Hang in there man... worst comes to worst park it for a while and get a cheap car to get you through...

HISSIN50 · Sep 3, 2007

Werent you just lookin for another car? Or two?

You'll be able to get the mating surfaces spread back out enough to get it sealed. IIRC, some guys even use a gasket at the collector connection.

Hope things work out man. I'd find a real cheap car, or what about a motorcycle?

20 miles... that's a long ways!

Adam95GT · Sep 3, 2007

didnt make it... made it about 3 and sat at a wawa and thought for a few hours... i found a 99 saturn for 1800 origional owner 110k... 5 speed im gonna look at it tmorrow... i also found a 2003 zx5 SVT focus neer by for $4500.... its out of my price range... but i might see what i can get together... my grand parents said i have a bank acount at their house from my great grand father with $1400 in it... she said now is the time i should use it... i have like $800 saved... so thats like $2200 im gonna try to talk that saturn dude down to $1500 he said it has a small miss at idle and probally needs a tune up...

It took me awhile (about 2 months) to do the exhuast on my car and the gears. I had to walk to work(4-5 miles) Took about 1 hour. I looked at it like your getting exercise!. LoL Just wait you'll sort it all out, you have so far.

HISSIN50 · Sep 4, 2007

A good night's sleep and you'll have it whipped. Walkin' into a new pile of car crap isnt a great idea (cheapo cars have lots of issues in general).

Open headers is cool anyhow.

Engel · Sep 4, 2007

your gonna be walking into crap with any 100k+ mile car... I dont see the point of switching unless it was for gas conservation.

if your going to go econ car, go with a honda or toyota.. usually easy to work on and plenty of room in the engine bay to do it

urban96 · Sep 4, 2007

be carefull lookin at the saturn, they have a problem with the heads cracking

check for oil in the coolant

For the first 5 minutes atleast

Good luck Adam.. I know you've been working hard to get the car together and run quicker. I've been lucky that my Dad works from home, so I can generally borrow his truck when I gotta work on my car.

WHAT DID YOU SAY???

The Green GT · Sep 4, 2007

Open headers are like alcohol.

Only fun in in small doses.

Wait.

They are nothing like alcohol.

They are fun for a while though. lol

Adam95GT · Sep 4, 2007
