What did you do to your BG today??

^eek when you replace your waterpump order part number from the dealership:

B6BF-15-116

You'll thank me later for the ease of the install & high reliablity with that.

GOT THE BEAST TO RUN TODAY!!!!! stupid cold WI weather does not take kindly to my baby

[almighty4wd]

swapping guts on my cluster, so I can have my 4wd diff lock light (will be somewhat useless in my GTR tranny, but eh), curious as to what the hold light next to it is for..? I'm assuming auto stuff. But what does it mean by "hold?"
okay, that sounds stupid to me... hold, as in won't shift out of current gear. Am I right in assuming this?

[FE3-323]

^ yup

[deadly_sleeper]

got some pics, but are on my phone, and i refuse to upload crappy phone pics. i'll snap some pics when i go back out there and work tonight. staying up for 24+ and having to work on your car for 8 hours and then go to work for 8 hours sucks ass

Drove the Miata to work today, and it snowed/is snowing...needless to say the Miata is not meant for snow at all, and I almost had a few "offs" on the way home.

If there's still snow on the road tomarrow morning I'm going to connect the parking brake cable on the driver's side of the Protege so I can drift, since I haven't got the replacement caliper on the car yet.

[OUfb2005]

cleared all the snow off my car and drove it to work.....gotta love the hot air that my heater produces

[FE3-323]

laying there unable to sleep last night I came up with a way to increase the incoming heat, if you don't have AC why not just hook coolant hoses up to the ingoing & out going lines into the exchanger udner the dash.

You asked, and you shall recieve!!!


Wait for it...wait for it...








The one on the left(white shirt) was the one that thought my car was a Ford, and was asking why I didn't have LCD screens and subs. The one on the right, pink shirt, well she looked sorta pregnant so I didn't talk to her.

"Is that a FORD?" Ha ha, awesome. Way to rep the Protege's! Also, it's funny how you look like you're scared to touch them. I don't blame you! Mine will be show worthy one day, as well. Oh, and your brother has a sweet MX6 GT.

[TRRC]

Also, I bought my parts car yesterday! The pro will live again! Mwa ha ha... Anyways, I will probably have some spare parts for sale soon, since I'm stripping the parts car bare. I'll post whatever I don't want for sale here. I know for sure I'll be selling a runnign BP and a trans of some sort. I forgto what was in the parts car. Anyhow, I'll keep yall posted.

Do test run over numerous speed bumps to check for any weakness.

[FE3-323]

you must be kidding.... I don't drive over speedbumps- ever

The strut tower is now officially stronger then it was previously downfall is that its ~1 finger taller then the other side for the wheel gap. almost evens out when i sit in the drivers seat.

In no way is it pretty, but using a flux welder, misc scrap metal, an angle grinder & a drill. Its to be proud of.

Nice. Only problem is that it'll keep rusting since you didn't really *fix* the problem. Dunno if you plan on keeping the car long enough for that to matter though.

[FE3-323]

nope. don't plan to keep it for much longer. In this state theres no point to restore any vehicle. it'll rust no matter what.
main point is its quite strong at the moment. & should be for @ least a few months.
