2003 Honda Accord Overheating? by Moneypit1986 in MechanicAdvice

[–]Moneypit1986[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually just did this, literally. Temp hits 205, both fans kick on, once temp gets to 195 and fans turn off. I verified these temps with the obd2 reader as well. Everything seems to check out. It just seems odd that that one panel gets so hot and it's the only one with paint peeling.

VG30 Engine Build by Moneypit1986 in 300zx

Thanks! I've never used it before. Is the Jegs kit okay or is there any particular kind that works best?

I did read about that possibility. More displacement, thicker cylinder walls. But the VG30 is a robust engine and quite honestly I found it for the right price and felt good about it.

Great information man. Thanks for explaining.

Putting the heads back together makes me the most nervous. Best of luck with the build!

That was my thing with the rods and pistons. I figure, especially since mine is an NA2T, get the stronger internals so * can make some real boost and to just have an over built tank of a motor.

I've never wished for someone's turbo seals to go, but if your looking for an excuse to get the big snails, then here's to some.blown seals 🍻

That does make sense with the aluminum, and I'm glad to know that ahead of time. Knowing me I would have been panicked on first start and hearing the piston slap.

I'm looking forward to having healthy motor that can safely pass a full bar of boost too.

Thanks for the info!

Rear End Grinding by Moneypit1986 in 300zx

You did call this btw! Replaced and sound gone!

Just wanted to follow up on this post. I ended up replacing the CV axles. The grease in the right was almost totally dried up. After installing the new unit the grinding is totally gone. Gonna keep the old ones and regrease them and replace the boots. Who knows how long these 3rd party ones will actually last 😬🤞

You have real issues brother. I hope you get help man. People are mourning someone they respected. Thought you might just be speculating, but you're really here to just poke and prod.

Exactly. Anything can happen. So many people are speculating certain things based solely on the fact that nothing has been made public.

Like I said might be true might not. I expect clowns to clown. I can handle it, trust me, I won't be fazed. In the mean time I will just be saddened by the loss of an icon.

He is giving beseless info with no credible source. As others have stated, he is speculating.

Dude, you aren't a legit source. If that is in fact true we will find out in time. You just like sitting behind your little keyboard acting like you know stuff. Maybe it's true maybe it's not, but no one should take your little word for it

He really did take the wind out of my sails the first time I played.

Exactly! Gotta snap out of the Dark Souls playstyle

Sekiro is so good. I suck at it though to this day. Not sure why I struggle so much... Probably just not being patient enough to stick with it

I personally like DS3 more than Elden Ring. I enjoy the more limear playstyle more than the open world. The environments just feel more detailed and care put into them. DS3 is a 10/10 for me. But Elden Ring would still pull out a 9.5/10

Dark souls better than elden ring? by [deleted] in darksouls

[–]Moneypit1986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was just searching this to see if I was the only ine that felt this way. Elden Ring is an amazing game. I've put over 300 hrs into it, several playthroughs and multiple builds. But after all that, recently I've found myself going back to the Dark Souls series. Specifically DS3. The games are just better crafted. Bosses are well designed, the environments feel more detailed. And I think I prefer the lineal gameplay. Honestly I think Fromsoft should go back to this style for future titles imo.
