    Today, I bought new PCV hoses, and installed my slim line fan. Only problem was when i started to loosen up the upper fan mounts, the whole upper bracket broke its weld joint. So i had to revert to temporarily using zip ties till i get the bracket re welded to the radiator. Fan was in and tested, and really works well so far. I installed the new PCV valve and hoses, and cleaned out my oil catch bottles. Should be good to go for w while.

      What I did to my BF....

      Looks like a motor/transmission mount is the culprit.

      Has anyone else had this problem??

      The axle slipped out down shifting from 3rd to 2nd, into a fuel stop, and the axel poped out of the wheel, it was a cold and frosty morning, the entrance also was a bump down, and thuds are common with this car since I've had it.

      I just thought it was the struts are bad.

      Comment and suggestions please.

        Dropped it back on the ground, moved it to level ground, topped off my oil, let it run for about 15 minutes, cleaned a bunch of crap out of it, and tinted my corners. Some pics:http://www.wihandyman.com/forum/show...9&postcount=64

          Dude, nice..... Are those 205/50-15s? Cool.

          I vote for a new intercooler! You gotta get rid of that stock one.

          Keep up the good work!

            on the GTX: Broke the driver's side window

            I did however do a fluid bleed/flush and installed some goodridge braided lines so now it stops. I got the FCON to act nice and the EVC to stay steady and it has to be the fastest 180K mile engine with a half-blown #3 in the world.

                  If it can make any sort of positive pressure, sure why not.

                    I hate the title of this thread. It always makes me thing g@y sh°t.
                    I live my life a quarter pounder at a time. And for those 500 calories or more, I'm free. I need FRIES! Two of them. The big ones. Oh, and I need them tonight. You're lucky the double shot of BBQ sauce didn't blow the seam on your nugget box. There she is, 2 pounds of pure beef. My dad ate it in 9.0 seconds flat. Check it out, it's like this. If I lose, winner takes my happy meal. But if I win, I take the burger and the toy. To some people, that's more important.

                              Purchased a S-10 chin spoiler, and a set of late '80s MR2 seats. What a pain! But they are blue and solidly mounted, and way better than stock. I'll post some pics soon.

                              I need non asa strut mounts, front brake calipers, and two engine mounts. then this little monster will be drivable.

                                Not today but this week I trashed my #4 rod bearing. Pulled the engine, it was my first time ever pulling an engine, wasn't that bad. Engine is stripped and just chilling in the garage floor while I save up money for a new engine to put everything on.
