QUOTE (turbohcar @ Oct 3 2006, 06:10 AM) I assume that's a 91 VR4? That's what it looked like the last time I saw it anyway. I'll look it up for that and if it's wrong I'll just call them back. that is correct sir. -------------------- The fastest car I own is a minivan....

Advance price is $60 and delay for shipping is 7-14 business days. Let me know ASAP if you want it, I can have them order it without paying for it up front. BTW, that's without my discount.

BTW, that's without my discount. why the delay? As much as I hate to say it, I'll probably end up at autozone, just because they can get it overnight. -------------------- The fastest car I own is a minivan....

The delay is because all our warehouses are out of stock and it's on backorder through the factory. Chances are that it's in one of their warehouses if they can get it that quick. Autozone and Advance share the same company they get their CV shafts from.
My advice, have Autozone overnight it and tell them you want to price match with Advance's shaft at $60. It's a win-win situation for you. EDIT: Just make sure that Autozone looked up the correct part. They're notorious here for handing out the wrong parts. -------------------- "I hear he tunes the space shuttle also...and that thing is fast"

*insert multiple cuss words here*
this project will never end!!! fuel pump housing output line is busted in half... I don't think she's going to make it to vicory day boys.... completion is at least a couple of weeks off, mainly from just tracking down missing parts.

No, actually I was going to say I TOLD YOU NOT TO SELL THE TALON.
But if you insist, if you don't get the 3kGT done by Vicary Day you're a "wuss"! -------------------- "I hear he tunes the space shuttle also...and that thing is fast"

QUOTE (AWD DSM 1 @ Oct 3 2006, 03:04 AM) QUOTE (Turbo Tension @ Oct 2 2006, 08:56 PM) not sure what's been done, but I can show you a few tricks to clean up your engine bay in a way that makes wrenching a hundred times easier. do tell. I just got done doing some clean up on the vaccum lines, what a PITA those are!! Thinking about moving the battery to the back also. tubohcar.... I'd be more than happy to host a get together if it meant getting shamou back on the road. right now I'm in a bit of a money crunch is the biggest problem though. Gotta get this darn mazda sold to finish up things.  You don't need any of the solenoids if you have a boost controller. I kept the fuel pressure one because it does get cold here. That means that the hardlines above the transmission can be pulled off as well as the mess on top of the throttle body. The vacuum tank reserve can be pulled, you don't really need that as driveability is not affected. EGR block-off plates are your friend. Emissions goodbye are your friend. I don't know your turbo setup so I can't advise on that but if I see it I'm sure I could point a few things. -------------------- |

solinoids are gone, save the fuel pressure one also.
What's the vaccum resreve tank? that double cylinderical thing in front of the tranny? EGR blockoffs are also being put on. I'm running the stock 14b's for now. The maze of intercooler piping and radiator hoses had me frustrated last night, I think I got them all hooked up right. Amazingly enough, most of the stuff only fits one way. -------------------- The fastest car I own is a minivan....

Jesus, I thought maybe you upgraded to twin 14b's on the beast! That whale would be rolling!

If you have twin TD05-14Bs on the car right now you have turbos good enough for low 11s and 125mph + traps without working hard. -------------------- |

Air tank is now gone...
I wish I had twin 14b's.... I did some research on it, looks like a lot of work to make them fit. I think I'll stick with my original plan of a pair of 13g's eventually. Right now I just want to get the darn thing running. I think I've got just about everything I need on the way. -------------------- The fastest car I own is a minivan....
