well i felt the valve colver and its still hot as hell and the temp gauge is still at like 1/3rd so i'll do it tomorrow. i gotta leave here in 10 min anyway so tomorrow it is. at least i got the oil done i guess....

 

And for today's lesson: Metal absorbs heat! z0mg4wd mang!

 

We need ceramic engines, that'll fix it, haha.

 

Mine doesn't.. but that's cuz I gots a special edition

 

Gas was at 99.3 cents per litre so finally filled up again while its cheap. Never thought I'd say that. Oh yeah and took pic for kansei. lol

 

got tranny fluid changed. i put all 3 qts in but it didnt overflow the tip. didnt yall say to fill til it almost overflows/does overflow?

 

3qts fills it. i did mine with 3 qts of redline mt-90 and it did the same thing. if you stick your finger in the filler hole it should coat the bottom of it (level should be right up to the bottom of the hole).

 

Gator, did you have the car on an incline? Because the case, being level, will hold a little less then the 3 quarts. If it's on an incline, you can dump 3 quarts in and it won't dump any out.

 

Yeah I always just jack the front up to do the gear oil change so that I don't make a mess

 

yea i didnt think about that. sorry so it's all good. it seems easier to get it into gear now. yea i used royal purple too. the specs for it says like 2.9qt i think it is. the gear oil is purple...surprise since its usually a red color, but royal purple= purple...guess it makes sense

 

Their motor oil is also purple.. but the purple in the motor oil goes away veery quickly it seems.

 

no trans fluid filter correct? and does the fluid really make it easier or am i just imagining? the fluid was brown...it def needed to be changed

 

quick question. inside the little felt case that the tire iron is in, there is a long bolt, maybe 5 in or so. does anyone else have one of these in theirs? if so what is it for? the car jack? it looks like it could be another bolt for the front mount, but i doubt it. just curious, i have a floor jack b/c i hate the jack that cars come w/

 

You use that bolt to bolt down the regular tire and rime in the tire well ,the one that holds the donut in the well is to short

 

ooooo. thanks!
