still need to change my oil, oil fuel and tranny filters

11/17/2009 1:16:25 PM

subie: repainted the trunk, reinforced the front bumper cover, installed hella 500's (for nighttime rally'n), ran cables to relocate the battery, changed the passenger front caliper which was dragging after the last rallyX, bled the brakes, started patching holes in the sides from removing the mouldings.
still need to wire the lights (decide if i am going to mount seperate switches or run them off of the high beam circuit), mount the battery box and make the connections permanent for the relocation, still want to mount side skirts and mudflaps.

4runner: got a new EGR Valve and installed it, still may need a throttle position sensor though. Also have to get some V6 calipers for the front brake upgrade.

acura: just put some spirited miles on it

11/18/2009 1:33:00 AM

Full exhaust, PCIII, and Ohlins springs and valves in forks on the R6.

On the 240, replaced rear main seal, replaced MAF, and replaced engine mounts.

11/20/2009 12:15:06 PM

Just ordered Plugs, Fuel Filter, Air Filter and a emblem to replace the one that fell off my key fob from Pelican Parts.

The dealer tried to charge me 127.00 for 6 spark plugs. I did buy a new intake boot from them though for $45.00 (old one ripped).

11/30/2009 11:34:41 AM

side skirts and mudflaps currently goin on the subie

11/30/2009 11:48:53 AM

Sideskirts? Why are you adding weight? It's a rally car, fuck the looks man. Mud flaps I understand... Actually no I don't.

I'm just kidding..

Got my Jamb Nuts. Had to special order a bag of 25 for $3.xx

11/30/2009 1:29:30 PM

Crown Vic: put in an LCD screen in the dash, connected to my iPod. Working on a console to hold the CD player and a CB down below.

^^I DO WHAT I WANT

12/1/2009 9:21:44 AM

Spark plugs, air filter, fuel filter, new intake boots (old ones ripped at the "accordian" expanders) and cleaned the Idle Control Valve. I'll change the oil later today. I pretty much did a Service II but didn't cost a grand.

I need to change the the thrust arms/bushings soon but it's not that bad yet.

12/6/2009 2:14:39 PM

miata: nothing

SRT-4: pulled rf caliper, went to install rebuild kit, kit was wrong size and f'd things up, got reman caliper, painted, installed, bled brakes.

dad's 328is: replaced remus catback w/ a custom flowmaster super40 setup.

Swapping in a 5spd with limited slip from my automatic
Putting in a built motor with new rods and pistons, port/polish/valve job head, other stuff
New ECU tune.
New sub box still being worked on.

12/6/2009 5:59:48 PM

re-relocated the battery, removed the battery box and got a red top optima and quick disconnect for the negative lead

12/6/2009 9:23:44 PM

just picked up an air filter, oil filter, and spark plugs from the lolvo stealership. just swapped the air filter. plugs after work.

12/7/2009 1:14:16 PM

rebuilt slave and master cylinder for transmission, adjusted clutch. Not having to guess where the clutch will release is a wonderful thing.

12/7/2009 6:41:34 PM

Superglued the window switch in the mx3. I can now roll up the passenger window from the driver's side switch, again.

12/8/2009 7:13:35 PM

just finished putting number plates on the doors of the rally car

12/9/2009 12:38:55 AM

I was about to put some Mr. Wulf stickers on each of the cars... but I can't bring myself to it...

















































...because I'd really like to find those static type (rather than the adhesive type) that I stick on the window from the inside of the car. The search continues.

12/9/2009 9:02:43 PM

put air in two of the tires

12/9/2009 9:24:08 PM

changed serpentine belt on S2000

sewed up a tear in the convertible top...gonna sew up another one tomorrow, then seal it with vinyl repair kit.

12/10/2009 11:42:55 PM

oil change for the durrkota yesterday

12/11/2009 1:03:03 AM

got some power steering back on the 240 thanks to some NASCAR surplus parts

picked up most of the parts needed for an oil cooler setup at the same time but won't install till Spring

12/11/2009 9:27:11 AM

finally got the Hella's wired , along with some additional circuits, including trunk lighting, rear fogs and changing of blown bulbs in the dash

missed the one behind the climate control

tires are coming soon!

