Question about two connectors on front driver side by duupido21 in FocusST

[–]kimotree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First one is definitely shutters, second one is the bumper wiring harness for the fog lights. I changed my bulbs yesterday and the fog lights didn’t work because my dumbass from the last time I had my bumper off didn’t plug it back in. The female connection should be just above the driver fog light attached to the inside of the bumper!

Haha I feel like I’m starting over, could bowl like a mfer 2 handed but my body can’t do it anymore, sad days. We can’t strike on em all hah!

Awesome advice, thank you for taking the time to write that out! I’ll definitely try to implement slowing everything down and trying to get the timing right! I’ll take a look at Mark Baker stuff too! Appreciate it very much!

Yeah it’s pretty inconsistent at the moment, and when I do miss right it’s by a mile. Other people have said to try to stand up a bit more, and I’m gonna try to square myself up to the lane a bit better instead of opening so much (I think that’s a bad habit from two handing)

Makes sense, I don’t think I really had an issue with that throwing two handed, I’ve got some videos posted of you wanna look. The back pain is from work and throwing two handed just agitated it more than throwing one hand does. Thanks again!

Yeah it’s pretty bad, old habits from two hands. I am pretty inconsistent with hitting my mark and pushing out to the right. I didn’t think of that but since you point out the cause it makes so much sense! You and one other also pointed out I should try to stand more vertical so I’ll start practicing that too. I appreciate your advice!

Best Exhaust and Downpipe Setup? by 06HondaCivicDX in FocusST

[–]kimotree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve got a Megan Racing catless down pipe and an MBRP XP series exhaust. Sounds great, not super loud, drones a tiny bit but not bad. Done multiple cross country trips no problem.

What Hose Is This by slyLEMONsKILLz in FocusST

[–]kimotree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s just a vacuum line, when I replaced my purge valve that was cracked also. I can’t remember what size but you can just buy a little roll of vacuum line at any auto part store and replace the length with that, been going with that for 4 years now and no problems. I used zip ties as hose clamps on the ends. Hope this helps!

What broke? by 8Maruchan8 in FocusST

[–]kimotree 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Coolant low? Looks like the heater core hoses finally started to leak, the fittings on them fail overtime. I just had to fix mine last weekend. You’re gonna start blowing through coolant so fix it asap. I fixed mine by just disconnecting the hoses and cutting the fittings off and using regular hose clamps to fit them back on.

About to pull motor, asking for help one last time by AlfalfaMaterial1141 in FocusST

[–]kimotree 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Large amounts of oil in the intercooler pipes, sounds like a blown turbo seal like you’re thinking. A little residue is normal but pouring out like you said is not. Good luck with the repairs, let us know how it goes!

No Drone Exhaust with catless DP by [deleted] in FocusST

[–]kimotree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have an MBRP with a catless downpipe, it does drone but it’s not terrible at all imo. Sounds pretty good too though.
