  1. I like the guy that wired his airbags to his radio, so if they yank out/un plug the radio the airbags go off lol.
  2. Well I suppose the worst happened lol. The head is warped you can tell in the pictures maybe. I can see daylight under the straight edge so it is time to figure out first if the head is able to be planed, and secondly who to have do it. No, the straight edge is not resting on the open valve as it may appear, and the gape is out of spec. So, I'm not just going by eye it has been measured. http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z39/crossle_sean/DSC02376.jpg http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z39/crossle_sean/DSC02375.jpg http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z39/crossle_sean/DSC02378.jpg
  3. Just for shits thought I would toss this up for those bored to read. Bought this car off a customer at the shop has a blown head gasket. Needs to be replaced and I will be selling the car once complete. Cost of car - $1,000 Cost of Parts as of today - $336.80 Parts courtesy of James (Odoyle) at O'reilley auto parts at Hudson and High and Ed at Dennis Hyundai (head bolts) Have about 45 minutes into it yesterday (Friday) and this was progress from yesterday. http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z39/crossle_sean/DSC02374.jpg http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z39/crossle_sean/IMG_0081.jpg http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z39/crossle_sean/IMG_0082.jpg Now today got up a little later to hit the bank at 9, got to the shop about 9:30-ish and this is progress until now (2.5 hours) http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z39/crossle_sean/DSC02370.jpg http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z39/crossle_sean/DSC02371.jpg http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z39/crossle_sean/DSC02373.jpg http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z39/crossle_sean/DSC02372.jpg Updates to continue through today, expect to be done this afternoon assuming no other parts are needed.
  4. I'm really disappointed with where cars are headed. Although that is my opinion, fender benders are human error. Why dumb down society by making things easier? Why not make it harder to get your license and the odds of fender benders will go way down. Then let's consider the point of getting in your car is to drive, not eat, text, apply makeup, etc.. I like cars the way they are minus hybrid technology, let's stay here for awhile and see what happens.
  5. people at sawmill still, bunch rolled in as we left. Nice meeting a couple new guys.
  6. AMEN except I'm still going to go and eat their shitastic food
  7. Fuck sonic I'll be there if I'm allowed to...
  8. We take 4-5 to the yard every couple of months when we replace them at the shop. No ID/plate required at research alloy. On the plus side Joe (the owner) knows me, but still. There is also a guy that comes around to the shop everyonce and awhile and will buy them off us. Just my experience

  10. Remember I said maybe, I've got more in the wheels than you offered me.
  11. Yes, my N/A wheels are on my white car and I'm trying to sell my 300zx wheels as we speak. I'm in wheel limbo right now...
  12. He now has an intro thread...
  13. Hi Randy, great intro and welcome to the board! LOLZ at the wing thread, even funnier now that I know you wrote it haha!
  14. What motor? Be aware that if the pump is near the back and it looks like you can't get it out due to the frame. Pull the passenger engine mount and it comes right out. Not a HUGE deal.
  15. To OP, congrats looks clean. I saw your car on craigslist and was like man that looks familiar haha. If your interested I have a set of rattle can black Z32 wheels if your interested for winter rubber. They can be yours for $120 with Kumho V700's on them. LOL at everyone else bickering over cars. All cars are piles of shit, just depends on which pile will be bigger. Why do you think we have jobs? Oh and Ford's in general are near the top right with VAG which is where I find the LOLZ. Idc which us cheaper, I would rather deal with replacing parts (VAG) rather than the entire rusty car (Ford).
  16. Holy shit, that is really neat. Love the small details
  17. Suburban? That is a ton of seats BC.....jeez
  18. I don't remember the link, but there is a photo time lapse of it being put up. AND it contines through the night and you could see the COS meet going on on Friday night in the time lapse lol.
