Official Car modding thread.

Recommended Posts

Turbo car thread was full of pictures of random cars, and I am sure the "what do you drive" thread doesn't need our back and fourth posting of our mods and suggestions.

 

So this is open to just any one on 12oz that works on their car or on other cars, builds motors, turbo, supercharged, all motor, all that stuff. No hate on makes or models.. just on poor decisions.

 

do not post pics of cars from magazines. if we wanted to see that i would go to the magazine stand and flip through that shit.

I had a turbo integra that made 267 hp and 244 tq. LS T3/T4 57 trim .63AR, 550 cc injectors, 3 inch exhaust, front mount, 13.5 psi. LS motor with 44k.

 

Ill see if I can dig up a complete list.

 

You were running 13.5psi on a stock LS longblock? And it lasted?

 

I've had a few cars in the past.. favorite was a '04 Jetta GLI, T3/T4 57trim .63a/r, Walbro 255/440cc injectors, Tial 38mm, custom log style manifold, Eurojet FMIC, 3" downpipe with open dump.

 

Right now I have a LS Integra with bolt-on's and spray.

I just got back from this dude's house where I got my rear fenders rolled by him. $50 for both is not a bad deal. Its actually super easy, he has a professional fender rolling tool. I didn't bother snapping any pics, sorry. Now I can fit just about any wheel combo/tire size back there. Could have been done by me and a helper with a baseball bat or metal pipe, but Im not about half-assing anything, even though it can still be done that way if you're careful as shit. Cool ass dude. Does drifting and drives an S14. We're going to keep in touch and I think I am going to get involved in it. Im going to need another pair of rear wheels for the events and definitely going to need to replace my VLSD with a clutch type LSD. He has an OS Giken 1.5 way and it was very tolerable on the street. Only problem is the OS Giken diffs are super expensive and are not marketed in the US. I'll probably get a Kaaz or Quaife.

Hell yeah, car ran like a top for 2 and half years. Daily driven, 7 days a week rain and all. I recently sold the car and the new owner's friend blew the motor somehow. Under my ownership the car never even burn oil. I was tuned on crome.

I'm currently looking for a 64-7 or 69' Nova. Almost bought a Chevy II from some putz on craigslist, but he changed his mind and upped the price. whichever nova i end up getting, im gonna spray it "Rally Green". Always wanted to get a Nova Wagon too, drop a blower in it. maybe someday. Maybe when the economys better i can go back to painting cars.

About 2 months ago I bought a 98 Jeep Cherokee lifted 4.5 inches sitting on 33's. Not much has been done to it besides that. Front/rear bumpers, hella lights, steel rear quarter panels, dual steering stabilizers, skid plate, cherry bomb exhaust. all done by the guy i bought it from.

 

I'm working on wiring up the Hellas, I've never one anything wiring related before so Im learning a lot. I plan on putting a cold air intake, hood vents(not a scoop),eventually lockers (looking like lockrites right now, detroits cost a grip), another auxiliary cooling fan, and a flowmaster 40. Anyone know how good thats going to sound on an I6? Anyone fuck with cherokees or wranglers?
