winter plans for your vehicle?

[efhondakid]

Body work and paint for the EF, I have a boost bug bite, so maybe a homemade kit. And putting the snow tires on the EG.

 

[jeffie7]

If I get most of the house stuff done (will never happen) I'd love to do something like this over the winter...

It'd match my paint =)

 

[K2e2vin]

My brakes are getting bigger over the winter too! Stoptechs also! Well, just rotors; My winter plans are: 282x28 rotor upgrade with 2-piston calipers, 15x8 wheels, rear discs, rear sway, and rear interior if I can find some. As of right now the Civic will probably sit because it's not really comfortable to drive(empty interior and leaking air duct) so I'm actually looking for a 92-93 Accord coupe before I do any of those.

I'm going to flush and refill the coolant in both cars, sit back, and relax. Texas winters aren't exactly rough.

 

[nootrac22]

trying to get the prelude back on the road. Have to bleed the clutch, fill with coolant and put the airbox/battery box back on. Once I get that done I can pull the upper controll arms off the accord and have new ball joints put in. Oh and rear rotors and pads on the accord.

Get some LS meshes and rock those this winter. Other than that, nothing. Ultimately if I can get a different car, my integra is going to get gutted, caged and ill finish the new engine. however if I cant find something i wanna buy, then it'll serve its purpose as the winter DD. which sucks.

 

[E_SolSi]

the del sol is getting:
brakes (pads, rotors, and fluid flush)
flush out the coolant
tranny fluid
put the new rear bumper on (i will miss my scuffed one with the bandaid on it )
new heater fan (this one finally died)
take the top apart and see if i can find a way of tightening and insulating it so the latching mechanism will stop all the fucking rattling
i think thats abut it

the mazda will get:
brakes (pads, rotors, fluid)
need to change the O2 sensor (have a CEL on for it)
replace the donut gasket at the cat (sounds like its leaking)

 

[MrXclusivE]

Planning a b16a2 swap in my 98 hatch. Also need to do upper (adjustable) + lower balljoints and tie rods, megan headers and ebay intake + velocity + k&n filter, and apexi ws2 for the b16. I think thats more than enough to keep me happy next season!

Then planning to build up my y7 block + y8 head I bought earlier, put it in a clean shell for my brother's first car

 

[Jeef]

Snow tires on the truck. Clutch master cylinder flush ( I think there is water in there). Look into doing something for some traction. Since I installed the new shocks out back I can break the tires loose a little easier. If I get another car, a garage, and a little $$$ hopefully my engine and t56 swap.

 

[teggyguy]

tein edc
brakes
and
some tires that work when it is cold.

 

[TurboMirage]

ummm

E4 mechanical AWD
built 1.5 turbo swap.

 

[newb]

My 'Maro is gettin a blacked out berger panel. Im workin on that right now. In the next month or so its gettin a Rossler stage 1 4L60E with a trans brake and a Yank 3k stall. After that Ill prally be gettin new drilled and sloted rotors with Hawk pads. Im still lookin for an LS6 manifold. Maybe some Strano springs. Wanna get my windows tinted. Thats prally about Ill be able to get accomplished during the winter, we'll see.

 

[DarkHand]

I may actually get the CRX running some time this winter, but I absolutely don't want to drive it in the snow/salt. I need another car!

 

[Korax]

Gotta get the rack put on the Accord, but that'll be just before winter hits (snowboarding yay!). I want to get my Civic engine swap finished, rear discs swapped (already have the parts) and bigger calipers/rotors, possible cage, and probably prep for paint before march.

 

[BigJ]

Ya know, after much thought, a good solid old 4runner or old 'yota pickup would be ideal as a project car during the year and winter vehicle.


hmm.

 

[gomezkun]

I was in Iraq last winter and my parent's were watching over it while i was gone (drove it to Oregon).

I plan on buying some chains and an emergency kit (the bag with the triangles,bandaids, blankets, etc)

If anyone has suggestions, let me know ^^

 

[Swap fan]

im buying a Subaru impreza for the utah snow. were supposed to get many feet of snow this winter.

 

[Justin66]

My mistress is going to hibernate for our cold, long, salty winter. All i need to do is get a oil change, hopefuly fix the ignition stuff and buy some stabil. Save up over the winter and get a couple more things. In spring cams will go in.

3000rpm stall ? Did you get a trailer ?

 

[newb]

3000 is small on an LS1. I have a buddy runnin a 4k in his DD F-body. Even in my big block truck I ran a 2400 for about a year, with a 35 mile round trip commute every day.
