Ok folks, I'm doing lots of stuff to my car lately and taking lots of pictures so I thought I'd put up a cheesey site for your viewing pleasure. Please do not pick/flame me because of the worksmanship I have. I am not up to par with you real mechanics, like Don, Matthel, MardiGras, etc. I will be replacing my clutch, brake pads, and suspension. Enjoy the first taste. Lots more to come.

you really need new tires

 

Yes, yes, I know, My 15's will be going on temporarily. They have a bit more tread on them. What do you guys think so far?

 

Stupid geocities doesn't let you have any bandwith. Sorry if you are getting the page is unavailable thing.

 

Doesnt take long here. People all hit the site at once then kill it. You might wanna try somewhere else to try to find another hosting place.

Man, there's a few things I've never seen before:

1) Rust under a Maxima (I guess from all the snow/salt?)

2) Snow shovels (winters get a brisk 35-40 f here in Houston).

Don

 

Yup, they just randomly salt the roads around here in the winter, even if there's no snow on the ground.

 

Thats a pretty cool thing your doing, documenting it and all. One comment though, you commented on how you removed the spring from the car with out a spring compressor. I have never heard of anyone taking the spring/shocks off the car "with a spring compressor" . Just unbolt everything and take them off Good luck on the rest of teh job, I hope everything works out.

 

Fixed that so I don't look too much like a tool. Thanks Emax!

 

lookin good i hope all goes well for you

 

So I guess this means the cash is flowing again???

 

mike is doing a 5spd swap


oh mike you had a jack under there? i thought that was your stock wheel height..

 

ok. maybe I'm crazy, but Mike's GXE was a 5 speed last time I checked.

that said, HI, MIKEYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!! We miss you!

 

No Deezo, I'm shamed to admit but Daddy's credit card is what's flowing right now. Still have no job, and my car is falling apart, so that means I have lot's of time to fix it.

Sprint, honestly, there wasn't much of a difference. I have my AGX's so I'm just gonna order some springs. No more 4x4'ing for me.

Lime, I miss all you guys too!!

 

I can't believe its so tough out there. I sure as hell have tons of work to do here at Fidelity.

 

i told you to move to CT..

MA/NY/NJ/PA/NH/RI/ME they all suck

 

I'm not a real mechanic. I'm just very determined geek with cheep tools and a two car garage!!!

 

no.. you have earned the real mechanic title now..

 

Yeah, when you start doing engine swaps, you become a recieve the "Real Mechanic" title.

 

yes they do.

 

Mike, what are you doing tomorrow night? I don't have anything to do and if your going to work on the car, I could probably stop through to help. I'll bring some tools too. Do you still have my cell number?

 

Dana, I don't have your cell#, I must have deleted that PM. If you could PM it again that would be awesome. I havn't decided if I'm actually going to work on the car tommorow night, because, hey it's friday night. But if I do decide to work on it, the Tranny will be coming out, unfortunately I don't have the new clutch to put in yet.

Oh yeah the site is updated a little bit. I added pics of the Axle removal.

 

Paint those calipers and take that rust off that nasty looking tail pipe.

 

I'll only paint them silver, if I actually ever do. Colors look a bit too ricey for me. Bah, the tailpipe! Who cares what the car looks like, as long as it runs and runs fast, I'm happy.

 

the 5-speed conversion looks hard

 

Yeah, and I'm not even doing a 5-speed conversion. Just replacing the clutch, and a few other things along the way.

 

I'll send it to you soon.

 

hey everyone, if all goes well you might see me cruisin at the pike with jon this spring. ive got a few little thing left to do, and im still probably getting a Z , hope to see you all there
