so i was changing my oil at work today while it was up on the lift i decided to take a couple of minutes (like 30 ha) to look over the car. i found a bunch of stuff. i found, a leaking crank seal, leaking oil pan, leaking rear main, leaking FREEZE PLUG, leaking manifold, and of course it needs a clutch, rear end bearings and of course gears ha but while i have the motor out im gonna probably put on long tube headers and the PI heads. ugh so great gotta spend like a hella load of money into fixing leaks and shit thats runing our nice driveway, instead of modifying it. ugh lucky lucky me....


any suggestions on clutches fly wheels and other stuff?

Do a quick search. There have been a bunch of clutch/flywheel threads lately that will get you the answers you need.

there's always some small stuff to keep you from modifying.. i wanted to put a new radiator in about 5 months ago, smelled coolant,
turned out my timing cover gasket was leaking.. so i got to do a timing cover gskt, and a radiator.. it was good practice i guess.

Good luck with longtubes... They are a BITCH on modular cars!

if i have some money left over after the seals, heads, and stuff im seriously consider those headers they look real nice and dont look to cheap.

so today i went to Bennett Auto Supply, and got a few seals and parts.

1) rear main seal - $10.00
2) oil pan gasket - $27.00
3) ball joint - $19.00/ea

and went to Masport speed shop where they had my 75 MM throttle body. $50 bucks.

will be picking up the other ball joint, and timing cover gaskets in the AM. and at the end of the week im getting my PI heads/intake and 2" lowering springs. and the head gasket KIT.

Whats the story on the 75mm tb. did they have any more?

 

[g36 monkey]

can you let me know if you see a performance difference with the throttle body?

and if i remember correctly they improve gas mileage right?
i figure it pushes more air in, so more boom in the engine lol

 

[1FastGT]

no more throttle bodies. and im about to put it on just got home from work letting the beast cool down
