Default Damn snails!!...grrrr

I busted my *** for 4 days trying to personalize my Hunda and guess what happened! I popped my hood one morning only to find a nasty *** snail on the engine! This really pisses me off.... I can't get my MSN photo page to work so here's a link to my Geoshities page that MIGHT work. If that one doesn't work then click the this link for my index page and then choose the bottom most link on the left!


[edit]This ARC intercooler needs a new home!![/edit]

Your links don't work, but I take it you're being sarcastic and that your "nasty *** snail" is actually a nasty *** turbo. drooooooool

Damn the intercooler is pretty tall. Not going to get much of the surface area to get air right to it. What kind is it?

Flamenco...I didn't use a banjo. The fitting is a -6 adapter fitting for Del Orto carbueretors. I forgot the actual size so I'll post the info with part number and price when I get home!


Ricehornet.. I'm using some cheap RCA digi-cam! I'm gonna try some different settings tomorrow in hopes that I can get some better pics. I want to get a Sont digi-cam but the JDM GF is already pissed because about the loot that I spent on the car. $800 camera or add to the house savings plan???.. I guess I'll just sell some of my extra parts..

Default Re: Damn snails!!...grrrr (Prelude_RCR)

Flamenco... here is what I used for my Fuel setup.

AEM fuel filter with an EARL's (PN 991945) 12mm x 1.25 to -6 adapter

-6 filter to rail line with 90 degree forged hose end (PN 809006) and -6 straight hose end(PN 800106)

Fuel rail inlet adapter is the same as the filter adapter above.

The stock FPR was removed and the hole was tapped for a -6 to 3/8" adapter (PN 981608)

-6 line and fittings are used to connect the rail to the FPR and a -6 to -4 adapter along with a -4 tube nut & sleeve is used to connect the FPR to the tank return line.

All parts can be ordered from Summit racing or AN plumbing.

Prelude... That's one of many lifts at one of the 6 Auto Hobby shops here in Okinawa. The only problem is you have to have a access to the military base to use 'em! I guess I'm lucky since I work on one of the bases.

update...

Tranny still DOWN.. ! Somehow one the arms on the the OS Giken throw bearing lost a finger so the clutch wasn't engaging/disengaging correctly. I installed a stock bearing as a temp fix yesterday and now the car will not go into gear while the engine is on. Today after work I will be dropping the tranny again to check the release fork, bearing, and the slave cylinder. Can't BOOST w/o a tranny!!

Remember Dave shipped out to fight the taliban a month ago. I need to send him letter. Since this war tends to be tidy up quickly he maybe back for TAS.
