DatWifey Posted April 20, 2014 Report Share Posted April 20, 2014 People were having issues a few months ago with the newest IE browser when it was still in its beta version..... not sure if that's possibly your issue. You picked up the green 4-door? That thing has been parked a couple houses down from us the past couple months or so. I saw your thread on Wednesday, and noticed the car was gone this morning. 1 Quote Link to comment
uberkevin Posted April 20, 2014 Report Share Posted April 20, 2014 I found out the IE stuff the hard way. kept using it.. Fuck IE. this might help. click that little icon and a small window should pop up. in it, it will say URL.. From PB use the direct link provided by PB.. Quote Link to comment

jeph Posted April 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2014 i tried my other wheels on to see how they fit, diddnt like the (sunk in) look of the skinny mitsubishi wheels in the rear. i actually ended up raising the back about a inch and a half because the car vibrated bad in the rear end around 40mph, and now its gone. 4 Quote Link to comment
jeph Posted April 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2014 i threw on a momo steering wheel today and i put all the automatic kickdown boxes back in. when i got the car everyone was like hey that car is slow as hell and i started looking around to see what was up. the kick down switch on the bedal wasnt functional, and the box that goes on the linkage in the bay was missing, so when you drive before it would just go to like 10mph and be in 3rd already and if you floor it it would stay in 3rd lol! it rips now and runs great. 1 Quote Link to comment

q-tip Posted April 21, 2014 Report Share Posted April 21, 2014 Your vibration at 40mph is the joints in the half shafts, it costs about $40 to get new u-joints and they are fairly easy to replace. Good to see this thing finally in a permanent home 1 Quote Link to comment
banzai510(hainz) Posted April 21, 2014 Report Share Posted April 21, 2014 I like it and the wheels 1 Quote Link to comment
jeph Posted April 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2014 so i jacked up the car today and noticed the rear wheels have like a 1/4 inch of play if you grab left and right side and wiggle it, that means wheel bearings shot right? because the kid i got it from said he replaced them and its quiet when i drive down the road.
