I loved the noise. My problem was it leaking from around the seal under the mount

So dumb question, where's everybody gonna auto-x this summer??? I've been watching videos the last couple of days after I read this thread that listed HERE. So I'd like to meet up with some of you guys and have a little FB auto-x day, keep me in the loop!

Quick update:
Got a lot done since my last post! First of all, I have the good summer wheels and tires on finally. Unfortunately upon remounting, one of the inner beads tore and a nice Minnesota pot hole took care of the rest, causing a bubble in the sidewall. Oh well, its an excuse to upgrade to 205s! http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot...74408646_n.jpg And I spent the entire weekend doing the biggest mods for the year, swapping the 4.78 Kia GSLSE hybrid rear end and the S4 N/A FC transmission. http://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-...84015015_n.jpg Swapping out the tail shafts/speedo gears. Gotta love the 4.78 rear gears and keeping a 3200rpm tach at 60mph. http://a3.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot...53447804_n.jpg Stupid open nonsense, never again! http://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-...16553920_n.jpg Sitting pretty after a long weekend of work! And today I got my new Star Specs! http://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-...03943348_n.jpg They'll be mounted Wednesday |
i had no idea kia gears would work what r they off of?

I just realized how long it has been since I've updated this. I'll get it up to date later on today.

Well over this season I mostly just drove the car. A lot. A few upgrades have been done but not much. The spoiler made its way on the car of course after some fresh paint. I finally got my full exhaust fabbed up as well. Full 2.5" stainless with the twin magnaflow mufflers. Still loud as nuts but its got a really nice tone. I also installed an MSD 6AL and 2-step module for fun. The flames are very entertaining. Not as entertaining as watching peoples faces when they see my empty dizzy. I still need to clean up my engine bay though, and move my battery one of these days.
Here are some pics from this season of fun. I love this car. http://imageshack.us/scaled/landing/...1008201428.jpg http://imageshack.us/scaled/landing/...1008201535.jpg http://imageshack.us/scaled/landing/...1008201346.jpg http://imageshack.us/scaled/landing/...0503221111.jpg http://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphoto...28232699_n.jpg http://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphoto...32571857_n.jpg http://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphoto...39323792_n.jpg http://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphoto...93068244_n.jpg http://www.mncandc.com/wp-content/up...awAZB_7148.jpg http://www.mncandc.com/wp-content/up...awAZB_7146.jpg |

Good part is I just bought a 2003 Ford Ranger for the winter. Which means, sad but true, I can park the 7 for quite a while to tackle big projects. Body work, paint job, turbo goodies, the works.

Hope your winter is going well so far. I picked up a Mustang in August so I didn't have to drive the 7 this year either and will be getting some work done on her in the next 4 months to hopefully have it running on the road by May. |
