Zombiegurl81's DA Build

[Zombiegurl81]

Well youd first want to see if you can figure out what the cause for the idle is before replacing the iacv right...

I do have a really good idea on what the problem is, after I got the car back from the fellow that fixed it I mentioned that it was doing that idle bit from time to time. He said to clean it out and if that didn't work then to replace it. I cleaned it and it's in top form now. On a side note though it did take me a bit to realize that he didn't install my spark plug bracket or the clutch cable one either (can't believe I missed this)!

Here are some progress picture of the bonnet I don't have a final mainly because I still have to spray another coat (it looks like rubbish right now)

On a last update I haven't really been able to drive the car because its always had a problem however last night it was in good enough form to let me take it for a late night drive. So I drove GMR. Apparently I started on east fork which i've never driven (i seen why now) and I think it is fronts side the section I came down. The car did well I didn't push it too hard so I did only about 40+ the way round. When I'm more comfortable with it I know it can go much faster there. It was nice to get out and have a bit of fun.

I've been bad and haven't finished the bonnet yet but I plan on working on it tomorrow. I did however pull the JDM side mouldings out of the corner they had been sitting in for the last few months. So those have been installed. My car needed a through cleaning as well so I pulled everything out that didn't belong and vacuumed it and then ran it over to the wash. Upon finishing I discovered that my rear right tail light leaks which made quite the puddle in the trunk (thank goodness I removed the interior back there).

Thank you Zawn! I don't know money's really tight right now. I'm actually looking for a second job, to pay for things. I would like to do the brakes and a few suspension bits that would be good to replace, before I put it on the track. Past experiences.

About your meet I'll try to make it I tend to forget what I've planned until I'm right there so I'll try not to bugger it up.

No problem, I write stuff done to help myself
Always next month too

Sorry I haven't been on much or had much progress I've been dealing with somethings and they are just wearing me out. A quick update though I'm selling the Greddy exhaust it won't fit the car I would have to modify the fuel tank and even then it would be close to the suspension arm. I'm also selling the BBP header I purchased. It's been quite taxing to find a DC2 cross-member and I'm thinking just getting a DA specific one will alleviate the installation and fitment issue.
