shit bout the speaker but ive only got 2 6x9's in the back and thats it lmao sounds terrible but it does me


haha are they mounted in those weird angle boxes as well? :lol:

i think i might have clipped a wire way back in the summer when i installed my new console so i will have to pop that bitch off and take a lil look-sie. hopefully i don't have to buy new speakers, they came with the car :thumb:

thanks sir :thumb:

i hope that with new injectors i will hit that mark, but for right now, i'm having a hard time keeping the wheels from spinning in 2nd gear :lol:

i think my overall plans for this motor if it holds up (over years probably)
get a cam / springs / retainers <--- i want to rev higher
port/polish the head (mostly on exhaust side)
a b-series TB
Port match the IM to the head
ball bearing turbo :twisted:


well for now, the car is running great! i'm really happy with it, i have been beating the shit out of it, boosting everywhere and doing some heavy pulls and it returns to idle perfectly :D
still have the catch can fumes so i need to figure that out....

Thanks man, i really like this one personally, the sig turned out great, i like the spoolin pic too...kinda just a random thought at the time :thumb:

i'm excited for the meet in Janurary, hopefully the weather is good and people can turn out.
it's funny, cause i used my roommates camera and its an older cannon powershot a90, 5.0 Megapixels. i thought that it would be better than my blackberry camera either way :D

#160286 well, when i was driving on thursday, hit my brakes hard and i blew the 4040 Prop Valve little rubber diaphram which seems like it is a pressure relief of some kind. it's a very rare failure and of course i get that shit to happen to me :lol: the brake pedal sunk to the floor a few times driving around the city which is scary

it caused fluid to spill out and gush everywhere...car was in the garage for like 3 days, replaced it today and she's back on her feet.

here are the two valves, the one on the bottom is the one that failed:

cleaned my windows also :thumb:

here are some pics: (im pissed)

#165514 That sucks so much. Hopefully just a weld down the crack will fix it.

Good luck man. :thumb:

#166329 yeah it sucks man...i popped off the DP last night and here are some pics:

i'm going to take it to an exhaust guy and see if he can do anything for me but i somewhat doubt it...i don't want to have another custom one made cause that will suck ass and cost a lot :thumbdown:

however, i did order a muffler, figured i might as well since i got this exhaust shit going on:

That is one hell of a crack, so much then I first thought looking at the orignal pics.

Hella sucky man. If it was mine I would attempt to reweld on the crack.
