    What have you done to your square lately??

    I need to do this. I bet it's never been done. I just recovered my seat, did some more cleaning (and cleaned up my yard from all the crap I had everywhere), and put a final coat of paint on my dash pad.

    Kick Panel Speaker

    Nice, man. I was thinking about putting a couple behind the seat, too. Something slim. I just have the stock speakers in the dash and behind the seat now. And I mean stock stock. There's a ton of dirt in the dash ones and they look like shit to the point where I can't even put it back...

    New Seat Cover

    So I decided to tackle the seat cover this morning (and part of last night). Hog rings are a bitch, and LMC sucks for putting such shitty hog ring pliers in the box. If you do this, I'd suggest getting a decent set. Any set except those, really. Lol I rebuilt the foam using a $6 4 pack of...

    Even back in 90 mine was built in Canada. Same goes for Toyota. I think Hondas might be the "most american" import now. Chryslers are higher than the rest, too, I think.

    Hell no. Thrush welded muffler. Lol.. It actually sounded pretty good for a little guy. I bought my ex a Corolla S back in 2010. She's still driving it. Zero issues. She kept trading in shitty cavaliers when I met her. I put a stop to that shit. Never had to work on her car again.

    Wtf is with the Honda bashing? lol... I loved my 90 Si. Super dependable, fun to drive, super cheap to own, etc. Best little car ever. :D

    Tell me it's a Fiat 500! Or a smart car? It can't be worse than either of those, can it? Funny story about a smart car.....me and my daughter were at the bus stop one morning (she was 6) and a smart car drives by. She stares at it the whole way by, then turns to me and busts out laughing...

    Hello from Wisconsin

    Definitely a good score. It's a running k20, and it's worth more than that. And I'd definitely keep the trans. It's a tough one, and would add to the appeal to me. Big rig style. :D The rims aren't my cup of tea, either, but I don't think they're that bad. It could have come with cheap chrome...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Well, I fixed my door locks, but I've torn even more stuff out of my truck. Hopefully I can piece it all back together. I'm trying like hell to get stuff done today, but pretty slow going. I put a coat of brown paint on the dash pad. It's Rust-Oleum for plastic. We'll see. It's still wet in...

    Need help please

    Yeah, sounds like rear brakes sticking. If it's not just from leaving the old brake on, I wonder if something came apart in there. That's pretty cool, man. Nice job, slaughter. On rears, I usually just snap a cell pic in case I forget (if it's an odd setup), but printing that out would be even...

    Power Door Lock Issues (resolved)

    Anyway, time to run new wire. All I had was 10ga stranded from an old control panel wiring job. And yes, I wire nutted it together. Lol... I may go get some connectors and thinner wire today and do it cleaner, I don't know. But feed some new wire through where the old wire was, connect the...

    Power Door Lock Issues (resolved)

    So I decided there HAS to be a break in the wire between the cab and door. No power, no continuity on EITHER wire (grey or tan). So I cut in to the the rubber piece where the wires run between the door and cab. You've gotta be fucking kidding me. At first I thought I cut them, but nope...

    Power Door Lock Issues (resolved)

    Next, I traced the lock wires further up in the dash. I already had my cluster out, so that made it easy. I still had power at the next harness. From here, the tan and grey wires either go to the top of the dash and across to the passenger door, or straight out the cab wall to the driver's...

    Power Door Lock Issues (resolved)

    Ok, so this was odd. I had posted before about fixing my power windows, but my locks still didn't work and it was driving me nuts. I had no power to the actuators. Now I know why. First I swapped lock switches and got the relay to click. Yay. Still no lock action. So I pulled the relay. The...

    AC compressor Sanden vs R4

    Understood. And yeah, seems like many new parts are junky these days. Lowest chinese bidder,I guess, and I think most Americans are cheap. Lol...

    AC compressor Sanden vs R4

    I'd like to know what the failure rate actually is on r4s. Same with 10 bolts. And 700r4s. Outside looking in, you'd swear half of everything on most squares is pure junk. Heh.
