AMAN BROTHER lol

 

worded perfectly, i want to fall under the category of "smart idiot" instead of just buying a camaro with no sentimental value just because it has a 350 that wont be able to take me aound town without putting gas everytime.

 

Yup, and the the V6 can be fast(always remember that) It took me about 9 years before I finally had the chance to mod my engine like I did.

And the benifits are so great, a total blast to drive arround town or anywhere. It feels nice to drive arround knowing that I can compete with the other cars on the highway.

Gas mileage is so nice on a V6, I get the same MPG as anyother V6 thirdgen, untill I floor it, which is hard not to do.....

 

lol i understand you completely, haha, i got a funny story to tell you. today after school i was driving and a truck with one of my friends was behind and i was like ok backup, so at a turn i moved to the right of the road and litterally drifted that whole turn. lol it was so fun. then he tried and his truck turned off lol.

 

LOL fun cars for sure. The handling on these V6's are so good for being a early 1990's car. Probly helps that the V6's weights less and is more twards the center of the car then a V8

Its good to hear your having a fun time in the cammy!

 

i miss my v6 car, endlessly throwable and so much fun in an icy parking lot

 

Yes it is lol, OK so quick question.

so before i go on checking the rear main seal,

where is/ What is? the Dizzy? that oil might be coming out of, and what is the full name for it, dumb question but im lost lol

 

dizzy is the distributor, and oil shouldn't be coming out of it 0.o

 

Dizzy is the item that all of your spark plugs wires are attatched to. Take a light and look for oil behind it. There is a little valley in the block next to the dizzy that will have oil in it if your o-ring is leaking. You can miss it just look arround the dizzy.

 

K, today after im done inspecting the car i am dropping the tranny and more then likely replacing the clutch if contaminated, wish me luck ^_^

 

good luck lol dont forget lots of pics and documentation incase i gotta do that crap too lol

 

ok well for now, all i did was clean up under my car ( EXTREMELY FRIKIN DIRTY) and tigtened the oil pan. still leaked though and i didnt have my ramps so ima have to wait till tuesday, hopefully it goes good. for now ima try that antileak stuff and see if it will hold up till then, took some pics of the dirtyness, let me get them up here

 

ok so, on the way to autozone, the bottom radiator hose connected tot the engine popped off and emptied my antifreeze :/ luckily i had my tools, a jack, and radiator fluid, idk how it popped off but its on now luckily, i also put some of that stuff in it (rear main seal fluid) so it should be good, now time to go cruising on this hot summer day lol, deuces./

 

Have fun crusing. I was earlier and was ticked off that I g-teched a slow 14.98 @ 99.xxx MPH

Be carful on that motor and keep a eye out for the oil leak if your not going to fix it.

 

eddi you soung younge. i picked you as older? with all your knolage and all...haha thats a fricken sweet set you got there though. if my car was MUCH faster i would try to get suin like that...still workin on the small things for now. once im done ill start in on that old 3.1 lol.
do what i did. i ductaped my video camera to my dash lookin out the front windsheild. and then give it some REAL hell for us. lol
btw what kinda equipment you runnin with all them screens there?

 

well im 27, but i feel older then that..

I thought of useing some velcro, just a little square of it. That would be cool come racing season.

Im using tunerpro Rt, its some tuning software. I can watch, record, and make tuning to the ECM on the car. Also theres a Air Fuel Ratio guage thats mounted under the dash. The green numbers that are flashing.

 

Very Nice, lol well yesterday i raced a car, it was a mistubishi, pretty damn fast one too, but my car didnt stay behind. lol cant wait to get turbo ^_^

 

Here are the pics of my cleaned up tranny,



this is where it was leaking from, After putting the rear main seal stop leak flid its done luckily, for now it will have to do

 

Very nice! Clean!

 

GREAT WORK BRO! so did you stop the leak fully? did you make sure to lube the seal up a little bit with oil to get a tight seal?

 

i didnt drop it man, i just used some fluid that stops the seal, for a temp fix, until i get a good lift to drop the car, also bought another can of seafoam and gonna put 50 in oil and 50 in vaccumm, i love this stuff lol thcs man for introducing me to her,

 

yea man, jsut make SURE you put it in the RIGHT vacume line lol. i never got it because 10 bucks for a can is pricey but man am i glad i did lo.. stuff is awsome. my next advature in the world of additives is that mystery oil stuff i hear GREAT things about it. ill let cha know..i better be carful, soon ill be running all additives and no oil hahah jk

 

Im not sure what vac line you guys use, but I used the brake booster vacume line in the past. Thats the big one off of the back on the intake manifold. You just have to let it slowly suck the stuff in or the car will probly stall out.

You cleaned up that tranny nice! Wana come out and get mine looking like that? Ill burn you off a nice chip to help your car go faster!! Better then those rip off hypertech ones that places sell.

 

can you just throw a chip in and see gains? if soooo.... what kinda dough would that run me for ya to make me one? oor i could come clean ya tranny up no prob. haha then you can take me for that ride we talked about.

 

my CAI is shipped and am now awaiting its arrival MWAHAHA!! cant wait. so quick question, how good does interior look after being spray painted. my friend painted his carpet black then put a coat of clearcoat to keep the color. would it look alright ?

