        i snuck my beater through emissions today. all the mods listed in my sig. came damn close to failing on NOx, but the other 2 things were pretty low.

          Are you talking to me? No I didnt grow out of the 420 I just was tired of talking to club members on AIM and them not knowing who I am.
          Plus I like Turboproto better than Proto420.

            got my vinyl today and got my car 'stuck up'

            got more if anybody wants them.. see the decals thread.


            finished tweaking my stereo... sounds great minus sub. not sure i really need it but i'm installing a sub anyway. just waiting for my Soundsteam Rubicon Angina to be delivered back to me. (it got wet.. boat + beer + sand bar + all summer = blown amp) probably leave the sub off most of the time.. but it's nice to have that BOOM when you want it.

            installed my new window sprocket.. no more POP POP POP!


            feeling generally good about the direction i'm taking with my Pro. this ride is a econo box luxury ride.

            also.. my S/R struts finally arrived today. still waiting on perches..

            later.

              nice looking decals! i'll take one, or two... hmm, maybe four? i'll let you know lol.

              anyway i got the front subframe/swaybar/LCA's installed on the EGTR today. went pretty smoothly. everything is powdercoated, so it looks great... but makes the empty/dirty engine bay look gross.

              oh and i found some guy to buy my VW beetle and some parts :D

                  pushed it outside so I could clean the garage. And I removed the springs from the struts for a member on here. Cost: $0! borrowed a spring compressor for free from checkers.
                  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.

                      My first step with my 94 Pro dx. My short ram came in today, through it on my baby as soon as I got it.

                        don't leave us hanging dood, what differences did you see in performance.
                        Also where do you live Daniel, high altitude, sea level, those factors make a difference in performance.

                          Today I replaced my oil return hose with a nice steel braided hose. The hose I had on there got kinked and wasnt letting all the oil return to the pan from my turbo.

                          And also I got her all washed up cause were going to wach some formula 1 cars rip through the streets of Long Beach!
