Re: Rebuilding my stolen DC
Oh god, that movie gave me the motivation to put those damn taillights on my eclipse. I did however paint my panels because the kid before me painted them blue to match the car. I went back to black. I see those damn wings on everything now too. I do like the black corner lights though. They stand out awesome on a black car. I got a pair a year ago but decided to get the full amber. I decided to shave my trunk though and let someone else do the Evo wing convert. I need to get the rest of my components for the turbo.
Oh, what kind of cam seal did you go with Chris? I know the B series stock cam seals leak relatively quickly and I swapped mine for an aluminum. I'm going to be ordering a tune-up kit from Password JDM because I want the oil pan baffle, tranny mag. bolt and new shift linkage bushings. It also comes with a mag. bolt for your oil pan and a cam seal, I already have these and I'll just give em to you no prob. Besides, I'm saving money getting this package rather than buying all the stuff I want separate. Let me know You don't happen to need hatch struts do you? I'll throw those in too.

Re: Rebuilding my stolen DC
Bluesiff, Im not sure of the brand cam seal I'm using but it's an aftermarket aluminum as I've heard and seen the older oem design leaks... I have hatch struts but I don't have a mag oil plug. Had one on my last setup but that's all I need to say haha. I'm not sure if it would even be worth shipping that one item but I'd def be interested. Do you by any chance have an intake air temp sensor or a crank position sensor? Those are two big things I need right now...
Update for everyone else: I got my car to my house but am still in the process of moving the rest of my garage... There is definitely more room but it will be slow untill I finish remodeling the house...

Air Temp sensor and crank position eh. Let me see what I have. I believe I do have a crank sensor laying around but I did give a buddy an extra air temp sensor.

Re: Rebuilding my stolen DC
Thanks man much appreciated. Good news about the house stuff, I'll be finishing up on my floors (700 sq ft of hardwood took longer than i thought) today finally so the mortgage company will be off my back... which means I can start working on the car again.

Re: Rebuilding my stolen DC
Not a huge update but it's a start... Got my crank position sensor the other day so I can get that on the motor. I also finally got my motor and the rest of the car parts to my house the other week so it's all here now.

Re: Rebuilding my stolen DC
If anyone has a stock axleback they'd like to sell for fairly cheap let me know, I'm going to need it to get the car inspected for a rebuilt title. Thanks

Re: Rebuilding my stolen DC
Technically it still has pa tags which are gone or maybe out there somewhere, regardless they are in the system as stolen. I have a pa salvage title which I will get transferred to ohio when I go for a rebuilt title.

Re: Rebuilding my stolen DC
Didn't make much progress on the car itself tonight but ive been cleaning the garage up and going through my boxes of parts to find everything I moved... I cleaned the engine bay up since it's gotten pretty dusty over the past few weeks/months. My new work area is just about ready

Re: Rebuilding my stolen DC
I have no idea but I do know they don't have inspections out here, only if you transfer a title or do a title change, like salvage to rebuilt... plus since my insurance/address and all that other stuff are now ohio it wouldn't make mush sense to keep using my dads info
