<--- Slow-pra

I like the blacked out rims. I was also thinking of a gun metal color for mine since these brakes makes so much brake dust.

I see. opps, I thought it was the other. My bad. (puts tail between legs and walks away)

^^^ ;) Im not sure what STS uses for the oiling system. Yesterday I did a little more testing. Hooked back up the EBC and turned it up to max (2.0 bar higher boost) Well Boost built quicker, and had 10 lbs by 3300 or so and then fuel cut. <--- I figured it would hit it. So after I think I...

This weekend doesn't work for me. Im heading to the cities.

There was a group buy that Kevin had some time ago. IIRC it was $200? He might have another one again some day just keep an eye at the group buy section. ---------- Post added at 09:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:03 AM ---------- What you got to trade? I didn't know we...

Every one has some sort of first from comp turbo. IIRC this is now the 3rd time I have heard this, some thing is starting to smell like fish. Ummm.....Targa top in your rear seat, = fail with major scratches. You night as well not even carry it with now if it wont fit in the rear and just...

Dam that is pretty good. But MoTeC better be able to do that ;) Me Im still on the OEM TCCS till I have spare cash around to buy an engine management system. Oil = Redline 5W-30 If time comes It sounds like I will be using 880's from Wayne EDIT: On second thought, I should...

+1. They look like this with the interior removed and foam wrap around it to protect the finish during install ;)

Pressure is about 10-15 psi (guessing) going by the stock gauge. It is well off the bottom but a little under the 20 mark. But my idle speed is around 1000 RPM's some times a little more, to help these cams have some what of a manageable idle.

Thought I would share a pic of my oil pressure now with the new pump (7mm shim) and upgraded oiling system I took with my phone. In this pic I was at 2950-3000 RPM's, 5th gear, with oil temp at 190-195 ish. I think it should do the job :) O-ya I also found my downpipe and test pipe dose...

My rear intercooler runs off normal 120 like in the pic I posted. It is a "puller" fan, and I still want to get one of the front ones that runs off the usb as a "pusher". Cheap, ect. what ever, as long as the fans move air it is what you need to help out cool the electrical components.

Ya I would say out in Cali, Maintenance could average that, but it is just because the cost of living is so high. For instance Im guessing a new average house in average area is 300-350K+. Here there 150-175K. Trust me If I didn't buy/build my house at a young age I would have been long gone...

Cooling fans FTW Nyko also makes a wrap around intercooler .

Pouch Tec, & nope not better pay., I took a even larger pay cut!!!:: angry :: But work conditions are a lot better plus it's non-union. It will be a filler for now to get back into the "working" mode after taking the last year off.

Maybe it is your new engine builder ;)

I cant wait to hear the new exhaust. If any thing a rattle can of white and masking tape to paint the rust area's will help not make them not stick out as much. Wont match, but will match better the rust ;)

Forgot to add in why their cheap. I bet the average age of a mkIII owner = less then 20 and in high school / college

IIRC, going by "old school" cars/guys, they last 10-20K miles. So about once a year you should change them. Dont know if you have seen one of these before but service stations (gas stations) used to clean your plugs (for a small fee) for you when you filled up you tank get more life out of...
