JonBMar 28, 2011, 8:05 pm · #556

Nothing to the S12. Bought a Kia Soul for DD - it sucks. Think I'm going to hide the S12 in a deep underground cave for a few years.

Who cares.
It's an SRA. If you parts it, us SRA Elitists will be unhappy.
Colonel GustardMar 29, 2011, 3:32 pm · #560

i dont have an SRA but i sure as hell bee nlooking for an SRA hatch to swap a VG into, dont part it, i will find you, and Chris Brown your ass

backwoodsbuilderMar 29, 2011, 7:09 pm · #562

im not parting  unless the notch needs a part lol and im thinking  they hold a "run what u brung" street cars race each other so i might throw dads sbc 327 in it or use it for the burnout contest lol.

didnt do much to the mkll  just bottened back up all the engine bay wiring,pulled the ac radiator an lines. o And put the 84 grill&markers in it :)

Got my parking insurance changed to driving insurance and put the battery on the charger. Fuck yeah!

imtheguy247Mar 29, 2011, 9:21 pm · #566

Lmao. Where i'm from, you practically need to have Parking Insurance. I swear in the past week i've heard probably 6 cars from my block alone be scrapped, or rear ended by dumbasses driving by. I'm scared to walk outside one of these days and seeing my S12 on the neighbors lawn :/

heithMar 29, 2011, 11:54 pm · #567

installed new clutch slave cylinder didnt need to but had t laying around

MaxpowMar 30, 2011, 1:37 am · #568

Just fixed the intermittent no spark fail issue it was having. Runs great again. Really happy with it finally.

Now I just gotta do my lady's brakes and I'm done for the night.

loking at the hole on the side of my block which coolant enter the water pump holding some pipe taps
1 inch pipe tap is to small
1 1/4 is too big
do i ream out the hole
or just braze on a pipe
out of options

JayMar 30, 2011, 6:47 pm · #575

Failure is always an option.
Swap motors?

SlickS12Mar 30, 2011, 6:59 pm · #576

Had this put on a couple days ago.  It doesnt sound bad for only being a cat going into a 2.5" straight pipe all the way back.

This was a little mod from the initial build.  Guess what it is?
(http://i445.photobucket.com/albums/qq180/westsurfer87/IMG_0907.jpg)

Then i was wondering if this should go on now or wait until the whole car gets painted..

MaxpowMar 30, 2011, 8:41 pm · #579

Installed new dash vents, rear side lights, headlight motor dash switch (Mine has broken tabs so its wrapped thick with electrical tape so i dose not pop out), Made a getto setup for my horn since i have a new wheel installed, a rear bumper lens as i overtightened one of them yesterday after cleaning it :( then i got bored and just sat in my car listening to music. Not motivated to even touch the motor right now tho I have all the parts, just to much to get done

newby200sxApr 4, 2011, 7:27 am · #582

newby200sxApr 6, 2011, 7:54 am · #590

RB25sx - SLPRApr 6, 2011, 4:13 pm · #591

rising sun is quite played out in my opinion, but perhaps now it can be taken as a salute to Japan post-tsunami... ?

Kinda like that junk where the entire american populace started running flags on their cars after 9/11?  I hate when people do stuff cause it's the "in" thing.
Jeremy AApr 6, 2011, 5:06 pm · #593

That radio bezel looks sick man!!! Nice idea!

silverton on 04:47:20 PM / 06-Apr-11Kinda like that junk where the entire american populace started running flags on their cars after 9/11?  I hate when people do stuff cause it's the "in" thing.

I kinda viewed that as more of, a country attempting to be a little bit more patriotic and united after a tragedy,  even if it was just a little sticker or whatever.  If the Japanese are rekindled in their love for their country after this even more life-ending disaster and everyone starts to use little things like stickers or whatnot to show it,  would you think that was junk and hate it because it's just the "in" thing to do?  Just a thought,  no anger at all man  :nerdystraight:

Now all you need is some rotors, calipers and carriers, coilovers, and my tie rod setup!
After losing the LCA, and throwing an S13 ball joint in the S12 LCA.

Jeremy AApr 7, 2011, 2:01 am · #597

So the S12 LCA/S13 ball joint is your preferred method over potentially using the S13 LCA'S? Ahhh, do you think those carriers are too shitted up,  or why would I need new ones(I assume the carrier is that dome cap)?  And is your tie rod set up documented anywhere so I can read up on it?  Woooh

Jeremy A on 05:06:46 PM / 06-Apr-11would you think that was junk and hate it because it's just the "in" thing to do?  Just a thought,  no anger at all man  :nerdystraight:

Nah, I just don't like how it takes an epic tragedy for everyone to show support for their country.  They should just do it no matter what.

your car now has cancer.

I had a coolant leak this morning, like bad.  But.... it stopped on its own accord and I'm not missing ANY coolant.
