Ongoing Montana thread
where you at? i'll have some spare everything by this weekend. i'm in helena. you can call me. my number is 461-9374.
I am in GF. I think I got it under control....I might just jack one from Ransom. Thanks for the response though....I will def keep you in mind when I find some other crazy project to do.
On a side note.......Sean I was curious how you like those Tanabe springs......thinking about getting some for the rolla

Springs actually feel good man. A little on the rough side if you don't choose the right roads(down 8th N past 15th street it can get bad, especially by 9th st) but that is Great Falls for ya. They dropped the car great and the FC has a whole new look. I give them two thumps up and the car feels much tighter.
i have an odd rattle and squeak that sounds like its coming from my shifter/tranny area. i know for a fact that its not the notorious rattle that comes from some of t he short shifters. i took the shifter out thinkin it might be the spring inside there but its not. and i took a peek under the car and didnt really see anything loose or bad looking. anyone know something that could help?

Get used to it man. These cars rattle no matter what. Just wait til you get poly-U engine mounts.

Just got an Apexi' ACV-R boost controller over the fourm that I bought a few days ago. Thing looks complicated. Got the manual and install guides and all hardware with it. I keep getting more into the madness of the electronic control world. Ha Ha. Almost looking forward later in the future to go standalone. I know its a pain but it is also so much more worth it. Everything seems smoother and can mod more and get it tuned better. I hope I can get this boost controller in here soon. got a new BOV flange too gonna just block off the old one and get the new one welded closer to the throttle body. That should help alot with the little bit of back charge im getting. Damn weather just needs to makes up its mind....

Is one of the mounts for the tranny crossmember broken? Loose Bolt? Bellhousing tight? Snowy buildup on the driveline. Have you replaced the Pilot Shaft seal? How old is your driveline?
hey Matt,
A little compressor surge won't kill that turbo. Some factory cars run no blow off valve. Just a little tid bit to save you some cash if you haven't already installed the new one.

Im not sure if i told anyone else this besides matt but i sent out my interior parts(center facia, shifter surround, idiot cluster surround and speaker surround.) to a buy in canada that does carbon fiber wrappin. That was a long *** time ago. anyway he sent them back when he finished and they looked great but they started to peal.. so i emailed him and he said he would fix it. so.... 7 months later i still dont have my **** back and i cant get ahold of him. i filed a complaint with the canadian business bureau and finally after another month i heard back from him and he said he was shipping them out today
so hopefully ill be gettin them back soon, like within a couple weeks and the insided of my car wont look like complete ****. LESSON LEARNED!! DONT SEND EXPENSIVE CAR **** LIKE THAT TO CANADA!!
