what did you do to your s12 today?!

Drove all the way to Rialto then back to Oceanside.

Went to another meet tonight. On the way out of the lot  got flagged down by a guy in an Acura asking if I had any parts for my car. I laughed and said "I wish! Why?" and dude whips out his phone n shows me a pic of a good looking red Mark I hatch. Said he'd just saved it from the crusher for 500 bucks. I really wasn't expecting that. I told him to join up on CS12. Guess we'll see if he does or not.

After that me n my buddy went searching for some decent drift spots around Knoxville. Came out more or less empty handed, but we got a couple good runs in at a few places. He busted up his muffler at Wal Mart, but his s13's a champ. Took some good hits and not a thing is wrong with it. It's one stout single cam, that's for sure.

^ Judge people like what?

Anyways... I got a CB radio today for free. She looks good with the antenna on top. haha

I ordered 2 new rear tires... I'm currently driving on what are basically slicks.

Got some performance style headlights. Looks the same, but I think it's brighter now.

Not.the s12 biut it relates to it cleaned my R200 in prep for somethin nasty

Found a million odds and ends I needed at the parts yard. The big score was a new trunk lid and two e-brake cables that are not seized. Picked up a mint set of notch tails as well.

took the wheels off, now its sitting on top of 2 rims i had sitting outside, shes down for 2 days

It didn't happen today, but I changed the oil before heading up to Rialto.

walked out side sprayed the birdshit off the cover thats on it. then went back inside.

ok i cant lie, i didnt even look at it.

Limped it home. She is having serious suspension issues, I think the steering rack bolts backed out or something she just bounces all over the damn place and shakes when you go above 25. Steering feel is non existent as well..

^check steering rack bolts, mine did same thing when i first drove it, 1 bolt was almost out. drove mine to college, she was checking out the fine ass

Called up T3 and ordered front coil overs...also, i drove the notch to astoria for groceries and ish...no big deal.

changed wires, spark plugs, fuel filter. turned the key and it didn't turn on, the spark plugs on the exhaust side were full of oil.
 checked the firing orders they were all correct. checked for spark in each spark plug, all good except for one ignition coil (can that be the problem)

Looked at it.
Angrily

Drove it, and it almost overheated... Need to inspect what the problem might be.
it does have rusty water inside. I think I need to drain and flush it.

I would refrain from putting hose water in your cooling system.  Mineral deposits do evil things inside a radiator.  Certainly flush it out though.

yep I know that one. I dunno why but it's all rusty water looking inside, hopefully I wont need a power flush but might.

oil change, and drove her around

Replace the Starter. Never doing THAT again...

Jay on 02:30:17 PM / 26-Aug-11?????? Starters on the S12 are easy as hell.

Psh.
Do a starter on a dodge neon once.
Or a volkswagen Jetta once.

Then you'll know they're easy as hell. As even the VG doesn't require you to remove half the engine bay, and half the engine. And remove half the engine from the subframe to lift it just enough.

But, in usual Jay fashion.
The VG Strikes again!

Well when you've only got a pair of vice grips, in that tiny space, the shit starts to hit the ceiling...

starters are easy on VG's

Starters are NOT easy on 4 wheel drive pathfinder's.  Unless you have a 3" body lift.

4 wheel drive is for sissies, those dont count lol. on SE's theyre cake

Peed on rear drivers side tire...

Shes ready for the meet

delivered some tasty chinese food (thanks again to colonel gustard for the maf), then parked her far from any trees in preparation for irene.

yesterday i got new front rotors, wheel bearings, and pads in preparation for the front coil over swap....

bump....

now just waiting for the back springs and sleeves to show up...

I was trying to install my 300zx calipers but someone in this form toll me and sold me, that they where 30mm calipers! but they are not!!!! turbos12 (http://i153.photobucket.com/albums/s236/91integra_bucket/utf-8BSU1BRzA1OTYuanBn.jpg) (http://i153.photobucket.com/albums/s236/91integra_bucket/utf-8BSU1BRzA1OTUuanBn.jpg) thanks alot! turbos12! now my car is down!!!  :glare: any one want to trade 30mm calipersfor 26mm???

chopped up my exhaust on the black car and about to actually finish the bumper.....

Heading to the yard to grab more s12 parts! There are 3 s12's here. 2 notch, 1 Hatch and all the cars are miine. None of them have been touched by anyone but me! :) except one time when a dude came just for one of the distributers. Ive only seen one other person with a s12 in the area and he drives the blue notch with the s13 bumper setup and the sr20 platform ( http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2600921/1984-nissan-200sx ). Dont think he'll be messing with them cars in the yard.

is the notch a MKI?

tie rod end turned out to be shot on the passenger side yesterday when i went to go get the front of the car aligned....now i have to wait until friday or monday for a new one to show up from spokane and then i can get the front aligned....the rear springs and sleeves should be showing up tomorrow. I also talked to a friend of mine who works at another shop in town right next to the gas station i work at and he had a book that listed a rear camber kit for the back of the s12...it also listed the kit for the 280zx, 300zx, and the maxima....so i should hopefully be able to lose some of the camber no problemo after lowering the back down.

Would that be "the gas station" in Seaview or "the gas station" in Long Beach?

there are two in seaview...i work at the texaco...the other station is a shell. My brother works at sids, and his wife works at the pharmacy in downtown. I live behind great northwest credit union, its the brown one north of the go karts...

Looked at her as i drove away in my pathfinder.  dumb cunt.

just kidding, but seriously, she didn't move today.

New FSM's. I needed these bad.
