ripemeat Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 SI drive is a switch that switches DBW tables and RT to pedal angle tables in the ECU. The highest RT values can be changed so that WOT is X value, and X value equals a target boost, therefore switching SI modes will change target boost values too. You can override this in the map to keep the target the same throughout, I set I mode to be a valet mode at 7psi. S to be 12psi, and S# to be 15psi.

ripemeat Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 DCCD is manual (and auto) switching of power for front and rear via the center diff. more power to rear or front adjustments for traction. Can't have 100% power going to front or rear alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spc2125 Posted October 6, 2012 Author Share Posted October 6, 2012 So I found out its going to cost roughly $1100 when all said and done to fix the center diff. Problem is when should I tackle this. Most of me says to get it done ASAP just because I dont like problems in general. But money is not available at the moment. But i might go to my bank and see if i can redo my loan and add that too it. It would only add like another $30 a month. But I could possibly save up the money within a few months. But the problem with that is I would not leave any room for another potential emergency. And I dont like living paycheck to paycheck. I would save up and sometime next spring/summer I would have enough saved as well as enough to get it fixed. Or I could try and redo my loan and that way ill have emergency money all while establishing credit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spc2125 Posted October 6, 2012 Author Share Posted October 6, 2012 Can you go to parents for a loan? better than having an actual "bank" after your ass. Umm no. I got myself into this mess. I will get myself out. I have collateral on the car so i could just redo the loan plus the repair cost with interest rate of 3.75%. But i just applied for a credit car that has 0% interest for 12 months.If i get approved and have a limit high enough I will go that route. Plus it will help establiah even more credit. Why does everybody assume that I would have mommy and daddy pay for things? And that they pay for my mods? My mom is unemployed and i have 3 brothers and sisters. Pretty sure the last thing they want to do is pay for car stuff for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not much, that's what. I know what you mean about waiting on it, I'd want to get it fixed asap too, it sucks to have a broken car at all, never mind for months. But...refinancing a repair kind of sucks in that you'll end up paying interest on that diff repair for years. Bummer all around, hoping you get back on the road soon however you end up going. (Aside of asking mom or dad for a loan for it ) I'd personally put a for sale sign on my car after the first time I had to take out a loan from my parents to fix my own car.

If you can get the money and pay it off before they charge interest then that's ok. Just don't get in to deep.

spc2125 Posted October 8, 2012 Author Share Posted October 8, 2012 Got denied that card. But applied for a student credit card that will be more willing to accept with little to non credit history. Yeah i would only use it to put my repair bill on it. And id have 15 months interest free on it. But this is what i am going to school for, financial planning. And i thought it was more reasonable to get a credit card with 0 interest for 15 months than pay 3.75% interest. Also there is a protection plan that if i lose my job, get injured, etc then my payments will be suspended till I am back on my feet. But that will be the last time i talk about finances publicly. Shouldnt have even started. But all will be well one way or another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Donated bucko3the7man Posted October 8, 2012 I Donated Share Posted October 8, 2012 sway bars are easier, but struts/springs will give you the biggest difference. I wanted to do struts/springs first, but if I had done that, all the hotchkis bars would have been gone! So I started with sways/endlinks, but wanted to do struts/springs first. Make sure you get new better endlinks when you do sway bars. Kartboys are amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
