  1. Here's the exhaust.. cost me less than $600 for everything....
  2. as above, get new shocks for starters, I run Rancho 5000 series shocks (p/n RS5116 under that was 28-14100). I bought Thorley headers from Summit Racing for $338 and they were the best investment I ever made! They rumble and let the ol vg motor breathe. The VG30 motors are notorious for the manifold studs breaking, and unless you change to heders, the manifold will keep breaking them... I suggest running 2.5" pipe all the way through, with a high flow cat and good muffler. I run a Flowmaster 50 series and it rumbles and sound really good. Not like a ricer or icky farty 6 banger. If you want to improve the looks for little money.. go with the JGC coils in the rear and crank the torsion bars a bit and run 31" tires if you don't have them already. The lift can give up to as much as 3.5" inthe rear, and cost less than $150 including shocks and brand new coils. I prefer (and also damn smog laws) my enclosed K & N filter, but some do run cones, which I think need a few mods and cost a bit more. First and foremost... enjoy your Pathy!!! Here's my pathy with the JGC coils and Ranchos sitting on 31's.. just for ideas.. and another one of the way I had my exhaust made too.
  3. yeah.. turn it into a poll... 1 here but wanting another
  4. Yes.. that was a very good article indeed.... much to be learned there.
  5. I am the only voter to date and I chose non ceramic because ..IMO A) I have non ceramic already (couldn't afford the ceramics) Non ceramics look good (like anyone sees them...) C) The Price D) the price E) well.. you get the idea I think Thorleys are made well enough that they're gunna last long enough for me to get my moneys worth out of them.. hell.. the gas I've saved and the power I've gained I think they've paid for themselves already
  6. luckily my tach works.. cuz my speedo doesn't....
  7. I agee.. I think my valves are in need of some tlc too
  8. :o whoa.. trippy picture
  9. first.. he shows the tires on the rims.. but is only selling the rims.. then he says "all 4" in his ad but shows a picture of all 5...... wtf...
  10. sssh very very interrrrrrresting indeed....... -study-
  11. tell DJD that the natives are getting restless and are wanting pics sly
  12. I agree v6.... you get paid when the bumper is done.... hell.. gives me time to save up! Yeah.. if you're in a rush... you might want to look somewhere else.. if you want affordability with a bit of a wait.. then these are the bumpers for you.
  13. not stupid question. The rpms to motor sound (my speedo has been broke since i bought my pathy) are in sync.. so i know it's not that... but yeah.. i have seen cases where the needles bend and it screws everything up
  14. I will definitely repport.. it is hard because it is random.... sometimes the rpm's fluctuate.. sometimes they just go up and stay up.. but i noticed it did it when i was slowly depressing the clutch coing to a stop.. while shifting on the freeway.. the rpms shot down straight away... is there a sensor of some sort that tells the motor the clutch is being depressed or whut? wondering if there is anytihng connected between the two.... -study-
  15. Don't forget your BFH and a few -alcohol-
  16. :o we could use some of that to make us a NPORA only orv park..... :bow:
  17. welcome to the LSD owners club
  18. she will be getting a thorough chek before her smog test next week.... make sure i leave nothing to chance.. don't need that happening during the low rpm part of the test....
  19. mine seems ok for now. cold start she'll be at around 1200rpm... warm 500 steady.... checked all vaccum lines and connections.. nada amiss....
  20. I wanna see pictures!! -bounce-
  21. :o WOW..... that's some good damage for one day. ... good luck! glad you had fun!
  22. when I get to Oregon.. that's exactly what I'm going to do -bounce-
