if you can't laugh sometimes then life isn't worth living.

you should see some of the crap we dish out at work, lol...

 

Ewwww....thanks for a much unneeded visual...

 

Someone's trying to be like you! I think I helped Ben clean your housing, under his strict supervision of course

It's worth 10x's more now.

 

it was kinda over the top


Berry did all of the engine painting as well to your engine Nader, i masked it off and cleaned it up for reassembly.

 

Someone find me an intercooler core....24x8x2.5 or 24x8x2.75 googogogoogog. bar and plate !!!!!!!! ebay has nothing

 

No one can ever be like me!


Thank you, Berry, for playing a part in ressurecting my dirty little beast!

 

If you call Spearco and tell them what dimentions and style you want they will make you one. Or at least quote you a price.

 

P.S. I HIT 240,000 Miles last night!!!! YAY!

 

Jake...owner of the high mileage fd...forever you shall be known by that.

edit: spearco doesn't have a site...anyone wanna hook me up with some kinda site or something? I'm stuck at my moms and 56k+ slow pos computer X_X it's toture

How bout any of those Nick? Thought you might like that.

 

damn, how many motor did that FD went through??

 

FC>FD alsoooo...goddamnit asfdljk;aasd;j $500?!!?!??!! fuuuuckk that.

 

Damn, how many motors did that FD go through? ***

3 motors, two sets of turbos (in need of 3).

When I say three that means i'm on the third one now with 40k miles on it.

 

Save up cheap ***

 

I have the cash, but still....ebay special so much cheapa if only they had right core size.

 

Ebay's quality is **** compared to a Spearco core. It costs money to play Nick. I'm buying my core from the turbocalculator site. I'm just going to have to suck it up and fork over the money. But then again $500 doesn't sound bad seeing as I'm about to drop $3400 on my turbo kit.

actually if you could tell the quality of different cores in bar and plate i would give you a cookie. from a $100 core to a $500 core most of the quality is in the welding seams and endtanks which i have rarely seen even cheap ones fail with up to 20psi of pressure.


i know it's nice having name brand stuff but in reality you are just paying for the name on a lot of stuff, it's not a bad idea to try and save money where you can to get more and better upgrades later on.

don't beat up the kid too bad, i kinda pushed him in his current direction.

 

It's my fault, I turned Zach into a label *****

 

it's nice if you got the money but as we all know most of us seven owners can't chuck money at our cars without sacrificing something in the end.


right now i just wish i had the time to chuck at my car, it wouldn't even be recognizable under the hood.

 

Yea most of us usually want to CHUCK the car.

well anywho. ummm 17 days till I become a Sacramentian.

 

hahaha.... if i could throw money at my car like that, i'd have a 20b under every hood of every car i have... especially the trueno

 

Ben, you have a very good point about the quality of the cores. But the welds are something that I don't want to take a chance on. Plus I should be able to get a decent discount on the Spearco cores so it will work out for me in the end.

Zach

 

or if you have a tig or heli-arc welder it would be way cheaper to do it yourself, if i had them i would. wish my mig could weld thinner aluminum.

 

Ben come check out my dad's new welder that me spent a spearco core's worth on...it might be able to do it, but I dont know **** about welders..I'm not running a huge *** turbo like you will Zach :P so I dont need an insanely awesome intercooler...anything is better than my interheater I have. Oh I'm thinking of running alcohol or water injection...prolly watter since I already have to deal with puttting 2 stroke in my car...dont wanna have to worry about alcohol too...but then again its a little more power :P...if I do what J-rat did....550cc injector forcing it all in there hehe..Ben never works on his car since I'm always buggin him to work on mine ;p I'm actually going to take a shot at installing a few things myself :O huge shock I know haha..ebay would be my choice, but I wish someone would just make me a bar and platre intercooler the EXACT size I want hehe

 

you said he bought a mig, i already can say it likely wont work, if it does work then the welds still will not be satisfactory because only heli-arcs and tig can do precise aluminum welds on thin aluminum.

my welder is a mig and cost over $1k for the whole setup and i wouldn't even trust it to do that kind of job.

intercooler piping, maybe. IC cores, no.
