My newest addition, 92 VR-4 419/1000. The car was wrecked on the passenger side so we picked the car up yesterday, got home last night around 10:30. I got the all the damaged crap off, pulled the frame and got the hood mounted. Today I finished putting the fender, bumper, headlight, corner lamp, and filler panel on. Should be white by end of the weekend.

In a related story, I'm planning on making the outline of a car buried in snow and put one of those giant delership bows on top of it, then on christmas, give my brother a fake key to the 'car' in the driveway

Blew my Differential in my 5spd =/

I was trying to fix a turning issue I was having with my car and the differential gears broke loose after a 2nd gear grab.  This was around 7:30 after I got out of work today.

Just finished putting the other tranny I had in my car.  Thank god I decided it was a good idea to have a spare around a few weeks ago. 


Anyway I took pics.


out with the old:



Not as pretty but in with the new:




Here's how the stage 2 clutch is holding up:

Wow...another Diff blown out???? This is wierd!

Yea no kidding.  I was reading matt's diff problem and was saying, lucky thats not me.  Knock on wood..

Ohh well, not exactly what I had planned this evening but I feel better now that it drives good again.


The weird thing is, I had a steering problem when I turn hard to the left.  It felt like I was losing traction or something sending my whole car a shock.  Then it would steer by itself somewhat at highway speeds.

I'm guessing the differential was on its way out and I just finished it off today trying to figure out my steering problem.


New tranny is in and I don't have a steering problem taking left turns anymore.  Weird..

two things, that poor poor bumper. why dont you buy the dolphin thats for sale right now? then again you may not since its fiberglass and if you did what you did to that lip you have now, it will all be for naught. man, oh, and why the hell dont the "JDM" flares come down to meet the "JDM" side skirts? that gap would bug the shit out of me.
