damn dude.. looks like your up shit creek without a paddle lol

haha i never used that one before

but yehh i have no f'in idea what the problem could be, that is some crazy ass junk what your car is doing in the videos

 

[Matts96HB]

Yeah man I have no idea at all.

On a good note.. won 85 at the casino tonight.

Thank god for the casino

 

[Matts96HB]

So I think I have the problem figured out. New battery going in today, checked all fuses and everything is good. Ran a couple more grounds for the motor, going to run two more 8 gauge grounds tonight, then I'll finish putting this ISH together. New gauges on the way, couldn't stand my old ones (they were free).

EDIT: Turbo mani will be here tuesday or wednesday at the latest, so when that gets here.. ITS ON!

 

[Matts96HB]

Fixed the problem with the wierd crap that was happening. Needed a new battery is all So now its back to the main focus: getting this fucker on the road! Parts going on like mad now! Pics later tonight.

Thanks man! Yah i know lol the intercooler hides pretty good thats what I was going for tho, i dont want people noticing it too much..

 

[philyphreak2127]

That will hide very well. I can't wait to see the finished product. I want an ek hatch so bad! I saw one for sale the other day and even though I have my civic I was debating on seeing how big of a loan I could get approved for to buy that car.

 

[cjvictoria]

Painting the ic was a great idea... I think if I boost on a car in the future I will keep that in mind. Rep for that.

Thanks man! And yeah I bought em last summer. I have been contemplating a change in wheels but the fact that I have tires with less than 3k on them makes me think otherwise lol

 

[philyphreak2127]

how do you guys like those tires? I have heard they are some of the best on the market. Kinda like the goodyear eagle f1's.

 

[awptickes]

Yes, please do tell.

I just had to replace my awesome uniroyal rainsports, and I got General Exclaims, and they aren't worth much. Now I'm looking for tires to put on the Z.


Nice looking bro. So, it was the grounds..... heh. I'll bow out now.
