• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

What did you do to your Car today?

dont forget under the dash and in the carpet. believe it or not i have 2 cars that had smokers in it and you would not believe were the ash goes. you think that it cant get behind that it does so you may be in for a big suprise when cleaning it but good luck

My car's previous owner was a smoker. While I've cleaned the visible area, I keep finding new places for ash to hide. When I took the radio apart to replace burned bulbs, the inside front had lots of ash and the dust guard for CD were mostly grey and black speckled. I think the CD player may be toast but haven't tried it yet. No matter how well anyone cleans, it'd never be 100% free of cigs ashes.
 
Parked it's next to a coworkers brand new 2013 Malibu. Had 90 miles on it this morning.

She needs washed bad. Going to fort Wayne tomorrow so maybe I'll splurge afterwards and run her thru a Mike's car wash.
 
I put the coolant res back on and everything after I took the pic... Pcm is held down with double sided tape for now...

i say this only to help you. If youre gonna wrap anything it should be the crossover. I wrapped mine over the heatshield..That DEI wrap is good **** but remeber it keeps heat in. so when that POS LS4 maf starts getting heatsoaked it wont return to normal as quickly. The coolant overflow can be placed in the passenger fender. and if you wana downsize you can use a gatorade bottle...regardless good work and what was the breather for? dont use it on our PCV system.

if you look where the battery should be youll notice something with a orange cap lol **** it its cheap and it functions, until i get off my ass and install the aluminum one i got somewhere
 


filled it up with gas...than raced some kid in an acura rsx ... i put a car length on him surprisingly ...could use a driver mod tho lol didnt know they were quick..

Swapped her outter tierods, put new rubber on her, gave her a tranny fluid change, with a special Lucas treat since she started slipping, even bought her 13 gallons of liquid gold. After all was done, drove her for 74 miles and now just gotta find a toggle switch to hook up to her fans and a new trunk lid since hers is rusting away :(. Also rolled up to 208k on her..still running strong..

K20, vtec, 6-spd , and 2800 lbs, yea they are surprisingly quick. Mid-low 15s stock.
 


Today took her out to the mall, some kid laughed at her rustic spots. I laughed at his ford. We raced down the highway, once she hit 50, we blew the doors off that kid. Stopped at the gas station and he gave me kudos then almost cried when itold him it was just the 3.1 non super charged motor and the only mod I did to it was swap out the 3100 upper intake for a 3400 upper.
