Wifey has no clue what she wants to do. At this point I think she's gonna bank the $$ until she gets a real job, that merchandising stuff pays lousy unless you make up for it in volume, and right now she's not doing a huge volume. I really would like another D, that thing rode like a dream and you don't see too many out there. I'm glad I got this G, but there are times when I miss my old one and wish I kept it. It really was my baby; this car was someone else's baby, and as well as it was maintained, I keep having this feeling like I'm missing something because it just seems too good to be true how perfect this car is. Maybe I'm just crazy.

True, OEM 6G72> OEM 4G64; but Modified 4G64> Modified 6G72 or 6G74.

Much more aftermarket support and HP potential if you swap for DOHC on 4G64 and Turbo vs 6 Cyl IMO.
For example look at the HP some modded Evo's are putting out, mainly bcz of all the aftermarket parts available. Hard to do the same with limited support for the V6.

None, it stays in the garage. It keeps blowing sparkplugs under boost, i think i need to just replace to motor and start from fresh. But honestly i have no more motivation, plus with my wedding coming up i really dont want to spend alot of $$ on her, but i would love to get her fixed and drive it in the winter since the bmw rwd will be useless.

None, it stays in the garage. It keeps blowing sparkplugs under boost, i think i need to just replace to motor and start from fresh. But honestly i have no more motivation, plus with my wedding coming up i really dont want to spend alot of $$ on her, but i would love to get her fixed and drive it in the winter since the bmw rwd will be useless.

I know this is probably common sense. But I've read that blown out spark under WOT means your gap is probably set to .40 where it should be .28

I'd try that if you haven't.

Tint isn't always bad. Especially if the tails being tinted are using LEDs. My Pontiac for example...tinted pretty dark, yet...even in the bright of day, the LEDs shine through like it's not even tinted.

Well, I'm not sure with the Pontiac, since the tails I have were premade aftermarket units.

I'm pretty sure that if you make your own LED tails, use a housing with a clear lens (like the 8Gb USDM tails, or 3rd gen JDM tails) and the LED's light will shine better through tint.

I like tinted tails just as much as the next guy, but no matter what paint you use be it transparent or opaque, its still hinders the light output no matter what. So technically safety is still compromised on some certain level...

Def no denying they hinder the light ouput some what, as I noticed a restored brightness whem I removed my tint. Had no choice it was chipping off near the edge, and worsening when I washed the car. Now I'm back to stock, and actually liking it for the time being.

Boy, you guys will really be pissed once you see how my tinted aspires turned out....

Make no diff to me lol cause honestly first of all not my car, not my call. 2nd as long as even the slightest bit of the original lense color is visible still, I considered that "smoked". That's with the lights off, its gonna be red regardless with them on of course lol. Now when you can't see any red from the lense, that's when I consider it "blacked out" which imo would be no different than black spray paint and is definitely unsafe.

Not necessarily. There's a tastefully tinted tails, and overly tinted tails. From my understanding tinted tails was originally a "Euro" look, associated with high end cars, so I dont see how it would be considered a "ghetto mod".

RWD > FWD

More control, balance and efficently laying down the power.

Just sayin'

And with the lightweight chassis of a Teg, RWD and a V8, I bet it's a rocket. Hope the chassis is reinfornced to handle the torque.

Blue8g

10-13-2011, 01:10 PM

FWD = Lighter weight, less drivetrain losses, etc.

For a small, lightweight, low torque/high revving car...FWD is really quite good.

And lift off oversteer is cool too haha

But I'm also a HUGE fan of FWD Hondas.

From lexus pursuit yesterday. pics are slowly coming out. found this one with me and my friend in the staging lane for the drags. I basically drove as is with 3/4 tank and a filter, hit 8.8 in the 1/8th at 86mph. definitely possible 8.5 if i had meatier tires or some slicks but oh well. so sad to see not too many people know how to run the tree, they ran it like a street light.

Alfa day was interesting..... great weather, not too hot not too cool, no rain, lots of nice people and great cars, but the organization could have been much much much much better. Nothing like Cascade track days or PCA track days, but fun nonetheless, someone wrecked an ariel atom pretty good, but other than that was pretty safe day. I got to break in my new AMR coilovers and alignment and such, car rotates so perfectly now, trail braking will make it oversteer like a drift car haha, I actually went completely sideways in the first session first time through the chicane because I wasn't used to it yet, so different from my megans. I definitely need much better tires for next season. Went with Cobalt XR3's in the front, XR5s in the rear for my pads, truly fantastic, I can brake at the 150-200 mark safely on both straights. Pics will be up soon in another thread, there were a TON taken by a friend, he's just editing them now.

I know I've gotten the advice left and right to go low, but the rally cross look has grown on me quite a bit. Add the fact that nobody goes for this look...the unique factor is up there.

Rally cars are low for tarmac stages, they sit at a stock height for the gravel and snow/ice stages.

Low is popular, but not 100% practical. Especially with the bad habits I'm still trying to get Jess out of.

Ditch those ugly chrome wheels, you'll regret keeping them.

The chrome is going to peel, corrode and bubble up. Even worse, they corrode on the inner part of the lip, making them leak from the bead, and are a BITCH to repair correctly.

Find yourself a good used set of non chrome OEM 17"s, cheaper on tires, and ride even cushier!

8thLS6

10-28-2011, 01:41 AM

Thanks, its Duplicolor metal cast yellow..its more yellow in person but not like lemon yellow lol. I think in the picture it comes off a tad amberish. Couple notes though..the paint is hazy until completely dry than it becomes completely translucent...so light coats are key. No matter how thick u lay it on it will look hazy and dull until dry..I was forewarned from a tutorial on a vw forum. Also when u get the fogs off the car...u don't have to dissassemble them..use aluminum foil. Slide along side and behind the lenses, and then fold over the plastic shroud. Much quicker than taping.

It looks good in the picture imo but in person everything ties in better..again imo lol. I think it will be nicer if I can get my wheels done in a solid color..polish lips are too delicate for me lol...so I say powedercoat it all one color or get different solid color wheels all together when the $ presents itself.

that only happens when you get cheap wheels or never wash them. ive had used chrome wheels that worked great. never curb rashed them even though i hit the curb a few times. thats when you know you got great wheels. lol

24's look good enough and you still have good meat on the tires, 26's will not have as much tire to cushion the ride and help prevent bending the rim on potholes...

my mom found this out the hard way, she has 26" Giovannas on her h3, she hit a curb and it bent the rim a little. But she had an extra rim on the trunk, so me and my dad just replaced it with that one.
