haha, sorry i let it get to this point, you got one to spare? maybe a hood too =P
i'll get to it after the mechanical work is done, cause i need a new CV too, and clutch or maybe slave cylinder, not sure, maybe a g series tranny......she needs a lot of love
If only I had known. I tossed out a perfectly good one when I put on my JDM front. And you were probably in Edm at the time too.
I also tossed out a reasonably good tranny recently. You should ask me if you need things. I have a lot of spare parts at various times.
94' RS/GS/MS/CF Monster Turbo...coming soon.
93' GS SE, the Black Beast, the former love of my life...soon to be gutted and crushed.
94' GS, black on black, now in several small pieces...and one large crushed piece.
2007 Mazda3 GT Sport --- super fun
2004 Honda RC51 --- Lost forever to some theavin' bastard My Worklog My feedback thread Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.
so i finally got to my horribly clicking CV which also had a completely ripped boot that spewed grease everywhere that i wiped up, never took any pictures of that because it's just an axle replacement, nothing special.
so to make up for my shitty update i'll give you guys this picture, i just put them back on like 10 min ago, i forgot how much i loved how the carbon fiber eyelids look.

it's in the very first post where i called it a "modification" it was an idea i had and tried, and well....this is how it turned out
So the Water pump took a dump.
it still drives luckily so i was able to bring it home and for now it's gonna sit till i get the parts to fix it.
It's not a hard thing to fix and wouldn't take THAT much time to fix, but the huge drawback is that i don't have a heated garage, and i can't work in subzero temperatures well so i'll wait till it gets warmer.
i got lucky and my brother gave me his old car as he bought a shiny new STI.
so what that means is that i'll be able to put the much needed time and attention to the MX-3 and properly fix it up as it needs quite a bit of things other than the water pump.
So i had some fantastic weather today and it was nice and warm to the point where i didn't need any gloves to work on my car which is super awesome so i went out there and got to her.
i was able to take off the old water pump and timing belt and replace them with new ones along with gaskets, of course.
All i have left now is to put the crank pulley on the plate that covers the timing belt, which seems not to wedge in where it goes which doesn't make sense cause that's how i took it off, and then from there i just need to put on the new belts and fill up the coolant and run it through!
Totally miss the boost, the celica just doesn't cut it
i figured there wasn't much to take pictures of or it'd just kind of be a "how to change your water pump and timing belt" which i didn't feel like writing up =P
this is pretty much the only "amusing" thing (ignore the cat hair)
Pretty glad i got a new timing belt =D
