  1. wow....... totally reminds of the white and black zebra stripe paint job i plan on doing here in the next few months haha. thats bad rump roast
  2. well i didnt do much but i discovered that i have leak where my wiring goes through my roof from my daylighters. lmao i was sittn at the college in my subie waiting for class to start and it started raining really hard and well it started drippn on me pretty bad. hah
  3. im not sure wether to call it a manifold a header pipe a down pipe. so im just gonna call it my exhaust. i changed the exhaust flange gaskets yesterday. YAY no more tick tick poof tick poof poof tick tick lmao
  4. exhaust hit a rock on the beach and ripped the exhaust stud out again grrrr.... oh well. got some 6inch KC daylighters at the portland swap meet on saturday. thats a big frickn show. tons of gearhead stuff. picked em up for 10 bucks. took my old headlights and modded the lenses to fit the bulbs. definently not a light to use to see far down the road. offroad lights period unless you have the factory 130watt quartz bulbs. i wish : D anyways got em mounted on my roof and wired in
  5. i am so glad i rev match on a daily basis hah. my clutch cable broke yesterday. luckily i only had to stop 3 times. id end up taking off from a stop light with the engine off in gear and starting it to go. worked fine. the dowel or whatever youd call it on the clutch pedal end of the cable broke off. so i took one of those 10guage wire crimps and saudered it to the cable with a washer behind it. now i just gotta adjust the cable to the right spot.
  6. this is true. so it is the heads that have the smallest runner.
  7. ya but that defeats the purpose of the whole anti coolant to intake air idea. plus i like trying to make stuff works so this will be fun for me : D. i completly agree on the price thing too blehhh
  8. ya i figured on that part. hmm..... idk ill redneck somthin together..
  9. thats a good thought... hmm..... idk... inline thermostats are more spendy than i thought. grrrrrr haha. i could take two of the thermostat housings and bolt em together back to back. thatd work.
  10. ive already considered the coolant passages. im going to plumb in some fittings. and just run a hose from one side to the other. ive read and heard that these intakes dont flow that well. plus the coolant runs through it meaning hotter air which is bad. and well what the hell why not. hah
  11. ok well first off i saved a weber from being scrapped : D FREE well instead of throwing it on the stock manifold i decided im gonna try to build a custom intake for ************z n gigglez. the picture i drew up on paint is what the layout is gonna be. im thinkn 1 1/2" metal conduit. i have the flanges made up for the heads. im just trying to get some more input b4 i move on. all is appreciated plz point out ne flaws you see. thanxs : D
  12. thats a load o wires. oh so i got the ide exhaust done and mounted. well i went wheeling and didnt take in how much the engine torques. so the exhaust bottom out on the frame rail and ripped an exhaust stud out of the drivers side head. grrrr :banghead:
  13. ;)well i got the bearing changed tuesday. yay... well i noticed the tire settles funny. like the top is toed towards the car. camber i think. i always get camber and caster confused. hah so the side exhaust mounted up good and solid. but since its on the drivers side the engine torques up on that side which in turn rotates the exhaust up and broke one of my flange bolts lmao so i literally need muffler bearings or somthin haha. maybe one of those burly flexible metal tubes would work too.
  14. my driver rear wheel bearing went all poo on me. so i pulled the rear hub. GRRRRRR and am workn on an exhaust to run down the drivers side. oh and i picked up a weber that was gonna be scrapped but i savededs it : >
  15. finished the 6 lug swap. drilled out the wheels. the 215 70s do rub sometimes. so more bashing and beating is to come. haha. mobs way gnarlier though. especially in the sand too. handles better with the wheel offset. i dig it lotsdeds. looks frickn shweet 2
  16. in the process of cutting my fenders to clear the bigger tires whoo! oh and 4 the record 225 70s rub on stock suspension.
  17. in the proceess of the 6 lug swap. got two wheels done. 15 x 7s. i just need to decide on tires. the wheels alone stick out an inch and 3/4 gonna look sick. shootn for 26 - 27.5. tallest i measured you can go without rubbing on the the inside of the fender where its pretty rigid. on the front that is. idk about the back it looks like itll be about the same of course ill be triming the fenders haha. Tire recommendations are very welcome thanxs : >
  18. lmao wow didnt expect that many replies. thank you all i appreciate it for real. ive got it figured out : D
  19. How would i go about wiring up a relay for my offroad lights to click over with my high beams. i want them to turn off and on with my high beams but its stumping me. ive been doing voltage checks and what not and have concluded theres a groound side switch blehhh.. help plz
  20. if it does i was gonna mod one to mount a carb on. will this mount up to my ea82 carb engine or is there some inconvenient coolant passage issue.
