    1st brake job

    mine lasted to 115K (kilometers...) (the rears were down to about 1/32 and the fronts were about 40% still) I do alot of engine braking, which is why they lasted a long time.

    I can't believe I did it...

    thanks... Got some good news this time. The car is now payed for!!! The money got wired over to the dealer this morning. It might be on the friday trailer (because 2 cars got stollen from my friend) but realistically it will be on next fridays trailer, so it should be in my...

    Cracked Intake - WITH Aluminum Crossover

    so the plastic part which holds the o rings to the aluminum upper broke? I can say that I have never seen that before, or heard of it either. But I can easily see it happening, because it is still plastic which has coolant running through it...

    I can't believe I did it...

    Well I am paying in the a.m. for the car. so unless someone swoops it up while they are closed it's a done deal... Now I'm getting excited. I just sent an email saying that I am wiring the $$ in the morning so I think I'm good... SO... to curse myself (hopefully not) here are some pics of it...

    I can't believe I did it...

    well plan one didn't turn out... the guy sold it before I had a chance to get the $$ to him... I found another one though that (cross my fingers) I am wiring the $$ to tomorrow morning... It's a 2001 Cobra (black with greyish interior) 74K on it, and they were asking $13,900 but I got it for a...

    I can't believe I did it...

    well I'll have to wait and see if there is a dot on the lower intake... I'm sure I can get the ecm reflashed with the updated tune still though, it will just cost me some $$ now. iirc, it was the intake dipped or honed, ecm reflashed, and the exhaust that was changed was it not? if so...

    I can't believe I did it...

    don't worry, I didn't think that was your intended purpose of the question... I am curious as well, but if it hasn't been performed, I will be modding it soon enough so I won't have to worry about that. :nice:

    I can't believe I did it...

    Well they were asking $11.5K but my friend gets dealership pricing (whatever that is) so he ended up paying about $10K and it ends up being about $3-$4K for all the rest of the taxes and paperwork and such, but still about $10K cheaper then any I have seen in autotrader or just for random sales...
