FiveSeventyZee Posted January 4, 2013 Report Share Posted January 4, 2013 this video always sounded nice to me. it's a KA-e not de but probably won't make much of a difference. the eBay mufflers are cheap. I got mine for $33 shipped to my door. but watch the tip diameter....I ordered a 4" tip because it was $20 less than a 3.5" or 3" tip but the 4" tip just looked so effing rediculous on the back of such a small car I went with the flow master that was on my L18... edit: it's an eBay N1 replica muffler with the silencer removed. they're all over eBay and amazon Quote Link to comment

jovial_cynic Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 Also more body work here. Getting through all the bondo and latex paint the previous owner caked on my car, and taking it down to metal, fixing the rust holes, etc., etc. All day long. Sun up to sun down. Still not done. But the body is nearly prepped to primer and paint. Quote Link to comment

FireFighterZach Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 I bled the whole brakes system, found out I need a new master cylinder. Replace the leaking hose in my heater core, gets warm but the fan barely blows I worked on getting my tempature gauge working, got closer but still not working But on the all positive side.... Scrubbed the piss out of the windows, looks great Looked at underside of car, can't find a spec of rust, and the whole clutch system is newer! Quote Link to comment

Look at the voltage regulator. If you have some pretty gnarly windows, after you clean all the shit off them you can scrub them with 0000 steel wool. It will get all the hard to clean stuff off.
