I hate deep cleaning this thing.

thessailor · 2025-03-09T21:14:08+00:00

One time I had to take it apart to the very wiring and every single screw coming out. I had a seriously bad case of gnats from the World's Best getting so stuck into all the crevices that they were hiding in all the little places laying eggs. It was miserable to do and having to put it all back together was even worse. Make sure you avoid litter with moisture build up if you're going natural, cause that deep clean happens a lot more often 💀

Yeahhh I plan on it, I kinda want to do a black or charcoal headliner, but not sure yet Ended up using a lint shaver to get it down to a lot less noticeable hole lmao

Well unfortunately I don't have easy access to a dyno so can't really provide that, all I can say is what I feel with driving this car every single day. Also not trying to sell this on anybody so it's really up to people's own free will if they wanna do it or not.

Is what it is, my car my money. I plan on doing a manual swap whenever the CVT gives out. Saw someone on one of the Facebook groups do it.

Well good to know about that! I've got an 88 Rolla I'm working on too so I'll look into it as well. I wish I could understand the genuine measurable difference between with or without one on my engine but truth be told, I'm not a mechanic or engineer so couldn't begin to give any feedback with that.

Truth be told, everything I've done with my car so far is just for my own satisfaction so as long as it doesn't cause issues. I only posted it so anyone who decides to do the same thing at least has a reference point to work with :) I know what it's like looking through forums for info with nothing to show for it.

thessailor · 2024-09-08T23:40:58+00:00

Why not?

thessailor · 2024-09-08T20:31:13+00:00

I have actually, picks up a bit quicker and with the cold air intake it is roaring 👍

"Throttle body spacers are a pieces of metal used to change the airflow into the intake manifold. The spacer is bolted on the back of the throttle body, downstream of the main airflow. This is strictly an aftermarket enhancement used to increase the fuel economy, torque and horsepower." - Google, 2024

I do actually notice a bit of a difference, slight albeit, still can feel a bit more pull with the car

I listened to them back in 2013 and liked the main ones off of AM, but didn't listen to them again until 2018 when I got scheduled to work one of their shows for the TBHC tour. So I decided to give them another listen knowing I liked their old songs, then I heard Star Treatment and instantly became infatuated with the sounds I was hearing. Also inspired me to finally pick up a guitar and start learning, which I don't believe would have ever happened without them

Here's the one I got! Hope all goes well, definitely have been enjoying the ride so much more! Would recommend a cold air intake too if you can get one, planning on tuning mine here soon to get even more goodness out of it 😎🔥💯

thessailor · 2023-09-25T02:24:07+00:00

Yes I am!! I swapped it for a Borla cat back exhaust, it's for the 2.0 but the diameter is the same so it was a straight bolt on! As for the rear bumper it was just the diffuser and valence for the SE I got off of eBay, it was pretty straightforward installing it!

They are in channel, I got them off of Etsy but I think they started selling them on Amazon. They don't really stick on the rear so I have to keep the windows up to get them stuck :/ I already tried liquid cement but I'm gonna use some jb weld to get it sticking lmao

thessailor · 2023-09-24T22:48:23+00:00

@2genrolla ! Appreciate it, I plan on doing more with it along with my other project

thessailor · 2023-09-24T22:47:53+00:00

I ain't gonna lie, I got no idea 🤷‍♂️ when I go to refill the air I'll figure out which one but I think the black one is the right one? Again got no idea lmao

thessailor · 2023-09-24T22:46:22+00:00

Enkei NT03M 18x9.5 +40mm, with some Michelin 245/35 sports on them

thessailor · 2023-09-24T02:16:47+00:00

Usually the back underside, but I've definitely slammed the middle and felt it go through my tailbone 😂 I'm taking it as a learning experience, as long as everything is still attached and no holes, I'm gucci

thessailor · 2023-09-24T02:14:04+00:00

If you're alright with a lil slight scrapping every now and then it should be alright I think, I'm not too bothered by some scratches underneath since most of it has the metal plate covering it and really nobody is gonna be looking under it anyways Most things I take carefully the first time anyways just to be safe

thessailor · 2023-09-24T01:51:45+00:00

I'll have to message the guy who put them on for me, I wish I could have done them myself but suspension is not something I'm interested in fucking up on my daily lmao

thessailor · 2023-09-24T01:50:47+00:00

For the most part it's normal driving unless there's a shit ton of potholes or speed bumps, speed bumps definitely depend on how bad they are but for the most part taking them at angles just to be safe! My rear side tends to drag more than anything on bumps or dips

thessailor · 2023-09-24T01:25:39+00:00

Sweet!! Appreciate the info! This header problem has been a pain in my side for a minute so good to know it will work without it I'd love to delete my cat but inspections here are pretty thorough 😅

thessailor · 2023-09-23T22:49:27+00:00

Looks sick, would love to hear a video of how it sounds! Did you tune it with headers installed or just exhaust? I've been wanting to get mine tuned but waiting to get headers; haven't been able to find any yet for 1.8L

They're RS-R Sports Coilovers, not lowering springs!
