    Murphy's 99 Coupe

    There were over 2.6million of those Mercedes made, there are plenty of parts oe and aftermarket lol. I've fallen out of love with the Integra. It was perfect growing up with and for college. I work 6 days a week, 50+ hours, I don't want to spend what little time off I get replacing a head...

    Murphy's 99 Coupe

    So the misfire came back, did a chemical test on the oil and sure enough oil and coolant are mixing. Blown head gasket. So I'm selling the car and getting an 81-85 Mercedes 300 turbo diesel

    starting trouble CANT FIND ANSWER

    They test the battery starter and alternator all with one device at the store. I'd get everything tested at another store. Typically a lead acid battery only lasts 2-5 years. An alternator and a starter usually only go two ways, they either work or they don't. You car wouldn't ever start in the...

    Murphy's 99 Coupe

    It's rough lol. I used boiling water on the door seams after than then on. The damn windscreen has a grapefruit sized fracture on the lower right corner, all of the trim around the windscreen has corroded and I've filled it in with silicon. There's a rusted out hole in the trunk that I cleaned...

    Murphy's 99 Coupe

    I've owned it for 7 years and everything is failing at once and right after I fix it something else breaks. I forgot to add I broke off the door handle on early morning when it was below freezing. The engine sounds like shit and its sluggish and gets poor gas mileage. I suspect it's due to a...

    Murphy's 99 Coupe

    So a lot of shit happened to my car over the past two months. First the lower balljoint failed, fortunately I wasn't on the highway. I spent around a grand on parts and tools replacing my entire front suspension (driver and passenger sides) other than the shocks. Moog lca's, balljoint, and...

    Tracking a leak.. 1997 Integra

    It can either leak from the sunroof or through the edges of the windshield. Put a bead of silicon in both. I put a bead of silicon around my entire windshield after taking the trim off and have had no more leaks.

    New paint job

    Get a sander, mask and prep the surface with 300 grit. Prime and paint with rattle cans. Flat black or plastidip are really your best options if you want to do it yourself cheaply and hide your flaws in the paintwork and body. Or yolo it and use bed armor. I paid $900 for my paint job (which is...

    when I accelerate the wheel pulls me hard to the right and shakes..

    I second Muckman, shaking when you accelerate sounds like a bad axel. Also bad tie rods. Easy stuff to check, jack up the car and look.

    what did you do to your car today?

    I doubt I have the paperwork. I just spent $640 on parts and I still need an ls mesh rim with a drivable tire on it. If anyone is selling one let me know.

    Koni Yellows on stock springs?

    Ok now you guys have me convinced. I'll go with the yellows and ground controls. With my new job I just don't have the extra time to take off the stock springs, clean them, strip them and prep and paint. You guys are so helpful as always I really appreciate it.

    Koni Yellows on stock springs?

    After my first paycheck I'd like to buy a quality coilover setup. I don't want to lower the car at all so I'm deciding between Koni Yellows with stock springs or Yonaka coilovers. I want to keep the ride height stock so these are the two options I've thought of. I have a few questions, first...

    Crossroads... GSR DC2 or y8 EJ8

    If it is really an auto GSR for $2500 get it. I seriously doubt it, especially since he doesn't even show the engine.

    Forever to warm up

    Yeah I changed out my thermostat with a cheap stant from the auto parts store and it didn't work properly at all. Get an oem one or a beck-arnley.

    Went racing and won one lost one

    You're not going to be faster than any GT in a straight line lol. There's always going to be a faster car than you no matter what car you own. I would just do performance enhancing with maintenance work so you're not wasting money.