12/14/2009 2:25:49 AM

gone through a set of rear tires in less than a month

12/14/2009 2:29:25 AM

removed the front bumper, grille, headlight mount assembly, brake master cylinder, heater, cowl, tailgate, front fenders, and who knows what else from the '66 C-10. It's pretty much stripped from the firewall forward now.

spent some quality time with a grinder/chisel/crowbar yesterday and today, removing welds where I initially tacked in (a few dozen tacks...and a few seams) some diamond plate into the bed (this was several years ago). I changed my mind and decided to put a wood bed back in it.

12/15/2009 11:22:20 PM

I farted in it so hard it felt like I had heated seats for a couple of minutes.

12/15/2009 11:25:08 PM

on the '66 truck:

pulled some more bodywork, grinded out some more welds on the diamond plate in the bed, welded a patch panel into a rusted fender, started sanding on the bed.

gotta get some more gas for the acetylene torch before we get all the diamond plate (and then old wood) out of the bed.

picked up a shipment of goodies (intake manifold, pair of weber 32/36 carbs, pair of air cleaners, carb linkage, timing set, fuel reg, gasket set, all the engine parts that my machinist doesn't need to do his thing, and probably some other stuff I'm forgetting.

You're being way to anal. It's just a sticker. You can remove it in 30 seconds as long as you put it on the glass.

12/17/2009 9:47:15 AM

Yeah. I know.

But I did get a nice metal NCSU plate frame and put it on the is250. Looks great.

12/17/2009 1:11:30 PM

bought some tires for the subie today

12/17/2009 10:38:07 PM

didn't do anything to the vehicles today, per se, but I did swap out the acetylene torch cylinders for some full bottles.

I'm thinking that I probably have the only Honda S2000 in town with a bottle of oxygen and a bottle of acetylene in the passenger floorboard, resting on the child seat.

12/17/2009 10:54:10 PM

New tires, updated nav system. Got a nice new scratch on the back bumper because some inconsiderate fuckstick hit it with a shopping cart or something. Gonna have to touch that up.

12/18/2009 10:32:56 AM

all the diamond plate is out of the bed of the '66

got most of the left side of the bed (outside panel) stripped to bare metal.

12/19/2009 1:26:16 AM

Changed my oil in the driveway, but left it on the ramps so that if it snowed the right amount, it would look like it was sitting on top.

12/19/2009 1:46:23 AM

dan got all the bolts attaching the bed removed...we can pick it up, but don't have anywhere good to put it without cleaning up a bunch of other stuff that's in the way.

i got pretty much all of the left side of the bed stripped to bare metal now, and dan got about 1/4 of the right side of the bed stripped.

My to-do maintenance / fix list keeps growing:
-Oil change
-Air filter change
-New starter, mine's dragging like crazy
-New battery, mine's 4 years old
-Replace at least 2 window motors (power windows ftl - give me manual ones)
-Replace front and rear wiper washer motors
-Figure out why so many things in the dash are smoking:
Turning on front wiper washer blows fuse every time and smokes from the signal stick
Turning the a/c system to "Vent" burns something behind the switch every time
-Need new shocks all around
-Rear springs straightening, almost horizontal

12/20/2009 1:03:46 PM

repaired exhaust leak, fixed trunk lock, fixing engine shrowd cover

12/20/2009 6:33:00 PM

drove the wheels off the 4runner

it's in dire need of a brake upgrade and i still have a hesitation to find on it

the acura needs a wheel bearing and a battery

so i'm down to driving the subie

which i don't mind at all

tires come in for it on wednesday

other than that, it's good to go for dd duties

12/20/2009 7:57:39 PM

oil change for the s2000 today.


Replaced the thermostat valve on the Integra, which had been original. And I apparently didn't fit the hosing smoothly enough when I bolted it back together b/c was leaking a bunch of coolant...

but I don't feel with dealing with that shit again right now

12/20/2009 9:27:58 PM

the durrkota got new front CV axles, new pads and rotors on the front, and a tire rotation today

[Edited on December 23, 2009 at 11:24 PM. Reason : next on the list is shocks. they are totally gone.]

[Edited on December 23, 2009 at 11:24 PM. Reason : CV axles were xmas present from my dad. maybe he'll get me shocks for my bday.]

12/23/2009 11:23:33 PM

hauled tires to baonest's house so we can put them on my rims tomorrow

12/23/2009 11:26:31 PM
