scoobycoupe Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 very nice man having the window sticker is a sweet touch too! I had a 93 SS sedan 5mt and I loved, still regret selling it to this day since I only got $1000 for it . What are your plans for it?
acefighter028 Posted January 20, 2013 Author Posted January 20, 2013 very nice man having the window sticker is a sweet touch too! I had a 93 SS sedan 5mt and I loved, still regret selling it to this day since I only got $1000 for it . What are your plans for it? I found that when i got home and i was very pleased. I am just going to use this as a daily driver. I have a 99 civic Si that is my baby. All i really plan to do is new tires and brakes. Then later get it repainted the same color, get the rust fixed, tint the windows, remote start and keyless entry. Perhaps more in the future. But just a daily driver for now. Read check engine code. 22. knock sensor. I dont know if its because he didnt use premium or its the knock sensor being bad.
monkeyposeur Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 Nice to see you finally picked it up! I love the window sticker and all the manuals. Enjoy it! I'm still working on getting mine to run right after almost a year of working on it. Keep an eye on the head gaskets. If you run into any problems let me know since I have replaced just about everything on mine, lol. That window sticker is pretty accurate. I get about 18-19 mpg city driving, always premium gas.
Bdubs Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 Nice find! My auto SS averages 19-20mpg if you keep it tuned up properly. Interesting to see that color red was an option which they charged for. Same color as mine, and I never knew that.
acefighter028 Posted January 24, 2013 Author Posted January 24, 2013 Well after getting new tires i started hearing this constant thumping noise in the rearend so after lifting the car up and checking for anything loose. Diff, half shafts, carrier bearing and sway bar end links i couldn't find anything wrong. After 30 min of troubleshooting i grabbed the wheel and the damn shop i took it to get the tires done didn't even tighten the lugnuts down. The wheel was wobbling. Kinda glad it was something that simple. Well anyways. New steering wheel on and steering column cover. Kumho Solus KR21 85,000 mile tires. All i need now is to replace the knock sensor, battery clamps and turn the airbag light off.
monkeyposeur Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 The knock sensor is hard to get at on the turbo leggys. I was able to feed the new one through with the bolt and maneuver it with a long screwdriver into place. Glad your problem turned out to be an easy fix and your wheel didn't fall off.
Bdubs Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 Those Solus tires are great, I had a set and they were great in the snow and rain, and lasted a long ass time.
acefighter028 Posted January 27, 2013 Author Posted January 27, 2013 ill have to get a new knock sensor next paycheck. dont have the money right now. Sorry they are no good. Lost my camera and it was getting dark. Took these with my driod razr. Windshield and sunroof leaks
Bdubs Posted January 27, 2013 Posted January 27, 2013 Looks great. Go to this link for some directions on how to cure that leaky sunroof. It's a tedious project but your butt won't be wet after it rains every time so its worth it. http://bbs.legacycentral.org/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=183
monkeyposeur Posted January 27, 2013 Posted January 27, 2013 You can get a knock sensor from eBay for $8.50 shipped.
