spdandpwr

both, actually. You guys are a fun group that is, generally, respectful of each other...that is, until ed's mom get involved. I'm surprised Ceb or Drivedata don't lurk the chat threadz

WRECK IT RALPH watch with the wife/gf (warning ur gonna have to tell her who zangief is) or family--- pretty awesome --- guaranteed girl cuddling movie


SKYFALL!!!- watch with your boys and be amazed-- you dont want a girl asking every 5 seconds asking you what the hell is going on


Man with the iron fist--- stream it



....My power died again this weekend had a lot of time on my hands

ssjoeboe9

lol I like my sticker....

A lot of people advertise their engine/ specs

I see why the civic has ruined it for most of you though

Having said that, if you actually study and understand the engineering behind how vtec works a lot of you would be amazed at how awesome it really is.

I hope one day I can design something that creative/ innovative.

Hope you're still enjoying that awesome CHROME theme I made for you ed

The thirst is MAD real haha

what is going on in this thread?

ed_423 controls the crew with an iron fist. he pretty much decides who does and doesnt get into the crew

the rest of us just put the stickers on our windows and try not to get on his bad side :x

This is what I imagine defcon looks like now:

For any of you with M/T I was having the classic 3rd gear "catch" problem (You would think it's in, let out the clutch, grind then realize is wasn't all the way in and then use more force to get it in place). Would happen about 2/10 times while shifting from 2nd to 3rd, enough to notice every time you drove the car. Took it to the stealership and got the upgraded synchromesh fluid and it seems to be transitioning between gears flawlessly now. It's been about 3 days now and no problems.

Thought I would share. YAY to not ripping out my transmission!!

MC MiYoung3269

Wasn't there a thread about this? Maybe you should go post there too lol

iSeeYouTwo

It clearly does exist if you would check my garage

I just has no modz so I don't picture whore it


In other news, might pick up some 19" TE37's for dirt cheap from my buddy who just sold his G35.

I'll save the specs for later...

ssjoeboe9

Yeah, I think it was on the TL side?? Idk I just wanted to reinforce that the best fix was most likely a fluid change for the tranny. Don't care enough to look for the thread.

ed_423

engine and mechanic really interest me lol. sometimes i wonder why im not a mechanical engineer major, dafuq am i doing in biology


go make me a internet explorer theme, internet explorer > every browser!

TSXKid2010

I think there is a thread, maybe he just wanted to remind all of us he has 6MT...

ssjoeboe9

Speaking of themes, the theme I made for you ed has over 1000 users. Does it feel weird that so many people have your car as their background?

Still, the first theme leads with nearly 2000 users.

ed's car is a slutttttttttt

ed_423

LOL really? tbh i never really checked lmao.

whose car was the #1 slut?

KillerG

your mom is about the size of a car and she is a pretty big slut so maybe shes #1 ?

TSXKid2010

I know someone on here who loves posting pics of his car with scantily clad women

Joe Blow, glad that they just poured new fluid than ripping out your gear set.

P.S. did you know what fluid they put in?
to remind you, please change this fluid every 30k, or you'll get the grinding again as the fluid wears/thins

was just gonna say that justin was the one who chimed in on the 3rd gear grinding. happened a lot over in the 3g TL side. after they figured it out justin came rushing to the 2g tsx side to warn us all. justin is azine's hero.

off simon's fb
lol justin you got pulled over for what?

tsx_consultant

Is this covered by warranty? I was at the dealer 1000 miles ago for A1 service and they "suggested" changing the fluid (assholes, I bought the car CPO from them 4000 miles ago). I turned it down, no problems with the tranny other than the occasional third gear issue you described.

8th gen civic meet.
mostly SI's.
cawky sons of guns.
"my SI is faster than your TL"
"are you sure about that?"
"lets go"

40mph roll.
I'm in the correct power band and I punch it. hit 70mph and backed off to let him catch back up.
as I'm decelerating, I see red and blue flashing lights.
"im going to jail." I say to my buddy in the passenger seat.

I pull over, and literally it was a scene from Super Troopers.
"pull the car over."
"ummm, Im already pulled over"

I then proceed to go into a safer location to stop.

"roll your windows down"
my hands are sticking out the window, as Im yelling "THEY ARE DOWN!!!"


LEO proceeds to rip my ass a new one.
"blah blah blah JAIL"

he let me off with a verbal warning only.

justin got trolled by the 8th gen civic crowd. they probably knew the LEO and made a deal with them...

MC MiYoung3269

lol Justin, that was Anna XD

ssjoeboe9

It was the synchromesh. But honestly, that fluid shouldn't wear out for like 150,000 mi. Mt tranny is completely different than auto. The fluid is merely a lubricant unlike the auto that uses the fluid as a viscous clutch. It's not abused and is a completely isolated system. Oh well, it doesn't make sense. Glad it was only the fluid though.

To whoever asked, it wasn't covered under warranty. I tried to argue, but it was a lost cause, kinda like the brakes going bad after 15,000 mi.
