Filled every tire with air because the tpms all went off after getting into my car at work. Cold weather isn't helping

Brettb1234 · 10-03-2015, 11:37 PM

Filled tires with air and replaced the wiper blades. Need to get at my swirls on my paint but need to get the stuff to do so...

kaigoss69 · 10-04-2015, 09:44 AM

Replaced the ugly OEM exhaust tips. Should've done this many years ago!

got the steering wheel trim done and decided to do the cup holder panel, didnt have a even matte finish on it...

I'm about to do my steering wheel exactly the same. Any tips?

Pulled over

Installed my JB4 G5 after owning it for like 3 months. Installation was a medium in terms of difficulty, imo. Not super easy but not very hard either. Pulling the sliding things out of the connectors and then putting the big connector back on were to two of the hardest parts.

The JB4 made a big difference. I have BMS DCI and VRSF CP + Tial BOV but I don't know if they do that much. It started raining really hard out of nowhere right when I finished the installation. Needless to say, the test drive was a lot of sliding around and just insane amounts of power that never made it to the ground lol. I need to put the VRSF FMIC, DPs, and the BMS catch can on the car and see if it makes a difference.

supahman04 · 10-05-2015, 08:53 AM

Almost lit it on fire and walked away with a smile. These damn CEL's that nobody can solve have truly made me start hating the car...

bloppitybloop · 10-05-2015, 10:36 AM

Purchased a water pump and thermostat since I'm at 80k miles. I'm trying to be prepared for when the water pump goes.

Mine was actually done in 3 pieces... the seams are at the really thin point L & R of the air bag.

I didnt have the courage to pop the bag out lol...

a good sharp xacto knife and go slow to trim.

So you didn't even take the piece out? I've heard you can do it very gently without removing the airbag.

rohitsja · 10-06-2015, 11:00 AM

I did nothing but the car itself got out of the Maintenance warranty this morning .

GB-335xiCoupe · 10-08-2015, 06:34 AM

Drag raced against my buddy. New Chevy Malibu with the big turbo engine. He took off on the first beep. I waited for the third beep, so he had a 1.5 sec lead. Took him out at 110. Vishnu was turned off. I was actually surprised how fast he was.

Whathedunks · 10-08-2015, 03:57 PM

Finished walnut blasting my valves, changed spark plugs, replaced the factory vacuum fitting with a 1/4 barb fitting. Waiting on some 4mm vacuum line so I can reinstall everything.
