I'm crossing my fingers,and I will pay! I'm already in debt to you for that smog passing exhaust. If you want my first born let me know*

Coil for ya.

Kevin M · 2008-04-14, 05:46 PM

Already sold.

sybir · 2008-04-14, 06:28 PM

Hey, I tried.

van · 2008-04-14, 07:34 PM

Thanks for the help Sybir, I got lucky a few weeks ago and got for good ones from Japan for $85 iirc, just in time for the autocross

. I installed my rear sway this week, I'm gonna get 4th in novice this weekend

van · 2008-04-14, 07:35 PM

I meant FOUR good ones

van · 2008-04-14, 07:39 PM

Btw , since I'm upping my posts, the stuttering boost problem was because of a dirty ass maf sensor....or fuel filter? I replaced the filter and cleaned the maf and all has been well since.

sperry · 2008-04-14, 09:16 PM

"ass maf sensor" eh? What does that sense?

Ass is just another word for donkey.

I don't know, but I have a feeling that burgers are like 87 octane, Mexican food is edging up towards 91, and cabbage is like running leaded race gas with no filter element on the turbo.

That sounds more like an AMF, Ass Mass Flow sensor.

:yuck:

van · 2008-05-28, 10:28 PM

well it happened, the L tranny finally took a shit. 1st and 2nd gear have no power and a shitty gears spinning sound. Gonna have to limp it for a couple of weeks and hope they're cheap at pick'n'pull, probably going to miss the next autocross too..........suck

cody · 2008-05-29, 07:04 AM

Sucks man. Could you swap to a WRX tranny?

van · 2008-05-29, 07:38 AM

Sweet!, I just went out and jacked up the front of my car in my pajamas.I appear to have broken my F R axle shaft. I will replace that this weekend and hope thats all that is broken.

I could but it would be too expensive by the time I switch everything over to the hydraulic clutch setup

.

cody · 2008-05-29, 07:41 AM

Gotcha. Hope it's just the axle!

Kevin M · 2008-05-29, 07:59 AM

Front axles are like $65 new with no core charge, or you could probably get 2 at D&D for that much.

van · 2008-06-02, 08:03 PM

$35 at D&D. Nice guys too

van · 2009-03-22, 12:55 PM

The top tank or the overflow tank?

...I think I've got a spare one of each if you'd like to try 'em!

van · 2009-03-22, 02:01 PM

The top tank, the plastic(on mine) tab that the overflow line connects too broke off. I would like to not have another epoxy fix job in my engine bay

. If you get a chance can you take a picture of it?

The spare I've got is the older metal style tank. I had to switch to the newer plastic style in order to clear my intercooler piping.

I'd have to move 3 cars and dig through boxes to take a picture and it's cold and dark now, but I can do it one of these evenings this week for ya. But it looks like this one:

Kevin M · 2009-03-22, 08:06 PM

I have one in a nice convenient easy to access location Van, but I'll need it (or another) back soon.

van · 2009-03-23, 03:40 PM

Thanks Guys, I Might have to fab up a bracket to secure it, and get new hoses. I will look around online later tonight to see if anyone has switched them before. Off to my garage!
