  1. ya i understand, im just tryin to save you $300, ya know. Shean
  2. im telling you, its not worth it, its a total waste of cash, go to a boat store and pick up a electric turbine system for around $20, then wire it up a throttle switch. im tellin you, its not worth it. but its your money.
  3. i tried it with a stock turbo off a nissan 300ZX, it get a little more air into the engine at higher speed, BUT its not worth it, it pushes so much air that it actually rattle the oil cap.
  4. i would take a set of pully's, i got power steering, a/c, and everything else.
  5. no not really, ive just always hated it when girls pose with cars and crap like that, if you go someone where to see cars, look at cars, if your out tog et laid, go to a club, or walk down the street, shouldn't go to a car show for that. i guess its because of my grandpa always taking me to the old style rod shows and such.
  6. nice scooby man, i dont like the girls though, if its a car, post a car, if its a girl post a girl, no need to mix the two, they are two seperate catagories.
  7. that thing is a beast... I LOVE IT!!!
  8. ok then you know of any other places to go for pretty much the same settup.
  9. Subaru_Styles: ok so i go with ground control, with their coil spring, with that top perch. and the ajustable perch is the thing on the bottom with threads so you can raise and lower your car? ^example ok then what shocks/struts do you reccomend?
  10. but see, here lies the problem, i am broke, so im trying to find stock subaru parts that i can score for extremely cheap to lower my car. supradan2001, i know all about suspension, i completly rebuilt my stock suspensin on my 87 firebird formula that i am trying to sell. i got new springs, built sub-frame connectors, and installed many other things like Hotchkis lower control arms, and an ajustable panhard bar. i know suspension, but im learning as much as i can about subaru suspension now.
  11. well ive been told and read a few times that if i run XT front struts and springs i will get a 2 inch drop. then in the rear RX shocks, and XT springs, and everything off a 2wd car. now wouldn't that drop it to where i want it?
  12. so what keep my stock shocks and struts, but just toss on some RX springs on the rear and 2wd XT springs on the front. see i want it lowered ATLEAST 1.5inches on all four, if not 2inches in front. but also, i dont want it to be all mushy in forners and crap, i want them to be stiff when im driving. i want the car to handle, not to be just lowered. but also the problem with just getting shorter springs is that i will bottom out my shocks and struts much easier, which i dont want, thats why i was going to get the shorter XT front struts with 2wd XT springs, then XT 2wd rear springs on RX shocks. that should give me a 2inch drop in the front, and a 1.5 in the rear, which i will be happy with.
  13. no it didn't smoke out the oil cap, but when i had the two crank case hoses hooked together then on the 3rd side of the T i had the filter and it smoked out the filter. now i hooked my driver side crankcase breather tot he PCV hose on the back of the intake, and the passenger side just has the breather on it.
  14. for me it does nothing, if someone could lye it out as Torxxx requested would be grand. im also very intrested in this information. Shean
  15. i was at the JY the otehr day, and found a nice set of grey mazda MX6 seats, i think, they look like racing buckets, and have a whole for like a 5pt harness, i had to do a dukes of hazard to get in, but they are confertable as hell. and for $150 for the pair, i MIGHT go taht way, or get a set of stock honda del sol seats from a buddy for free, if her gets buckets.
  16. off topic but, supradan2001, where in arizona are you located, im moving to glendale in july, be there the first of auguest, maybe we can meet up and if you need help give me a call.
  17. subaru_styles, thanks, thats no problem, just have to track one down now.
  18. the tripple fine steel whool, works wonders for that and cleaning and polishing wheels.
  19. well if GD gets the adapters out then ill buy one from him and toss on the new WRX Momo wheel that came stock on the STi's and WRX's. that would be nice.
  20. well im with Torxxx, i was not asking for an opinion on your views on to do it or not, but rather and how to hook up the PCV system, i was asking a technical question not one for an opinion. and when you stip emissions you gain power because there is less things pulling vacume here, and recirculating hot exhaust there, that it keeps the temperature down in the intake charge.
  21. redlance, thanks a bunch for clearing that up, it makes sence now. ok so i just have to put my filter on one side and hook the other to the PCV barb on the back of the intake.
  22. for the drive line, get the EA82 drive line and take it to driveline specalties in downtown seattle, on like 1st and something else, just commin off the 1st ave bridge stay to the left, and its down on the right a few blocks down. take them the measurments and it should be like $100 for the drive line to be cut and ballanced.
  23. who gives a dam, im 17 and cant draw worth crap but i can fabricate anything. anyways, because the PCV hose is constant vacume it is close to the driver side vent so it would pull more from that then it would pull in clean air, then the passenger sice would be mainly clean air. because of the difference of tube length.
