tune postponed, had to buy
06 STI TMIC
Hood scoop to tmic air splitter/rubber seal
gimmspeed 3-port boost solenoid
1 step colder plugs
hankook v12 evo 225/45/17 (up from 215)
don't buy ebay crap, the massive ebay intercooler cools worth a shit and fits like crap and keeps hitting my firewall, since the oem sti tmic has a rubber seal around it all the air actually gets forced through instead of just hitting it and going around. I also have a water spray kit to help out the new tmic
buy right buy once etc
still got your old intercooler fag?
yes, pay for shipping and it's yours
omg I love you I wanna stick it in your butt so hard
but really figure shipping and whatever and I'll pay shipping and some on top for your "Too-shitty-for-a-wrx-wagon-but-perfect-for-a-civic-wagon" intercoolar
would make a good frontmount or whatever, heres a comparison to blasters old 240

it sucks for me because its a topmount and topmounts need to be sealed to the hoodscoop to be effective, it also heatsoaks since the tanks are so hueg
but for a frontmount it should be fine, also 2.5l=/=1.6l i guess
I'll probably make it a side mount, or mount if off to the left of my motor pretty close to the intake and make some stupid hood scoop on the side of my hood.
Yours is a boxer too, I can't imagine getting any heatsoak hardly off my valve cover or some the side of my head. Nothing like you do on top of your boxer at least
but fuck you dat noise
or you can buy me portal2
Bro.
Brooooooo.
BROOOOOOOOOO.
What if
no listen, seriously
what if
WHAYT IF I BUY US BOTH
A BUNCH OF FUCKING WEED
no wait
I MEANT PORTAL 2
AND THEN WE CAN FUCKING SMOKE
I MEAN PLAY PORTAL 2
TOGETHER
WHILE WE BOTH HAVE TMICs AND TURBO STATION WAGONS
WE CAN BE LIKE BRO BROOOOOS
i also have a td04 turbo but it needs coolant lines
[editline]26th April 2011[/editline]
but you already have like 8 of those
[editline]26th April 2011[/editline]
you will also need a bov but you can get ebay ones for like 20$ or an oem wrx one for about the same price
Yeah, I've got two T25s. I still need to rebuild the one, but I'm laaazy. Also my manifold and adapter fit the t25. and I need to buy a sandwich plate and oil lines still. and put a drain in my oil pan. then I'll boost it and not give a fuck for a while until my motor swap is ready
oh yeah ffuuu I forgot about a BOV.
but edberg that compressor surge and dem disposable tarbos
cheap oem stuff is good though. I don't want to break my one good turbo.
i dunno if the oem one will work right though
maybe a cheap adjustable ebay one?
probably for a while, I'm going to need a huge one eventually, so I'll buy a 44 or 50mm tial when the time comes.
The Wrx oem one can hold up to ~22psi, more if you do the crush mod
Find one in a junkyard?
So yeah, you know how 240's aren't 240's unless they have shitty wiring and/or break down ever couple weeks?
My new one just did it. I was driving home with a friend and all of a sudden the car just sputters and dies. I crank it again and it just cranks, no fire. So I get out, and listen for the fuel pump, nothing.
Push to friends house, go back to my house, grab extra walbro, come back, install it, still nothing. my friends dad gets home, looks at it, finds that my fuel pump toggle switch had a loose connector, he fixed it, flipped it, went to flip it back, shit was hot. previous owner wired this little switch straight to the battery, no fuse, nothing.
got that all fixed though. I'm thinking about having my friends dad (a mechanic) help me redo the entire chassis harness with some baller ass switch panel where my HVAC and radio should be
Heh.
Speaking of shit breaking, my friend Justing has an EK sedan that he tries to work on and wants to make into a good car.
I told him to sell it and get something else because it is the absolute WORST platform he could get, an EK sedan automatic. 4 doors? Yuck! Auto garbage? Yuck!

It's all stock except that it has an AEM fuel rail. It had a Skunk 2 intake (see pic) but he couldn't figure out why it was running stupid (vacuum leaks out the ass, it had the holes for the 92-95 sensors, he got the WRONG intake) so I made him take it off.
...problem is he doesn't know how to work on his own shit. Sigh. So it's all fucked up and he's bitching at me over text. I really don't give a fuck. Usually I'll try to help people out, but when you want to get bitchy about it I will pass.
I hate dealing with assholes.
Also, I realise a 240 is a money pit now and think I'll just grab another beater Civic.
Thinking about getting this thing:

And dolling it up while I DD beat my hatch.

apoc mount tmic like that^
[editline]27th April 2011[/editline]
but upsidedown so the charge pipes go up or something
I had to flip that IC upside down and trim the bumper frame to fit the new manifold I got without having to redo all of the piping. It worked though.
That is the smallest front mount intercooler I think I have ever seen.
I saw a Civic like that yesterday, except it was lowered, had nice rims, a nice paint job, and a big spoiler. Nothing you can do will make it not a 4 door civic. :v:
going to bleed meh brake lines
then maybe clean the discs or something, i dont really know.
Doing something to my brakes.

Nothing wrong with a 4 door civic, except... what spoiler what? I hate people who put wings on cars. That's ridiculous.
I've actually wanted a 4 door EF for a while but they are hard to find not beat to shit.

How much intercooler do you really need for .50 trim T3 at 5PSI?
I've been degreasing and washing 8 rims now and 4 of them were extremely horrible and took a loooong time.
4 summer rims for the volvo which weren't that bad since I did this last year too and 4 winter rims for the jeep which seems like they've never been washed on the inside before
3 hours ago
come on dad i want to fix my fucking car stop shooting squirrels or whatever you are doing
I need to fix my front disks. They're out of round but I don't know how bad, and I don't have any money right now to fix them. :\
I've just changed the driving lights on the Jeep :buddy:
from these small blue ones:

to these that fit the car shape more since they're not curved and they're blank:
