This is horrible. Hopefully posting this will relieve me of some of my giddyness...but these came in the mail today...and I'm stuck at the office for the next 3 1/2 hours...

I can't wait to get home! My first real mod! (that I'VE done to the car)

another set of ebay clears. they seem to be very good quality, haven't had any problems with mine.

Oh, look at those babies! I was thinking of getting a set myself.
I just replaced my RH one (thanks Boosty) that had a bad crack in it. Not sure what my wife would think if I bought more!

BTW: Your avatar, are you DJ'ing?

the mod bug has you

CJCroel 08-31-2007 03:24 PM

The mod bug DOES have me, it's kinda nice though. After doing those, I think it'll be a nice night to have a few beers...pull my TB off, clean that out...maybe pull my fender and pop a few dents...i mean, why not? I have nowhere to be haha.

And yes, I'm DJing in the avatar...it's something I do part-time for fun...usually every Sat. or every other Sat. at a bar near Lansing...good times (sometimes) :roll:

Awsome. But defintly beware of that mod bug. Once he's bitten and it looks like he has your $ starts disapearing into your bonne :lol:

Here's the results! After about 5 hours, I got the intake all cleaned out, my clear corners on, and seafoamed it! It took longer than it should have due to those d@mn IAC screws both snapping off, had to tap & die the heck out of it, but I made it work.

What? I can only get it halfway in?

And this is why
Attachment 43193

Okay...where do I start?
Attachment 43194

This is where I start...you guys were all in my tiny one car garage helping!
Attachment 43195

Something simple first, let's put my clear corners on
Attachment 43196

Or...not so simple
Attachment 43197

Hmmm...what's down here? (Trying to get access to my fender bolts)
Attachment 43198

Oops.
Attachment 43199


This is probably eventually where my CAI will go...
Attachment 43200

Very Nice!
Attachment 43201

I guess my neighbor popped over to take a picture of me?
Attachment 43202

Diiiiirtaayyyyy
Attachment 43203

Let's take a break...I get to see this almost every night...
Attachment 43204

Insert extreme rage and cussing here
Attachment 43205

Wow...it...shines!
Attachment 43206

The other end
Attachment 43207

Cleaned up the IAC
Attachment 43208

Retired my old corners
Attachment 43209

DONE!
Attachment 43210

OOPS, forgot to SEAFOAM! :twisted:
Attachment 43211

So that was my night...
She's a little stronger now, not a huge difference, but I noticed. Got some tire squawk when I hit it...took a video too!

oohhhhh nice 8)

I just used the Seafoam also, made quite a difference :D


oh, and you are not alone in the DJ thing... check out Darrel. He is here in Michigan and also does it part time ;)

Jack 09-03-2007 09:34 AM

Clear Corners are a nice touch 8) , now throw some Silverstar marker lights up front . That TB is so clean I would eat out of it, she'll be a little happier now. BTW, l Iike your engine cover ;)


Your car make me miss my '99 SE :(

leftd90 09-03-2007 10:34 PM
