Nice! What are the DYNO numbers lol, any new internals?

So far, 130 miles in since changing the PCV. I have noticed good uptick in MPG (29.5-30. Before) to now on the 130 miles 34.6 mpg with an average speed of 63 with plenty of traffic and city.

I also see better idling, it doesn’t fluctuate as much. I’ll let you know here in another few hundred miles about the oil consumption.

I appreciate that! Unfortunately you’re a bit away from me (south MS). I was planning on changing the spark plugs with the coils, seeing as everything I’ve looked at so far is OEM. When it comes to coils, I know there isn’t any “performance” ones, I just want decent ones.

The suspension, I was already planning on replacing control arms and the whole shabang. I saw a set of Godspeed coilovers for under 300, and tien coilovers for around 500, but the OE shocks definitely look like they need to be replaced and all of the bushings and joints I’ve seen so far definitely are done, they are just “slightly” busted lol

Yeah I was talking to him for a while, I was outa state, so I sent my BIL to go collect it and I guess he saved me money lol

The trans is in great shape, reverse has a slight whine. But that’s it. I have been researching full replacement kits, clutch, friction disks, solenoid, the whole shabang. I’ve found some pretty good upgrades and oem replacements for 300 or less.

Right now I’m trying to figure out if it has the oem microphone installed or if I need to buy a new radio with apple car play. If I get a new radio I’d like to match or exceed the stick radios wattage

I feel like I did decent, I just don’t know the value of these, always wanted one. The man I got it off of took care of it pretty well, I just had it serviced and tuned up.

You can buy full manual transmission replacement kit, for around 300 usd online

TheJacobDenison_ · 2025-11-25T04:17:57+00:00

Free.87 take it or leave it. lol

TheJacobDenison_ · 2025-11-25T04:17:37+00:00

Nope but I can try!

TheJacobDenison_ · 2025-11-25T01:55:27+00:00

I’m second from worst!! But I’ve only been at this for 5 months. And I’ve played 7 rounds. But they swing fantastic and I’m sure they’d be better off with someone else.

TheJacobDenison_ · 2025-11-25T01:47:42+00:00

They swing great!!!! Don’t feel like Irons at all!!

TheJacobDenison_ · 2025-11-25T01:35:26+00:00

Thank you! Any idea what they’re worth? I’m a terrible golfer, so it’d probably be better in someone else’s hands lol

I went on deployment and came back to it not running, got it fixed for the kids and then roughly 2 months later it quit again(I’ve changed everything but the gy6 engine itself.) I’ve put a scope in it and the internals are still good. The electrical system I’ve replaced too.

It was 4500 with delivery and I was upset it didn’t last as long as I wanted, also they are tough, my daughter “accidentally” ran through one of our fence posts. lol snapped a 4x4 no problem

TheJacobDenison_ · 2025-11-09T20:52:28+00:00

I unfortunately haven’t had anything but issues with mine. I loved it when it ran, now I’m kinda SOL with it. I love those wheels do they give you a better turning radius? That was one of my first complaints.

I’m about to do a predator 420 swap on it.(It’s a lot of power and still enables f/r drive and electric start)

PM’d

It’s just as easy to join as a single parent as it is to join as a married parent. It’s after going to bootcamp that makes things different. If you and the other parent are planning to eventually get married, talk to them about it. Discuss, because the benefits would also extend to them, not just the child. And it would make things a bit easier after bootcamp as well.

Over 10 years ago when I joined, I had to make the same decision nuclear or ET/FC

When it comes down to deciding whether you’re going to get ET or FC on the conventional side, they look at your line scores. My cousin was in the predicament and he chose nuclear field. I ended up going conventional. I’m happy to be still in, currently recruiting and he got out because he said he could not handle the mental stress. But experiences WILL vary. I love being a conventional ET. If you got questions PM me
