  1. is it possible to take out the front cv axles with out the fluid leaking all over the place? im going to drift my car, but i dont want to mess up my tranny and was wondering if this is possible?
  2. ok so i have a race between me and a datsun(78) 510 this weekend and i need some tips or advice to how i can mod my engine a little bit more better to make it run faster. what would be a good suggestion? i was thinkin about getting some real high octane gas and adding some octane booster to it. what else do you think will be a good idea? -shift
  3. yes i finally got my car running!! woo hoo! it hauls rump roast just like it did before too. my problems were: 1. alternator went out had to replace it 4 times, untill i found out the spark plug wire was dbl grounding aginst this metal that held the ac compressor in place and hit the alternator and fried it. 2. then i got everything working and then i blew my fuel pump while running my car @ 16 volts lol. 3. bought a new fuel pump and voltage regulator and hooked everything back up, cranked the car for like 5 1 seconds and she sparked and ran! tested everthing, battery alternator and voltage reguator and all semed to be in good grounds. 4.battery was @ like 13.65 volts when running, and then the alternator was @ 13.25 and regulator was @ 12.25 i believe. but i am stil having this problem with my carb. ill be 3/4 of the way through my gas pedal and when i go to stopm on it, it wl spit and then lunge foward with force and i will take off. what could that be? dirty jets? or dirty carb?
  4. so how exactly did you make it look like that? you said you sanded it down, bondoed it and sprayed it with some crack resistant paint? im very interested on how you did that. and you covered it with some carpet?
  5. ok my car is toast here are the symptoms: blew up my alternator, and shorted out a wiring harness, also drained my battery. i took care of replacing my battery new alternator and new wiring harness. and now for the weird s h i t : after wiring all of it back up and making sure everything was good to go, i started my car and it took a few cranks t get it on, and it only was running for like 15 seconds. THEN i thought it was just trying to warm up, so i took it down the street and it sputtered and died when i stomped on the gas and tried to give it a run for the money. and it spuddered again and died. but it will start back up every time i start it. wtf is my problem? i have another carb that im thinking about putting in my car just to make sure its not the carb. i was also told to make sure when my car is running, the battery is clocked in @ about 14 volts and 12 when off. what about the alternator? what is it when running and not running?
  6. so im guessing that the 3.9 har more of a limit than the other 3.7??
  7. so basically it woult be better to go with a non turbo(weird one) that wouldnt have to be retro fitted on to my axles or what not??
  8. i saw a turbo brat motor for sale on ebay for only 650.00 and i am actually looking to get a 5 spd tranny in the near future but i am curious to find out if there is one that will fit onto that motor.
  9. that was what i want to do, either do that or swap a turbo brat motor into it. and sorry about that link thing
  10. got new tires for the subie! now its off to tha bayou to do some dirty work lol
