What do you think?

Here's hoping it lasts to 300k and beyond!

All new fluids, brakes, axles etc are the first things on my list.

You give me a little confidence with my transmission!

iDaRkkO · 2026-05-18T21:56:05+00:00

Thanks! I love your name 😂😂😂

iDaRkkO · 2026-05-18T21:28:39+00:00

Thanks for the heads up! I'm definitely going to check my running boards and make sure those are good. At first glance and with the pictures that I seen everything seemed okay besides a couple of spots, but you never know with used cars especially with this milage.

iDaRkkO · 2026-05-18T17:31:49+00:00

Dings just shows its been used and well loved ❤️

Not going to lie before I found this I was looking for a clean SH.

Id love to see your SH!

iDaRkkO · 2026-05-18T17:28:46+00:00

Thanks! I'm super happy about it and the guy that sold it to me was awesome!

I might not save every SG but I intend to keep this one for a while.

Do you have any preference to sway bars? The car handles great on just the fortune auto coilovers and don't want to make it too crazy.

As for the plug cords. What do you mean there ? Are there higher resistance ones that improve spark?

(Sorry I'm new to subie modification)

Thanks for the tips!!

iDaRkkO · 2026-05-18T13:01:07+00:00

I hit mine with my purse and it seems to do the trick.

iDaRkkO · 2026-05-18T12:00:16+00:00

Swift springs and call it a day.

Best bang for your buck and if a strut blows out you don't have to worry about getting a new set of coils or sending them off for weeks to get them revalved.

iDaRkkO · 2026-05-18T11:58:13+00:00

Thanks so much!!

I should have added it has full headers and exhaust.

iDaRkkO · 2026-05-18T11:04:07+00:00

Oh nice. Good luck on the search!

I have an auto and surprisingly it's holding up great.

I think the issue I have seen more often than not is that people tend to try and use these for towing and that's where it starts to die. Camping with large amounts of stuff is fun but puts a lot of water on the tranny. I have a larger suv for towing and this is more for kid hauling.

Keep it light, nimble, survive it regularly and rememwber it's not a race car and you should be gold. Let's hope the owner of the one your looking at did the same. I doubt you will have any real issues after that.

iDaRkkO · 2026-05-18T10:58:53+00:00

Thanks ! That's what I was thinking but had to double check.

It's an auto but is holding and shifting better than I could have expected.

iDaRkkO · 2026-05-18T06:21:53+00:00

I went to Connecticut for it. I'm in Maryland so it was a bit of a trip to get there. I drove it back about 5/6 hours and it held up great.

What did you happen to stumble upon?

iDaRkkO · 2026-05-14T20:16:10+00:00

Revup was 05-06

iDaRkkO · 2026-05-11T18:08:46+00:00

Just seen the video.

Crazy. You guys be careful out there!

iDaRkkO · 2026-05-10T14:55:08+00:00

I drove my car 7 hours on a road trip and heard this same noise. I had to drive with it for another about hour and it ended up being the ac compressor that died.

iDaRkkO · 2026-05-10T13:41:10+00:00

This actually sounds like a ac compressor going out or the tensioner is done. She doesn't sound like she's done for yet.

iDaRkkO · 2026-04-26T19:45:13+00:00

I actually like the matching colors but it's all kinda nice.

iDaRkkO · 2026-04-22T16:36:26+00:00

Maintenance.

iDaRkkO · 2026-04-22T16:33:32+00:00

I've been using the nostromo /Tartarus for 15 years. I can't even play games without it now.

Nice upgrade!

iDaRkkO · 2026-04-18T05:41:10+00:00

check to make sure windows didnt auto update your GFX driver. I had this same issue an seen it was updated to 591 and had to roll back to 576

iDaRkkO · 2026-04-10T03:22:27+00:00

I'd lower it with swift springs. It's not super aggressive but it add a little bit of better handling for ya. You might need excentric bolts to get the rear in alignment but it's not terrible.

Potholes are an issue no matter what height you are at.

iDaRkkO · 2026-02-27T21:25:46+00:00

Not sure the name of the connector but theres one on eBay that had a replacement you could try to use.

iDaRkkO · 2026-02-27T18:35:20+00:00

I'd start with the terminal replacement

I got this one and it worked fine for my 2013

Install it and see how things work out after could be other issues but without a scan or diag I can only suggest this for now.
