FWIW, I don't have any electrical problems either. My car even has fairly high miles for the year.

and yes i would like to at least have it be reliable for street and track there for looking at upgrading the head internals

I sure hope it didn't take you this long to figure that out noob. I missed tailgating too, truffle shuffle FTMFW!!!

I have done a tone of these boots. I always order the boot kit from VW/Audi. It requires the hub bolt to be replaced, and are a bitch to get out. Tend to need to heat them up with a torch to loosen them a bit. Last set I did ran roughly $350-400. Unless want the axles themselves replaced, then its a little more. Depends on how long it has been driven and if the joints are shot. If it is actually clicking while turning, you will need the joints replaced.

nope, the adjustable cam gear i have is for the z6. I need to match the key offset. the gear was free though otherwise i'd have just bought a y8 one.

thanks guys. now i just need to find a new car or should i say shit box tuner i can work on for free or cheap as hell any help with that. or payments?

I am just puttin this up to see wut I can find out about how hard it would be to replace the valve seals on a b18a1 motor, if anyone can share some knowledge please do or if you know anyone who could do it for cheap thanks.

funny thing is it is a afi ramhorn. pretty standard manifold. so i think this guy is smoking crack, or something is up

I had this happen once...I JB welded the threads on the hose and just twisted it as hard as I could. It worked.

So i set the timing to top dead center where it is supposed to be and i give it a little gas and when it goes back to idle the timing has changed and is now idling faster. If i tap the distributor it goes back to normal. There seems to be a loose fit where the distributor goes into the bottom plate or something... My neighbor says this plate is probably just worn out and needs to be replaced. Any ideas?

...while your at it, top end kit?

Got her goin but she burns a ton of oil. Compression test was 140 160 140 140 as if you are lookin at the motor.... So idk wtf.... Maybe it just joined the mosquito control group like most hondas....

I know from experience to stay away from tranz auto or whatever that place is called. After they rebuilt my transmission it kept leaking and they kept saying they fixed it but never did, when I had to take my transmission apart in auto class I found out they stripped the threads on my case, and thats where it was leaking from, I had to put a helicoil in it. And there was a piece of my 2nd gear syncro nicely placed in between the case also. Oh and thanks guys for the recommendations. I know who to call now.

did u ever try a flush and filter change? is the fluid full when it does this?

Thanks, if mine doesn't show up I'll take you up on that.
