charlie_sheen Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 think that super-tech (walmart brand) will be okay to fill up the other half of my trans fluid until i do my next full service? i mean it all needs to meet industry standards, right?

If the dipstick is there, you probably didn't lose anywhere near half the fluid. Not sure what it's like on the trans, but on the engine, L to F is about one quart.

mwm5094 Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Last 48 hours have been crazy--wife and I put an offer on a huge house in NOVA with a 2 car garage :eek: We should hear back on it today or tomorrow. Huge effing mortgage payment = really nervous, 2 car garage = droool. Anyone wanna rent a walk-out 2 bedroom basement apartment in springfield starting in Sept/Oct? You'd have a pretty good spot to work on your car...:lol: Lol. A little late man I def coulda gone for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I Donated thefultonhow Posted May 1, 2012 I Donated Share Posted May 1, 2012 anyone do anything cool today? My car started both times I tried to start it! Also, I went to the dealer to see if they had TGV-to-head gaskets, and they had one. That wasn't very useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bboygreddy Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 purchased the 06-07 wrx/sti s204 lip for $69 shipped came with "hardware" about 10-12 (i lost count) screws and 4 bumper clips (which aren't usable) surprisingly fit my 08 perfectly size wise, no holes line up so i mach fit it a few times to center it right. the ends line up almost perfectly, i'd say it overshoots maybe 1/8" if that the middle part that everyone talks about cutting, i chopped off about 2-3" on each side used an additional 4 screws to secure it even better. turned out great! surprisingly the lines of the lip follows the bumper contour/lines very nicely http://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-prn1/525578_615314824098_209701627_32237001_906591416_n.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bboygreddy Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 it's almost like this lip is made for this car. except no holes line up but the bumper/lip accent eachother very nicely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

01rs25 Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Scored a complete set of Brembos! Sweet! Should look and perform great with the new wheels and new turbo. Now I'm even more excited to get the car back on the road. Slammed more than your girlfriend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr.hicksta Posted May 2, 2012 Author Share Posted May 2, 2012 Nice dude! Where'd you get the Brembos? Do you plan on powder coating them? What's the dealio with your turbo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
01rs25 Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Picked them up from a good friend of mine. They've just been sitting on his parts car so I got them on the cheap. They'll come with DBA5000's and nice set of Metalmasters. I'm super pumped. Wheels clear perfectly too. http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b192/00vr6gti/Untitled-5.jpg Don't know yet. I paid for Next day Delivery so it could be delivered today, however I guess Bryan wasn't at the office when FedEx tried to deliver today. So it was sent back to the hub. Hopefully it gets delivered tomorrow. :/ Slammed more than your girlfriend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

01rs25 Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Tell be about it... Not very happy so far. I spoke with BNR on Monday and told them to keep an eye out as I sent it next day. Never would have thought it would be completely missed. I was hoping to possibly have this redelivered back by the weekend. All hope isn't lost just yet. Lets see how the rest of the process goes. In other news my new tires should also be here end of the week/ early next week. I've already received one set but they were the wrong size so they had to go back. Can't wait to get some tires wrapped on the wheels. Slammed more than your girlfriend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
