricant... it is going to help attract dust aswell. where a good wheel cleaner will leave them clean and dry. i dunno w/e your choice

[fourtirefire]

did an oilchange yesterday.. used a purolator pure premium oil filter... supposedly alot better quality than fram shit
and.. did a few little things like reinstall my second rad fan, cut down the exhaust clamp on my O2 dump so the fan would fit.. topped up t-case oil, played with some s-afc settings... and washed it today

[Tchleung]

Finished mounting and setting up the new gauges and avcr/vafc and what not.

[jeffh]

toms stuff looks rad like a spaceship

[fourtirefire]

finally got a few things done today:
visual imagery here http://www.imagestation.com/album/?id=2131074340

-took out my intercooler.
-flushed the fins of it with soapy water, got rid of alot of flies and sand
-flushed the inside of it with gasoline, got rid of alot of oily deposits and shit that reduces it's efficiency
-removed some gay plastic thing that suposedly ducts air towards the intercooler, but looks like it restricts flow to it.
-polished up the end tanks a bit...
-ported my throttle body elbow.. it had a nice sharp edge protruding into the airflow
-painted my BOV the same as the body color, looks better than the fugly green shit before

[fourtirefire]

oh time to whore up my own thread...

the last two evenings consisted of alot of drilling...

last night as i was taking off my exhaust manifold to fix a snaped stud in the head... of course.. my manifold to turbo bolt snaps off in the turbo...
so i got out the one in the head easily as ever, then the turbo bolt.. stainless steel 10mm bolt... took forever with the die grinder, dremel, drill, torch.. etc etc

but at least now, no more exhaust leaks under the hood

[Tchleung]

Hrm.. this morning took my entire exhaust syustem off from DP back today. oh what fun it is. I forgot how fun open DP really was :D:D *Vroom* *weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee* <- Turbo whine on the downflow

[Tchleung]

Installed a A/F gauge to a pillar for a buddy and also remounted his boost gauge to the pillar. Install went clean and good. Next up, my box on wheels tomorrow :lol

[Saturn2nr]

Mod of the day:
Tested out the sub box today.... oh fuck yeah.. this thing sounds wicked. Still have to finish it and carpet it up. Other than that its sounds killer. I dont have my Alpine amp hooked up to it either. Right now just have a 2 channel amp I had layin around its rated at 50w x 2 rms its only about 5 or 6" in size and 3" deep. I have it running 3channels (front speakers and the sub running off the bridged terminals) and its enough to kick pretty hard. cant wait to feed it 558rms!!!

[SpooSports]

heh, adda boy, im pumped to hear it.

My brother bought 38.5x14.5 Super swampers today.

Now im depressed i need big tires

[2.5FearFactory]

Finally got my front lip back on yesterday (took it off for my VI so it'd look higher), also put a chrome doorhandle on the pass. side as well (was running chrome on the left and black on the right for a year or so). What else...oh yeah...my clear tails are back on as well...(took'em off for the VI)...finally back to looking like my truck ;)

[honduhman]

Took one of my drums off to find out a spring snapped and FUCKED my whole drum brake assembly...

Bent shoe that dug a gouge into the drum, tore the wheel cylinder apart, and snapped the adjusting wheel.

I'm lucky the drum didn't blow apart on me.

Interested in a trade?

I think I found somewhere that does decent price rebuilds.

Or I can just find out the place that does it for you:p

[Tchleung]

I can rebuild it myself it's easy. It's the rebalancing that is needed which not many places that rebuild turbos do. I'm looking into a ball bearing turbo i think

[Relic]

If it's just a seal that needs to be replaced, then it's real easy to pick up a rebuild kit, pull it apart and replace the seals/bearings.
Just take a look at the compressor nut. If it's ground down a bit then you can tell it was balanced as an assembly and you can just mark the nuts/wheels so you put them back exactly as you took them off. Meaning it'll still be balanced. If the nut isn't ground down at all, then usually that means that they've been balanced individually so they should be good to go back on whatever way.
The hardest part is removing the exhaust housing without snapping the bolts off. The torch is your friend!

