Awesome pics, you know the right DSM photo angles
Good job on the plate. A perfect way to repair 7 bolt reputation!

How'd that tuning go?

You don't need to move to Quebec to delete the front plate.

A screwdriver and maybe a few sockets go a long way

Good except for a lot of phantom knock which we believe is down to a bad injector seal and/or base timing both of which will be rectified within 2 weeks.

The way I see it, people pay for the BP "Angry Aero" things. A front license plate, when mounted in the right spot is half way there!

Here's how mine acts

Meet Cheryl, my $1300 kijiji pick of the night. 229k, brand new winter tires, no rust, no accidents, really clean. Timing belt has been done, flex pipe replaced (common to break). 2005, 5-speed Elantra GLS. Drives perfectly, everything works. I have a little fleet of Elantras now lol! It's the same cast iron block/aluminium DOHC head G4GC "Beta II" engine as my white turbo auto, but this one has VVT.

I missed the days of filling the tank from empty for $42 and driving from Vaughan home and using a mere 1/8th tank

Cheryl lol...how fitting, nothing like a fuel sipping econobox for your DD needs.

Nice - looks good! Great deal

Damn clean for the year and milage.

Nice hunting Lucian!

Almost as clean as my $460 Accord. Good find.

Out for a breath of fresh winter air

When are ya rippin that motor apart?

Over the holidays, had to get in one little play in the snow

Beautiful pic Jason!! Definitely a 2g I would own!

Very nice pic Jason and i am surprised you did. Most likely there was no salt

For sure, it's just in the parking lot of the shop, zero salt and just a little snow.

Tell more about motor plans

Cam/spring swap, fix a minor oil leak, pretty sure its the crank seal on the front case, swap out clutch, re-install and boost on

This tired old 7 bolt is going to run a 10.99 or blow up attempting to do so, one of the 2 is a given.

If the latter happens, I already have a plan b.

Can't hide from me in Cali

Smexy!

Wow that's a clean car.

It's minus 40 with a foot of snow up here.

Perfect weather to get some DSM work done in your garage

Your list from 2013



How many still outstanding ?

Unless you work in an unheated garage.

Oil heater is 20$ it works pretty well, at least enough that I can do just a sweater.

Many years ago i used this in my unheated garage:



Of course propane heaters are not as healthy or efficient as Bryans suggestion but it got me projets completed

I got a heater, but I work in my neighbours garage and dont want to rack up his electric bill.

I just take it like a man and let the little ones shrink.

LOL Alex you better have good ventilation if you are using that, unless you have a death wish.

Nice thing about the oil heater is that you plug them in and heat them up and it retains heat very well, i usually just make sure it's relatively close to me.

1st world problems

That list is like 2 years old. But funny enough I didn't get around to installing the 272's as I upgraded to 280's which aren't installed yet. Everything done except that and the passenger seat.

But at this point, it's a completely different list lol.

My garage has insulation but no heat. I would be in there but there's far too much stored furniture and equipment to get comfortable in there. Had thought about doing the storage bay thing like you Alex but that reason alone isn't justifiable just yet.

Thanks Mike, i wish I could take full credit but storage bins is Terry S idea and also garage workbench

Think I'm going to pick up one of these, I can't get any work done with the -29 temps we've been having.

Same damn heater at crappytire is $299 lol

http://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/kero-world-convection-kerosene-heater-0762134p.html#.VLCFLXu4J8E

$100 in the US or $300 in Canada. Makes sense.

Apparently they think 20% exchange rate means $200

Is ventilation really important with that type of heater Jason? $100 is a good deal

Canadian TSC has it on sale right now

Well I have not posted in a while. As some of you saw I blew up my turbo at Cayuga. It ended up shooting shards of metal into the FMIC so I had to buy a new one. I got a SICK deal on a full AMS kit. FMIC, Upper and lower IC pipes and Intake. I also swapped my GTX3076 for a GTX3071.

With the new setup I put down 412 whp and 358 tq

Holly crap just look at that machine! Well done Tim! Stock motor and tranny internals? please tell me all about your rims & tires. my stock MR seems a bit embarrassing next to yours lol

Tim's evo is really nice in person!

show us the ass Tim!

That thing has a sweet ass!
