    College Student First Car Build

    damnit. Got to your wiper before mine ): Installs have started again! I want to drive the car more and no AC is a no go. Got the slim fan installed. First it barely fit, so I need to move the IC piping a little bit. Basically forced it on the radiator, now I see why people do this off the car...

    College Student First Car Build

    Finally good news! Got the car back today with no check engine light on, but after a few miles it pops back on. P0171, so I need to hook up my gauges so I can see if its a vacuum leak. My semester is basically over so time for mods to start again!

    College Student First Car Build

    Thats about how hard I whacked some of the HLAs in with a flat head and a hammer lol they have to be perfectly lined up or they get stuck. Nothing a few swift blows from a hammer cant fix tho [emoji275] also had to smack the s*** outta the brakes for 323. They were rust welded to the rotors, the...

    College Student First Car Build

    The courage more or less came from Im not leaving this head for someone else to pick up and definitely not my tools lol I hid a few cheaper tools in the back of the car, ones that I paid a few $ for and wouldnt miss or can easily be replaced to lighten my load a little bit apparently that wasnt...

    Story time, so I get to pick n pull (later than I wanted of course) and get to work taking everything off the car. Car was banged up pretty bad so I was also navigating around bent metal in order to not cut myself. Eventually I just stood on top of the crash bar and bumper supports and s*** to...

    [DEFUNCT] The College-Budget P5

    Haha 323 has been tryna go wash cars for a minute but the sedan gets the work auto wash and nothing more. Crazy tho! I lived in Colorado Springs back in like 1998-2000. Of course I was 3-5 but still lmao

    More parts arriving, I got a Mishimoto catch can (had to for clout when I pull up to the meets), a new front strut bar (to powder coat and put the P5 one on the sedan) and a new exhaust manifold, however I think I want to save up and get a pope one to avoid cracking all together. Just waiting on...

    FMIC HELP and ENGINE REBUILD QUESTIONS

    I have a mishimoto z line (I believe. Ill have to look it up) with a generic eBay piping kit. As far as boost controller, idk whats better or worse. Theyre all probably about the same as long as youre above eBay quality. Are you going forged?

    Potentially might get those. Rear tires rub way worse. Might suck it up until I can just get wheels and tires and align them then.

    FMIC HELP and ENGINE REBUILD QUESTIONS

    Wanted to sub. But from what I've heard, definitely go forged before you make too much boost. Yes it is as simple as installing a boost controller before the wastegate. Lastly, save yourself from heat soak and pick up a FMIC kit. Definitely an easy upgrade to get a few extra horses. But if...
