323 you just cross posted in 3 different threads, that is not allowed lol

STFU i happen to like it. LOL

 

[xDJ DUBx]

Nah, DG grille is saying cf, it goes with the headlights.

I'm eventually gonna do my rims, I just don't know when.

 

[big Lou]

Dub you should be able to pass emissions on the ssafc. I did with mine hooked up as long as you don't have a cel and yes the obd2 will connect and read everything just fine!

 

[neox.286]

WOW dude! where'd you get that LSD lense for your camera from!??? (hippy)
craaaaaaaaaazy maaaaaaan

 

[xDJ DUBx]

Oh yeah, picked up my oil pan...

This weekend the oil pan gets installed and the crash bar gets cut and welded to mount the fmic

 

[neox.286]

why are you going to install the oil pan when the turbo isn't in?

 

[xDJ DUBx]

So I can start the car when the turbo gets installed, I'm too impatient to add a guaranteed day because of the gasket having to dry so I'm doing it a week prior. lol.

 

[Falango]

Dub if you are leaving the DG grill CF, you should paint the sides of your CF hood white. It'll look awesome! If you wanna see it shopped, shoot me some pics with the CF hood on the car.

nonono, don't use rtv on the oil pan...autozone sells a felpro cork gasket for the oil pan, use that...it's the windage tray that -needs- rtv

Ah, come on, are you serious? Is the fel pro a real gasket? Not a gasket maker?

 

[Protege03ak46]

who welded that bung?

 

[xDJ DUBx]

Local shop, why?

 

[Protege03ak46]

nothing, it just looks like they coulda done a better job thats all. but im not seeing it in person, so idk

 

[xDJ DUBx]

Looks like a good seal, its just dirty and sloppy looking.

 

[Protege03ak46]

ya, thats what worry's me. sloppy welds lead to sloppy seals. it might break faster. but what do i know.

 

[neox.286]

yes, fel pro is a gasket company like cometic...cometic also makes a cork oil pan gasket if you aren't a fan of fel pro (I know there are a lot of peeps who don't like fel pro)...rtv is messy, a pain to get to seal right if you aren't working with a lift and have the engine inside the car, and a hassel if you ever need to take the pan off again...just use a cork gasket, WAY easier (band)

I like it with the cf hood greg. Sorry bro. But the white hood and the cf grille looks weird. Looks like ur car gots lips. When is the turbo going to be installed? Your always posting pics of parts.

 

[xDJ DUBx]

The carbon fiber hood has came and past, time to move on. (evil)

Raj, do you know how expensive and complicated it is to put a turbo kit together my man? Didn't think so. lol. Turbo is going in on the 17th.

 

[BadBandar]

Nah i dont know the how expensive. I just cut all that and bought a turbo protege. hehe I wish i had the knowledge to go from scratch. Big props to you greg.

 

[neox.286]

he gets most of his knowledge from us =P
