Got my new cars
 
Well one of them.

Finally.

Haven't gone to pick up the other one yet. I'll probably go get it later today. Pics soon i guess. My gf has her camera right now and is at work so i'll post pics of the heap later. Hey, atleast it's paid for.

Inside and out, it's going to be alot of work, which is why i'm buying the parts car. I also found a turbo II that i'm going to check out one of these days. Hopefully i can lowball the guy and say the stuff isn't worth ---- and pick the whole car up for $150-250.......

Sadly, the 7 is faster than my eclipse. I forgot what it's like driving a car with power steering as well. The first corner i took i oversteered like a ----------er and slid the piss out of it. The 4 piston calipers stop the car well but i'm going to replace the fluid and the brake master cylinder. They're not as responsive as i was hoping. As far as gas mileage sucking, i drove it about 60 miles on 'e'. The anoying "shift up" buzzer is going to be replaced with in dash led's. I hate that ------- buzzer.

There will be pics of the restoration along the way. I'm doing a full interior swap including going from a two seater to a 4 seater. Car has no seatbelts....gotta fix that. The signals dont work.....gotta fix that. The bumper needs swapping, the fenders and doors need replacing and the quarter panels need a bit of work. I'm also swapping to TII tail lights if i can find them. It's going to take a couple of months. When i have time, i'm going to bang the cats out so i can shoot fireballs and scare old white people. I'm keeping it n/a btw. The other car will be my project. Bone stock exterior. I have no idea what i'm going to drop into it. Maybe an sr? 4ag? LS1? SBC? 3 rotor 20btt? I dunno. One of the rear trailing arms on the daily is busted so the beast is going to donate one for now.

Sounds like your gauge is broken. Every FC ive ever seen, was on the side of the road when the light came on. They didnt leave much room for error.

As far as the engine, im voting 4g64 wideblock with a conquest trans and boost the ---- out of it.

Pics or ban though. >:(

Re: Got my new cars
 
took pics. Cant find usb cable. :( I took pics of jt's sol too.


*** Sorry jt. Jess lost the cable. I told you she rearranges and looses stuff constantly. I'll try to find the cable tomorrow. I've got to be at work in 2 hours and i dont have time right now. ***


After talking to a guy that builds all out drag cars, he suggested that we swap the good ---- from my gtu to the gxl.

My ------- in dash monitor doesn't work now. I jiggled the wire for the ipod a bit and it wont open now. Upon further investigation, everything is connected with electrical tape. Fail. I'm going to rip it out and make a custom quick plug harness. My ------- neighboor scott just moved last week too. He could have fixed it in 10-30 minutes. :(

damn i wanted them up to. i still want a ride. i found out the run down on the 23. i want it.

jt26 09-25-2008 03:45 PM

Re: Got my new cars
 
---- scott, i can do it in 5. i may still have the harness from the my junk 7. electrical tape. gods nightmare for wiring

Re: Got my new cars
 
Again, blame Jessica.

She gets bored, rearranges our bedroom and ---- gets lost. If i need a shirt from the closet, i say "---- it". Can't ever find ----. I just looked again. I'm willing to bet she shoved it behind the tv stand. I found so many ------- half empty bottles of soda/water it's not even funny. Christ.


I told you you'd want the 23. Hehe. Tell gopaul to give you your money. We also forgot to check if that sol had the stock exhaust. You were so ------- worried about the rear storage bins.....lol. Can't beat that for $10 though. Did you talk to trey about using his cherry picker? You, me and him could probably do it. We're going to need to grab some injectors for your truck. We NEED the truck running.

Oh, ---- the haters, especially the one with a cavilier. Cavilier=------- gayer than aids. I dont care if it's twin turboed with naws and a motec system exhaust..... It's still gay. Yeah, i'm acting hard because i drive an rx7. rx7>cavilier.

JT, do me a favor. Tell your neighboor i need the following from the convertible.

Turn signal relays
Gas gauge
Trailing coil plug wires and pack
Passenger side rear trailing arm
I'm probably going to snag the motor, trans and rear end too.

I know you can fix my stereo. I can fix it too but scotts work is magic. If he doesn't like you or you dont pay well, that's when he doesn't give a ---- about quality. He'll be back. He ------- hates alabama.

he stole all my JL. and never wanted to pay for anything. just trade for sell ----. im starting to think home boy wants 4 for the whole car. and i gave drew an extention

Re: Got my new cars
 
haha. you bought a rx7 I see. Did you buy a multi-meter to go with it? The electricital problems will never end. I suggest re-wiring the entire thing with a kit from like ez-wiring or something. :X

As far as your fuel mileage, with my large streetported FB, I got about 12mpg. My friends with 13b'd 7's got about 15mpg. Base that off your odometer and go from there.

What? The 500/1 and the 10w1's? ---- that. Get that ---- back NOW! No extention. We'll sell it on craigslist. Hopefully i find that ------- usb cord. We need to snatch that engine up asap.


I have a multimeter. I'll bust it out monday. I dont have time today nor the rest of the weekend. Work. :3

I had assumed i was going to have to rewire the whole car anyway. Most of the wires look good though. They aren't hard and brittle with age like i first expected. It's just a few little things i have to fix. I'm just glad it runs good and rides excellent. So smooth. I have a few people willing to lend a helping hand with the car thank god. With my eclipse i was on my own 90 percent of the time. Chris came by to help with the tranny and suspension install but the rest was all on me.

My streetport'd FC got around 12mpg if I was easy on the gas. Wow, that was back when I thought $2.15 for 93oct. was bad. Damn. :3
