Hell I still like them.. I mean ya there are alot of ppl saying they are played, but we did go to the largest import convention in the u.s. I don't see them in person back home. Only at ia and in magazines. If I end up buying an em1 it will be on lm10's. (I think that's what they are called. I don't know wheels very good. Only compressor and turbine wheels.)

 

went to load the car on the trailer last night and as i backed out of the driveway i heard a small noise. so i drove it around the block without issue. lifted the front left and my front bearing is going out which i had expected because at putnam my front left lug nuts had lost torque every session.

on a better note, i had a guy call work and give me his vin. it went as follows. periods are being used for his pause as him mynd sturz.(spelling errors on purpose).

"twoo...h as in.........honda..n as in....nancy..y as in..ice cream..." i about fricking exploded. how i didn't laugh but i about wanted to say "you mean y as in why aren't you hooked on phonics."

 

hahaha LMAO!


What noises does the wheel bearing make when it starts going? I have a feeling mine are going, I replaced my axles but now Im still hearing that noise of like peppe being crushed is what it sounds like when I creep to a stop. Is that a wheel bearing?

 

mine doesn't make a noise while driving. i just heard a click type noise coming off the curb. normally while driving the bearing will hum and the sound should/might be variable per speed.

i don't know what peepe is so i don't know how to answer that. but regardless i would check the ball joints and bushings. also double check those cv joints because they will pop/click when they are going bad.

 

Pepper*

Yeah it's like a popping sound. Not when turning but just when going real slow barely moving. Like pepper being crushed lol

 

well..from what the description of pepper being crushed and you slowing down i'm going with something brakes related.

 

12hr work days FTL

 

Super hot work area next to an oven at 1500 degrees FTL

Rear discs going on here within a week or two. Also, finishing up paint here shortly once the weather dies down.

 

I feel you on that. It was 92 degrees today if you add the humidity its like 99. I feel bad for the ppl that work outside.

 

Nah I dont think so. It def drivetrain so axle or hub? Probably the axle though. Mine started making that noise after about a year of a ripped boot. Only cost me 45 bucks and got my car running again so I dont really mind lol. Heres to another 2 years on these axles rofl!

 

Yesterday was 98 without the humidity. Sad part is we go outside to cool off where I work. Lol.