 

Any car can benifit from a tuned chip! And its a great investment as the hardware will work with all obd1 (all thirdgens). So if you ever get another car a V8 camaro or whatever, as long as it has a onboard diagnostic system It will work. Its not too exspencive. I just like that I can change basically anything that the car does. Fueling, spark, speed limits, the launch mode, the fan on/off temp, and many more things that will help the car get better MPG's, better power, and if you do mods to the motor you can get the most out of the mod.

 

how do you burn chips and what not? and how much does the verage person charge to make one,

 

I burn chips with a chip burner... I just take a chip and put into the hardware and there ya go. Im not sure what some ppl charge to burn chips for our cars as most tuners wont touch a OBD1 ecm. Thats why I just learned how to do it myself. Total cost of all the equiptment to do it was under 200 bucks and now I can burn chips as much as I want.

The time it took to learn the stuff took some time as im still a newbe at tuning but I can definitly work on the non-turboed 3.1L bin(stock)files. I was getting really good at that, but the turboed car now is a little more difficult to tune as the hardest part is tunning for Wide Open Throttle.

 

ahh, how much will you charge me to burn me a chip bro?

 

Alight, so im changing the bulbs in my dash cluster, cleaning it up too. any ideas that i should do while its apart?

 

$0.00. free, you just buy the stuff to put it in your car and the chip itself. So if you ever want me to burn one let me know

 

sounds good man, what and what will i need exactly? and ill get to it asap

 

At the bare minumum youd need this and it so easy to install. Ill take a very in depth video if you want on how to put this on your car.

http://www.moates.net/gp1-package-gm....html?cPath=64

And it would also be nice if you got this cable, so you could go drive your car, record the data and then you could message me a file on what the car was doing(in a file) Its not as hard as you think as Id be the one interpreting the data and then Id send you a chip that youd put back in the car.
http://aldlcables.com/sc/details.asp?item=aldlobd1u

But if you could only afford so much then youd atleast need the first link that i put on here, but i could only tune so much as I need to be able to see the info, via, the aldl cable to get the best tune possible. And I could definitly get you better MPG overall. After tuning mine i saw a 8Mpg difference, which is alot these days on such a old car.

 

this is true, ok so i got 80$,

What should i buy next for my car?

should i get the chips or something else?

 

if you ever want to really mod the car, or are keeping it for a bit. Get the 2nd link. The ALDL cable. Then you can hook your lap top up to it. It is about 50 bucks i think. Well worth the $

 

yea, its been decided that im NOT EVER going to sell the car, just mod it and work on it till the engine is done, but my engine will last.

i will try to start on ordering it. my CAI gets here on the 3rd so im waiting impatiently haha.

Ok i also forgot to mention this, lately while im in 2 and 3rd around like 3000 RPMS my clutch seems to make a weird sound, like a loud ZZZZZZZ untill i get to higher RPMS or shift, is something in my tranny or did it break?

 

well guys i finally got a good job, paying a mininium of 800 every 15 days, at a dairy. to start off i will have to pay some bills due so i will have around 400 to spend but still will go a good ways ^_^ time to mod the heck out of my car

 

Awsome bro!! Good for you man! I just got a job offer at a big company in toledo ohio, a hour from where I live. Its a union industrial HVAC job. Im really excited also, might only pay 12-15 bucks a hr. but its a union job and has alot of potential in the future.

Cool that we both are having job sucesses!!

 

im a college student working at autozone (deep sigh)

 

Im in collage too, im going to graduate in may. At least you got a job and are getting some education!

 

lol i worked at autozone for a while i fricken LOVED it lol
20% discount and get to play with car parst all day....no deep sighs brother, i miss that job lol

 

you dont work at the same one i do all we sell is ford ranger parts to hicks, and yeah aleast its money and i only work two days because i go to school full time

 

im in high school, 12 grade to be exact. this is my scheduale:

sleep from 4:10 to 7:10
School form 8:05-3:10
Sleep from now to 7:30

 

K guys well here is my New CAI i got, Still have yet to install the MAF sensor, but i plan on adding it to the CAI soon:

 

dang looks siiiick. i sprang for the chip setup insted, the duel snorkal will prolly be my next upgrade. YOU NEED TO GET THIS CHIP SET UP! its cool how much you can see with just the cord and a laptop. let alone once chips begin flowing in and out haha. im puumped. but that looks REAL nice man! good job.! what did that run ya?

 

IS THERE DUEL FILTERS IN THE BOX'S OR SUIN?

 

there actaully is no box, the filters are held up to the intake with some clips as seen, and its on both sides bro,

 

i got it for 58, with the K&N filters included bro

 

Your not hooking up the MAF sensor are you?? You DONT need to do that as your car has a MAP sensor instead. I had a MAF pipe on mine but it was gutted and no MAF sensor was in the pipe.

Did you extend your Intake Air Tempeture sensor to that new box?? If so then just leave it the way it is in the picture and you'll be good!

Lookin good though bro. You got a good deal for 58 bucks with filters

 

dang that is a good dealm cheapest one i found was on ebay for 70 and thats for just the top part. not he bottom...
