jdmfreak's A NEW BEGINNING (BUILD THREAD)

[jdmfreak]

Ooh I like that thought lol I just figured they would be more expensive (don't know why) I'll price them out thanks for the heads up
(edit) it's in my price excel sheet as being more expensive maybe I'm looking at the wrong ones)

No problem. On ebay, the coils are under $100 for a set of 8. They are used, but honestly those coils are pretty reliable. Plus, you have 2 extras! I'm not cheap, but I don't believe in needlessly spending money if I don't have to. I haven't heard of anyone having a problem with LS coils up to 4 digit power levels either.

 

[jdmfreak]

Perfect

 

[jdmfreak]

And with that.......
It has begun

 

[jdmfreak]

Got the ecu and harness completely out last night as well

 

[jdmfreak]

Well it never got over freezing today so after work I put 6mil black plastic up on the shop to try and keep some of the cold out now just need propane for the heater so I can wrench without freezing to deatg

Props to you man. I despise wrenching in cold weather. Done my fair share but if I didnt have access to a heated shop I wouldnt get much done over the winter. Nothing worse than a wrench slipping and busting knuckles on a frozen hand! Good luck man

 

[jdmfreak]

haha thanks it sucks but the time of year i want to be wrenching is the same week that its dry and warm enough to drive with the targa off lolol

 

[jdmfreak]

pyro do you have a link to the ls2 coils for under 100 ??? i am having trouble finding any

 

[Pyro15D]

I think the auction expired. I just looked and couldn't find it.

Signature changed to make Bird happy.

make sure you get legit gm coils, its been rumored the china ones can break down and trigger early, causing advanced timing. I'd even buy two of them from you.

So are those the correct ones if so I'll buy now

Yes, they even look legit gm coils. You can tell by the epoxy on the top, its uniform.You'll need plugs tho. I bought mine and they came with the plug. You can run plug wires, or hit uauto zone for the cp059 boot and run cop.

Ordered dm power steering pressure line, na-t oil line kit for a t series turbo and ls2 coils

LSx is there anything you can't do

 

[jdmfreak]

LS2 is there anything you can't do

Fixxed it so it rhymes


Sometimes I dislike being responsible ie:have enough money for injectors after bills but waiting to make sure that nothing will come up right after I buy them that needs to be paid for
Did the same thing last month and stuff came up


2 jobs aren't enough for my budget so I grabbed a 3rd last weekend start this weekend

 

[Faye]

I still have to come up there with the truck and buy those parts off of you........ That should help!!! Hopefully I will be needing them soon, as my Supra is going to the frame straightener's today.... Hopefully I get good news!!
Also, I have a couple of heaters that I used to keep me warm when I was working out of a storage unit. They aren't amazing, but they would help.... I will bring them up with me next time I come to visit
