To compensate for this odd turn of environmentally-friendly behavior, I will be increasing my carbon footprint by pouring all my used oil into my neighbor's garden. We don't like each other - they may not mind driving over their horse's shit in the driveway, but I do - so this kills two birds with one stone.
5. Drive, drive drive! Don't walk or ride a bike, that is a waste of your energy. Whether you are going only one block or one mile, your SUV will get you there in style! I drive down the drive way just to check the mail.
4. Fart like there is no tomorrow! Sure it's methane, but every little bit helps. This makes the wife happy also and kids love it. 3. Use more energy! Not only does it keep the people who work in power plants employed, it also makes your home well lit and comfortable.
2. Grill out! There is nothing like an old fashioned Bar-B-Que with charcoal to get those mouths watering. Use real charcoal and lots of lighter fluid. Forget the propane. I use it to catch the neighbors grass on fire.
1. Burn a Tire! There is no mistaking the rich aroma and the thick black smoke of a tire on fire. Break out the marshmallows and make it a family event! When you are done just watch the fire truck try to put the damn thing out.
Exactly. Live for today. Your kids will figure out how to live in tomorrow!
World knowledge doubles itself every ten years or so, when we're dead in 40-50 years, they'll be able to find a solution for all this global warming shit. In the mean time, 5$ goes out to whoever writes me a DIY to drop a Ford F350 supercharged engine in my '03 SI.
hey clint, my downpipe is mocked up. my welder came in and made a nice downpipe with pie cuts. he's just gotta clean it up and weld it. I should be running monday or tuesday of next week. and FYI, if you need parts that you cant get right away, just paypal me the $$ and i'll get it for you locally and just ship it your way.

F*&^*KD&SKJ So I have the worst luck every offically. I have an 86 Nissan D21 Pickup in *Twinkie* Yellow (well it looks like a twinkie) thus this is why we call it the twinkie I use this beast with only 56,000 miles on it (yeah thats right!) as my daily driver when my car is down. I went to go pick it up at my buddies shop. I need to tear down my turbo kit to fix somethings again. Someone decided to smash the window out and remove my $80 dollar walmart cd player, and they weren't nice about getting it out. (and it just slide out, doh!) So end to a great day!
I got my oil pan back from the welder! Take a look...
Only problem I might have is the oil temp. See how the probe end doesn't hang out in the oil. It's surrounded by metal, only the tip touches. I'm worried about unaccurate temps. I tried 5 different 1/8 npt alum. ports and they all are like this. What do you guys think?? Advice?

i dunno man, maybe you could fill the pan up with hot water and hook it to a 12v source and a voltmeter, do some testing before you go through the hassle of bolting it up?
Just look at DSevenEM2s mini-mod thread on civic7.com. That's what I'm talking about.
FoSho, why didn't you just get a filter sandwich adapter and plug the sensor into that? Much cheaper and easier than welding a bung into your pan and you get a more accurate reading, can plug in a pressure sensor, your feed line, and still have an extra port. Honestly that sensor will probably read just fine though, if a little on the cool side. You'll be getting oil pan temps, vice block temps (like the adapter sandwich mount does) with that location.
Buds, mralbino, and others. I keep posting for those tails every 48 hours and have not found any others yet. The coupes are rare over here. I keep looking, don't worry.
Thanks Edwin, I will just do that from now on. Although I'm pissed that you'll be boosted (again) before I will be!
Off for a knee surgery consult and will stop to see my welder on the way back. I love military 4-day weekends!

There's a good chance that I'm not going to answer your PM.
Hey Foos... My car doesn't run all that good if you remember my thread about tuning issues... I'm only running 6psi and misfiring all over the place. So that combined with the UGLY engine bay and the weird rattle I can't seem to find, the random washing machine hose I have for my PCV, my shattered front lip holding on with a zip-tie, the front bumper paint damage, the now-light-grey Sparcos that used to be black, and the fact it smells like a gas station at idle... I think I'm losing the "cool" battle.
What once was a local head turner is now a steaming pile and all because I HAD to have a turbo.
Sorry to come in and complain on your thread here, but oh well... LOL