Balancing is pretty cheap anyways if you know a place to get it done. It's shipping that costs the most if there's no local place.

don't get to excited just yet, before you plame the turbo just do a couple of checks first if you haven't already , check your oil return line make sure you have good return flow (restricted or blocked) and also that your not pressurizing the crankcase either these can cause oil back up give this symptom seen it alot , hope this helps you if the turbo does need attention leave it to a professional turbo builder with all the wright equipment and tools we don't even fuck with them not worth it get it done wright we have a reputable turbo shop do all ours if you need don't hesitate to call me at the shop i'll get you in contact with them.

[Saturn2nr]

pretty damn good. haha. very little body roll. I am gonna throw on a strut tower brace front and back, adjustable rear sway bar this summer and next year I might save up and get the Koni coilover kit but thats about 2500usd. I'll probably be boosted before I get the koni kit though...

[2.5FearFactory]

holy crap...sounds like some good plans dude :D Are you gonna take it auto-xing?

I'm just looking for a front swaybar for my truck right now....and throwing in all new Belltech NitroDrop shocks all around (hard to find shocks that'll handle 7 inches of drop :lol)

[girlcrazy_4]

Went to PYP with a few buddies and grabbed a few things for my buds lude.

Ended up getting a hood, passenger side quarter window *went through 7 trying to get it :(* covers for the flip up lights, driver quarter panel, passender tail-light, a pair of near new drums, and new looking pistons for the read shoes. Also got 2 of those seals that go between the carbs and the intake manifold. Found a near new cat back exaust which we're getting on wednesday.

oh, cant forget... Got a ricer exaust off of a automatic corolla with a home made body kit on it... its new home is now on the back of a 88 cavalier

well, i think it was a corolla^^^

[netfreak]

did 2.5" piping with no cat or resonator with a magnaflow muffler. umm its loud. next up, turbo parts.

[Tchleung]

It'll be alot louder ocne you turbo. But I would still slap a resonator in there when you can. makes it sound betetr and quieter

[2.5FearFactory]

well...finally decided on some tires....Falken Ziex 512s....gonna see if my buddy who works for a dealership can beat the tiretrends price, if not then I'm ordering ASAP :D ....either way they should be here next week :D

[Chandler]

installed a Fram Air Hog air filter. I figure it will pay itself off after i dont have to replace cheap paper ones.

replaced fuel filter. I love cheap fixes like that, made quite the difference in throttle response.

replaced broken wheel stud

next up, new tie rods, and upper ball joints

[Tchleung]

Cut and welded new IC piping from IC to TB side. Only have pics of when in tacked stage. Fully welded now. Click thumbnails for uber big pics

got some camber adjustable bolts for my front struts, threw em in.. went to kal tire for a 4wheel alignment....
turns out my rear wheels were toed in 3/4 of an inch... no wonder the tires started cupping and it always cornered like a plow machine
so got the front camber at -0.6 degrees and rear at -1.8 with toe zeroed out....

it feels like a new car now, corners are grippy and almost to the point of a bit of oversteer finally! A lot less of a slug that's for sure

ahh man seriously get some caber/caster plates for up top. camber eccentric bolt are ooogly way of correcting camber. and it sucks if you go to take apart your suspension, casue you loose your alignment

do i see a snapped bolt and stud in your turbo??

[Delerious]

new, larger throttle body... 9" cone filter... quite a noticeable gain in the low end... stock airbox was way too restrictive.

[Tchleung]

Woo nice. haven't seen too many actually modifed DSms. Nice Intake manifold. What's the specs on the turbo?

[fourtirefire]

todays mods:
vacumed and dusted the interior for the first time since last fall..
washed and waxed the exterior
removed power steering pump in attempt to get proper torque on exhaust manifold, then re-installed.

NO, its just mocked up right now

Turbo's just your basic t3/t4. .60 ar comp. housing with a 46 trim wheel and a .63 ar turbine with stage 3 wheel

[Tchleung]

Nice. Quite a bit larger then the stock 14B :D

Just looked on the site. Looks good man.
