I know man. I feel you. It's a little rough at times. It's the price for having such a sexy and pretty rare car.

XLR8 01-15-13 07:32 PM

Don't worry, you'll spend 20 times that.....easy.

powerhour 01-15-13 07:33 PM

Yeah its totally worth it! I just need to track down a primary pintle cap...:( no where has primary caps only secondary :( I've herd napa auto parts has them and also herd that some ford (ew) use the same caps

ZE Power MX6 01-15-13 07:33 PM

powerhour 01-15-13 08:01 PM

I saw mazdatrix sold the secondarys for 0.53 a piece but they dont have the primarys. Mazda told me to buy new injecters HAHA

caredden 01-15-13 09:21 PM

last month 500 dollars , This month so far 450 .. LOL concider yourself lucky . thats all you had to buY!

PFC is well worth the pain and the big hole in your wallet it will make

powerhour 01-15-13 10:38 PM

Yeah once I'm back working ill be getting a bunch of new toys..I'm pondering going single turbo but nothing to huge

jayscoobs 01-15-13 10:57 PM

Yeah prices seem to go higher and higher for our cars. You think 350 is bad, wait until you tackle doing the rear end. I need to do it soon and your easily going to be in the 500 range without the pillowballs, thats just bushings.

powerhour 01-15-13 11:14 PM

I know that's why I haven't done them yet but the clunk un the rear is driving me nurs lol. My wife makes fun of my car cuz of it

jayscoobs 01-15-13 11:52 PM

Lol mines not clunking yet but I am at 97k miles so their getting out of their service life.

ThekidintheFD 01-16-13 12:21 AM

At least you will have BRAND NEW parts to feel all good and fuzzy inside for.

powerhour 01-16-13 01:13 AM

Yeah I'm pumped as hell to get my new parts and just it back together. I wish I pulled my engine when I dI'd this so I could clean up and paint stuff!

Mrmatt3465 01-16-13 04:00 AM

Check out my build thread. I've spent almost $6k in parts for mine. Ive included the prices of all things I've purchased and titled my build thread an upkeep thread. :P

Flybye 01-16-13 08:34 AM

I'm surprised....are there not generic o-rings we can get? I mean we can not possibly had been the only car needing such a generic piece.

I was just about to post about injector rehab but you beat me to it. Great guys to work with and super easy transaction. Very reasonably priced and quality work, they even send a chart of before and after flow testing and to boot replace all parts including o-rings, pintle caps, and filters. Great great customer service and good turn around time.

I get however needing to have the goods "today" which is never fun on anyones wallet. :( But yeah, get used to spending your paychecks on your "baby" haha. First thing I learned when I bought mine was "Don't go into this with the broke ass FC owner mentality."

powerhour 01-16-13 10:24 AM

I found some that looked close but I didn't wany to chance any problems

ptrhahn 01-16-13 11:27 AM

The little stuff on this car can really cost. Not hard to walk out of the parts dept. with $300 is gaskets in o-rings, but the whole roof is $170.

SWAT81 01-16-13 01:06 PM

damn I can't remember the time I got the previlage to spend that little on a fix up for my FD. You have no idea how lucky you are lmao

powerhour 01-16-13 03:13 PM

Haha I guesss I cany complain considering I'm ony into my car for 2600 including the car haha

Davin 01-16-13 08:35 PM

I just purchased a new 20B thick center iron and dry sump front cover. Guess what those two parts ran me; $10k.

powerhour 01-16-13 08:39 PM

Holy crap....I would love to do a 20B swap but so much money
