That's it? Just 90$! That's a bargain around here.

Ha, ha!

I feel no pain for you my friend. I have had only one my entire driving career. (looks around, knocks on wood.)

Yes, it was for rolling through a stop sign. -__-

I just got an $80 photo radar ticket for 61 km\h in a 50km\h zone (38mph in a 31mph). At first I thought is was an award for driving that slow until I read the fine print.

Pops took away your privileges for that? Damn, sorry. I hope that it won't be a long grounding?

The first thing you need for a 3800 swap is a spare cradle. That is the only thing from your old drive line that you will reuse. Than make a "cradle stand" so you don't have to work on the floor. That way you can still drive the car and work on the 3800 swap. And your car will not be apart/down for a long time. When you take some thing apart, take pictures, alot of pictures. If the project gets away from you, when you come back you have a record.

OH, and stop for stop signs. When you drive a old car, you are intrusted with the care and protection of it.

cars with out a back seat are safer that cars with a back seat. Children in the back seat can cause accadents. Accadents in the back seat can cause children. Be safe.

Decided to Block off the EGR and clean the Upper Plenum. The code 32 was beginning to annoy.... and here's what I found...... eww




There was some kind of white stuff behind the blockage... it resembled white lithium grease.
Other than that the EGR system was actually in good shape.

I need a new throttle body gasket and upper plenum gaskets. Also, if anyone has or knows of the Upper intake plenum torque order that would be great.

Luckily, I have access to a 35,000 square foot shop and a class for an hour and a half where I can work on whatever I want.



These parts were oily and the upper plenum was all carbon filled, nothing a bath can't fix

Would anyone buy these boxes if i made them to sell?
Specs:
  • Mounting Depth of 8"
  • 1.36cubic feet of internal air volume
  • Good Legroom


Could mount any of the following:


  • 2-3 - 8" Subs (Sealed/Ported)
  • 1 - 10" (Ported)
  • 2 - 10" Subs (Sealed)
  • 1 - 12" Sub (Sealed/Ported)
  • 1 - 15" Sub (Shown Below)




Could you ballpark a price for a single 10" ported box, gray upholstered to match interior if possible.

Very interested in the future as a replacement for my 10" sealed box that I stuff in the passenger footwell.

Thinking I should go ported to get the most out of my Alpine Type R, though I'll need to look up and refresh my memory on volume specs.

I would likely order next spring or thereabout, since that's when the Fiero will be hitting the streets again.

Thanks in advance!
