Thread: What did you do to your Car today?

as always . i'm a pack rat when it comes to car parts

so am i. i jank all the little parts i can and stock pile them for a rainy day. like today, got 3 fuel injectors and stored em just in case one shall fail one day.

good

finally burned off a layer or two of pirelli rubber

Ran 4 new brake lines on the 97 GrandPrix...from the ABS Module, to the left front, right front, left rear, and right rear.. She's Safety Inspection time now..

Tried to get a 240sx to race but he wouldn't.

I ended up replacing the rear window regulator and the assembly since the cables on my factory one's got snagged onto the motor. All good and can drive it without the window falling down.

currently installing my vette calipers....

changed oil, new battery, topped off fluids, etc,, hope its ready for the Minnesota winter

It still had the original battery from 9/02, but only tested 339 CCA

Didn't start it. Didn't even look at it.

Man I love lazy days.

checked my oil, 1 dot low, it can get lower lol

met a guy with a big boys chopper,(fvcking mean bike) then a guy with a 2012 vette pulled in and parked,(bright orange had 60 miles on it) then 6 or 7 old dodge cars drove by, then came back, the colors of the cars when parked looked like a open roll of life savers. there was 2 or 3 chargers a cuda, a duster, a challenger or 2, all very nice cars. 2 silver, 1 bright orange, 1 bright lime, 1 bright yellow, and so on. cool to see.

and i can't count how many bikes and old muscle cars and old rat rods were out cruising today. this was up skyline drive, by some dam.

all i could say was, well it is a GS and does have a super charger on it, the guy with the bike was like pop it open i got to see this, he goes look its all sideways and stuff, guy was killing me, he was 65 years old and riding a big ass chopper, all chromed out engine and trans, black fenders and tank, with red ghost flame job, so frigging clean. one cool guy too.

re-filled cooling system. made a huge mess. tried to figure out misfire. failed. it didn't finally throw the oxygen sensor code i've been waiting for though. seeing as how there aren't any oxygen sensors in it

The old biker dudes are the best to talk to though.

I still remember one night right after I got ym Stealth painted back in 04 I was at a gas station. The car looked nice anyway with the fresh paint, and everyone knows what the lights at a gas station does in enhancing looks anyway. So anyway, fresh paint, under the lights I fill up and run inside to pay and grab a drink. I walk back out to see this guy in his late 50's wearing his leathers just walking circles around the car. He sees me approaching and convo went something like this.

Biker: This yours?
Me: Yeah.
Biker: That things nice. What is it? One of those new Mustangs?\
Me: (shaking my head in disgust) No, its a Dodge Stealth.
Biker: What year is it?
Me: Its a 94.
Biker: No sh!t? I thought it was something brand new. I never saw anything like that before. I bet it sh!ts and gets.
Me: Thanks. Its alright

I've had many conversations like that about my Stealth.

Noticed tranny fluid all over the floor in my garage
