i remember something about barbies hanging from somewhere...i dont know if it was from a tow hook or from the rearview or something. i think tony put something in that jager.

btw: wekson has benen towhooks for sale. who said they were rare?

 

[connies96hatchie]

i think tony put something in that jager.

I don't believe there was anything wrong with the jager. I was pretty quite with my eye issues.

 

[connies96hatchie]

I finally think we solved the overheating problem with the coupe. I went to see Mark and get my radiator switched out today. Hopefully it works. If not, then it can only be the water pump or it's blown.

Oh yeah... It overheated on Sunday on the way back from the races. I was pissed.

 

[Astheros]

how much would mark charge for a complete timing belt kit change.

 

[97GreenEX]

Mark at One6?
I asked him how much for a timing belt change and he said $200.
My jaw dropped.
And my car is currently all apart, waiting for advance auto to get my VX timing belt for my JDM D15B.
Should be back together Saturday afternoon with a new timing belt,hopefully corrected timing, a valve lash adjustment, and a new PCV Valve. Shortly after that, I'm takin it to One6 for Mark and his guys to put on my S2 IM and GSR TB. That kinda thing looks too advanced for me so I'll let them do it lol.

 

[Jeegz]

Advanced? I could do a trottle body and intake manifold in like 3 hours. And my buddy could do a valve lash adjustment in like 3 minutes. Too bad you live in chi town.

 

[97GreenEX]

Lol, I'm still learnin it all.First time's always the hardest right?

 

[Jeegz]

yeah. ive never done a valve adjustment before.

 

[Hecz]

Tony, rock these on scooby!

thats f**king cheap...200 bucks...damm. i want everything done though. water pump. pcv valve, timing belt, anything that can be done while theyre working on the timing.

 

[hooked_on4]

that is dirt cheap, go for it, you can trust him right?

 

[connies96hatchie]

Sadly... I trust Mark, Louis, the asian kid and the black dood (i forgot their names...) with all 3 of my cars. They haven't steered us wrong in the last two years, YET.

 

[97GreenEX]

If you were talking about Mark at One6 yeah he's a great guy. 200 is just for the timing belt though...
Antonio you can do PCV yourself real easy. I'm doin it on Saturday while my car is still in the air.
And Hecz, I'm supposed to pick up some front and rear mudflaps on Saturday...Hehe interested?

 

[Astheros]

all i know is my car is at 115k and i bought it at 100k so i dont know if timimg belt was done. i also know it needs a tuneup.

 

[97GreenEX]

Word, my new motor is supposed to be at like 45k but I'm redoing everything right now.
