Ha, I learned my seasonal lesson as I do every year. Don't forget to wear sunscreen, especially if you have it.

On another topic, does anyone know of someone in the area that can lay a good bead? I want to replace my V-band test pipe and was looking to have something made. The flanges are the most expensive part.

 

I finally had time to put my lower intercooler pipe on. slowly putting more mods on. in the morning i plan on installing my hallman boost controller i can not find the directions, i found 2 ways on here 1 is puttin a T fitting between the intake manifold and the BOV then to the wastegate. and 2 is hooking the turbo to wastegate with mbc in between. anyone with any input on which one is better

 

Register on cincystreetscene if you haven't already and PM Kevin Doe. He does excellent welding for a good price.


Paul, I saw you yesterday on 275 in NKY. Your car looks much better on the road than it does in pics. I was in the flat blue Civic going the opposite direction.

 

Thanks Nick! I didn't see you in passing though...sorry. Where were you last weekend......AutoX???

The pics do it no justice.

I am going on vacation this week. When I get back the car gets a new DP (flex section on current one is leaking), Tanabe gf210 springs and some front camber plates. I will install my whiteline rear bumpsteer kit, and do my water pump & belts service finally.

I am looking to get a Varis style carbon lip, some bumper ducts, and some side spats to finish off the exterior.

Then I am moving to the interior.

 

Don't use the "T" fitting.

For the boost source use the nipple on the turbo outlet nozzle to the boost controller. Then run a line to from the boost controller to the wastegate actuator.

Run it loose at first to avoid overboosting anf BOOM. Slowly increase the boost until your desired setting.

You will need to flash your car though.....You will still hit boost cut without it. Easy fix....I can hook you up.

 

Im getting closer to getting the money together for a new Quaife or Wavetrac diff.
I've sold my Evo 9 replica bumper and my ported exhaust manifold.
Anybody have any big boxes laying around? I need something for the bumper to ship it. I'll probably put a couple deep boxes together to fit it. The square size of the bumper is like 25x21 (width and height at highest points).

 

Did anyone head down to Import Alliance over the Weekend?

 

Eli....here is a couple diffs for sale

I sold some parts so some spats and ducts are on the way. All I need now is a lip.

Anyone know someone who would want my 5Zigen cat back and a test pipe????
250 bucks.
I will even do the install. I want it out of my garage.

Heck, I will even throw in my old megan down pipe.

So a full turbo back exhaust.....250 bucks ! !

 

The rents just bought me a condo down at uc, woot. We close the 26, and it's got a garage! Anyone wanna help me with my dp install when it comes time?

 

i wish you would have told me that before november when i bought my tbe lol

 

Thanks for helping in the search.
I've had a few vendors offer me a new one for 990 with free overnight shipping. Mike@Mynes also told me about the one he had. If I can get it for 750 I might be buying it this weekend.
I've done some reading and it appears that the Quaife diff lifetime warranty doesn't apply to diffs in sold or used in the US, Mexico, or Canada. So I guess there is no advantage to buying a new one with the warranty card.

 

Looks like I'll be getting the Quaife...750 shipped. Hopefully my carrier for the diff or my stub axles arent damaged like the others were It'll be a fairly quick job as long as they're ok

 

Check it out ! !
