    Need help with aftermarket steering wheel

    I think grant makes an adapter to work with the airbag wheel, I know I've seen it before. I wouldn't really want that generation 1 bag staring at my nose and thumbs anyway. I would give Grant a call.

    Score!

    That sucks Mike, sounds to me like a shotty deal. Well, did he at least give you your deposit back? Sounds like a rust bucket.

    WWYD? WHAT.............would you do?

    IIRC the four cylinder T-5 has different gear ratios to start with, and the input shaft is smaller and not as strong, along with the input bearing. Also, I think they were only rated to about 240 ft/lbs of torque.

    crashed :( possible part out....

    Pop the hood, clear the brush out of the way and take some more pictures. Looks like it was a very clean car, and depending on damages, hopefully to see in some new pictures, could be rebuilt. Take shots of the radiator support, the inner passenger fender and strut tower, and the outer...

    engine doesnt run right

    If your headers are glowing red, then I would say that you are running waaaaaaay lean, and probably need to rejet your carb. I would think start with a good base timing, 6-8*btdc, and start looking at your fuel delivery system. Might just need a carb rebuild?:shrug:

    Father-in-law wants me to find him a vert...

    That is one clean LX! I hate the red interior generally, but damit, that thing is beautiful in and out!! Oh wait, it has gray floormats, that is a deal breaker.

    Exhaust Time!

    Yeah, my buddy put longtubes, o/r x pipe, and mac cat backs on his '05. With some mother thumper cams, that thing sounds awesome. Anyone work with glass packs though?

    Snapped water pump stud, now what?

    I still prefer a 10" pipe wrench over a pair of viceie grippies.

    oh so perty!

    I dunno the classes they are in now, I vaguely follow up on them from time to time. When I was hanging out with them it was about 8-10 years ago, so I know a lot has changed. I stole these from Keith's FB page, but I'm sure you'll recognize them. I hope you have kicked their arse before...

    Exhaust Time!

    Ok everybody, I am looking for opinions on a new cat back system for my '87 LX. I am considering re-doing my exhaust myself, as the intermediate pipe between the passenger side muffler and the h-pipe is totally rotted out. Back in the day, I used to always run glass-packs on my vehicles (yes...

    Snapped water pump stud, now what?

    Damm dude, I just went through this just over a month ago. Exact same issue, but I snapped 2 on my drivers side. I ended up having to pull my timing chain cover off in order to get them out. Here is the link to my thread...

    oh so perty!

    Cool, I used to hang with them when I used to live in Md. I was good friends with Keith, and my hands have been on that silver camaro. Small world, hunh?
