Re: 5th Gear Missing! 92 1.8L GS

It sounds to me like someone put the transmission together wrong. If 5th worked perfectly until the tranny was worked on, but now doesn't, then you have established the time frame of the problem starting. I don't know if it's possible to put the individual gear in backwards (I've heard of people doi...

Re: what moter do i got and i need more power

Good answer from wytbishop! The quickie answer (which shouldn't keep you from reading that wiki page) is that there are two 1.8L engines that will fit in our car...the V-6 1.8L (K8) came stock in the GS model and is the smallest V-6 ever made. The 4cyl 1.8L (BP, or BP-T) is the engine you're looking...

Re: Mikals Mx3

I could very well be wrong here, but I expect that swapping everything over to that MX-3 body would result in you having to create a salvage title for your "new" car since the VIN would be different (unless the junkyard can supply the title with the body). Not that I'm against that, I thin...

Re: Winter tires

I just put on a set of Hankook iPike 409 tires, and they are incredible!

They are studable, but I opted for the non-studded ones, and I am amazed by the braking grip I get on snow and ice.

Re: Question about Windshield trim. Is it stock...?

I've had my windshield replaced also, and did not get any chrome as part of the replacement. I do remember that the OEM "windshield gasket" cost roughly $200 - $250 and an aftermarket gasket only cost $160 (both total prices with the glass included). It could be that your insurance company...

Re: Horrible Accident

I tried to watch the video, but had to stop after seeing the cars. After knowing that someone I "know" lost a family member, I couldn't see anymore of it.

I am truly sorry for your loss and offer you and your family my deepest condolences in this tragedy.

May I have one in dark blue with blue LEDs in the wheels? I like the lines, but I also know the headlights and tail lights will have to change before it goes into production. I expect there will be quite a few more changes also, so I'll wait until it's for sale before I really start drooling over it.

That 'horn' if the head and neck from a pink flamingo lawn ornament, just painted black. You could get your own from a lawn near you. :D

Shall we get a group buy going? :lol:

That is a pretty cool concept though, and would work really well for any coupe since the doors are longer than a sedan. I do like it.

To be serious though, what do we have to go with? Are there certain sponsors to appease? If so, what colors do we need to use to make them happy? If not, what colors would be preferred by the race team? Are there numbers to place? What number are you using? Does the team prefer strong lines, or a mo...

Check out the for sale section. FowlJesse has one for sale in NY for $1,000 OBO. There's a dent on the rear fender, but it looks like it's in much better shape than the one you're looking at. Also, the amount of $$ you'll put into fixing that crunched front end will be more than you'll spend on FJ's...

Try replacing the plugs and plug wires, you might not need a full tune-up kit if only one plug/wire is arcing. Then again, if your car is that dirty, and one plug/wire is arcing, a full tune-up is probably a great idea. I put two little round convex "blind spot" mirrors at the bottom outsi...
