I just moved here a month ago and I'm having trouble with my teggy.
ie. engine check light (it comes on then when i restart it goes away) minor body work and whole paint job.
Cost isnt the major issue but the quality of the WORK is MAJOR!
I will give my arm (not really) for a QUALITY work... ;)...
PM sent. Hope you still got that! i also wanted toda camshafts and gears but since i dont have money right now i will have to wait :( hope you will still have it on April also its 76543 forgot to add zipcode on my pm
i picked up my beauty (LS)after my first deployment to Iraq for $3.5k all stock with 70k on the engine. I didn't know I was getting jacked because I was new and retarded of course but can't change the past:(.
After much time and money on my car and being called "retard", "n00b" and "gtfo"...
since i have ls tranny i can just swap out the 5th gear without buying a new one then :D
thanks guys, and 1 more question..
is there anything else i should add this is totally going to be DD and nothing else.
I'm neither looking for high hp nor have wanted hp its for fun...
that being said...
well, i came across a deal from a friend of mine selling a b16 tranny for 550 and thought it is a great deal but then again i was kinda skeptic about high rpm.. however, i live in nyc so there is really no need for me to take a highway even if i decide to get away from the city i can just steal...
Hey,
I'm doing a virgin build at the moment right now. And as I was talking to one of the shop owner he said I should get B16 tranny if Im not going for turbo and frankly I dont know if that 4500~5500rpm @ 80mph will do me any good.
I'm not looking for high hp, this is just for fun and for DD...
oh im terriblely sorry..
i brought my car there because i had engine check light on and it just felt very.. "weird" no power when i first did my ls/vtec (and i guess that answers another question.. i did LS/VTEC)
i currently have B18 block and B16 head on. I do not have any leaks at the moment...
ok today i went to the shop and found out a few distrubing news...
1. my exhaust is leaking.. btwn the header and cat.. (due to the shape of my header)
2. my engine compression is 150/150/150/140
as far as i kno it should be btwn 180 and 200 to be consider a good (not tired) engine and it has...
hey,
is there any good tuners//machine shops around dallas/austin/san antonio?
the reason why im asking is that i took my car to my neighborhood and they kinda fuk up my car.. (did ls/vtec and oil leaked since day1 :mad:.. and they r trying to fix it for a week now:eek:) im looking to do P&P and...
thx and you mentioned
good cams..
i understand that cams need to be good in order to go "faster" but im in a dilema because i kno any brand stage 2 cams r good for speeding and such but is it suited for daily driving?
i was thinking more towards stage 1 camshafts.. but i dont know if its going...
Well, I wasnt going to spend $2000 at once.. i cant do that not with the job that i have right now neways. I can spend 300~400 here and there.
i was thinking more towards like camshafts and camgears and etc etc
how u doing fellas..
i just did ls/vtec on my 99 ls teggy.. and put header and manifold on it
im loving it so far i can feel the increase of "power" ;) and vtec... :cool:
