    Does it look crooked?

    Try tightening it back up, and gently working it.

    Doesn't look crooked. I tried tightening it up and loosening it but it didn't work. The last thing I'm gonna do is try it when the car is hot. I sprayed alittle liquid wrench down there. Hopefully its just stuck.

      Good luck. I popped like 5 out before I was able to catch one prior to it going down behind the brake booster.

      Now once my brother takes the boost gauge out of his MX-6, I'll have a perfect place for the line to go through the firewall and right to the intake manifold. It'll be perfect.

Also, I spent about the same amount of money as I would have by just buying new stock headlights...which suck.
        paint hte cheesy end pieces black, otherwise, it looks good.

            Oh, and I re-installed my freshly preped valve cover, and destroyed my Flex pipe! the car sounds like a beast! If only you guys could hear it... an open header BP sounds good, but really loud. Alos, I'm going to start a phot thread for my car, so check there for pics.

                How did you manage to destroy a flexable pipe? Was it completely rusted? And i bet it sounds like a beast but runs like a yugo since u have no back pressure now!

Obviously I ain't alone, as there are a helluva lotta sti and evo here. Bueler? Beuler? Mazda? Mazda?

                      Hmm, I think I might just do that...

                        I took my 1990 4WD rallying in the mountains. When I get a scanner I'll upload the pictures of a bent hanger bearing and bent front engine mount (rattles around 2400-3000rpm against the crossmember).
                        No car! I soldz it. Now I have a truck. I like it, but apparently it has a hard time keeping up with a slightly modified 4WD protege with half the hp. Neat.

                          It split like a banana! Rust is a cruel adversary. It crumbled at the flange, but the steel weave has been fraying for some time now. I'll take a pic when I can. It actually runs about the same, with a little less bottom end, but at the top end (above 4K) it pulls like crazy. It feels like 20+hp. And yeah, it sounds like a BEAST.

                            Found a digital camera.
                            Here are my sweet pictures of the damage.... I think I'll rally it this weekend too....

                            My Bent Hanger, after I used a strap to pull it off the knuckle.


                            My broken Engine mount, rattles worse than a fart can exhaust.


                            Bent up some of the crappy skid plate.


                            The skid plate is resting on the now bent oil pan and exhaust pipe. Not sure if the oil pan heater works anymore.


                            And heres a bent trunk bottom. Not bad, doesn't leak yet!


                            It needs a lift for sure, that would solve all my problems.
                            Cheers, Craig

                              I ran an open header on my car last year after I tried to make my own exhaust and failed. It was so loud.

                                installed the lx gauge cluster, it wasnt too hard but getting all of the wires out from behind and connecting them again was annoying. my wires dont pull out very far. that plus realizing my new cluster has a burned out bulb after i spent all the time putting it in lol i guess i hsoulda checked it before i screwed everything else back in too.
