  1. Did you get a print out of all the angles that was done when they got it aligned. I'm asking because if those numbers are correct ...then camber will pull to the most positive camber which would be -1.00. Caster will pull to the least positive. SAI angle (or Included angles) should have been helpful to identify if you have bent or damaged suspension parts. Usually if they give you a print out its about 3 pages of info. I just hope they did the rear alignment first then the front in the proper order. If you want to check the tires...just flip the tire to the other side and see if it pulls left.
  2. Car is still in Maryland right now, but currently pending sale. If the deal fall thru I'll let you guys know. Thanks,
  3. Yes, you are correct, the ABS has been removed and the bypass has been installed...I didn't delete the ABS, the previous owner did.
  4. LOL...yeah the fart can was on there when I got it. I just left it on there, my father-in-law thought it was "tacky" so we was gonna get another one but since he decided to sell it now. There's really no point. No the e brake wont hold the car, it was a lot worse before I replaced the front pads. When I checked out the rear pads I did notice they were low. I didn't spec them or anything but that's what I'm guessing after looking at them. So I'm thinking if the rear pads get replaced then the e brake will have to be adjusted also. Don't worry I'm going to post of the car all washed up and vacuumed out and everything.
  5. Yeah...I should have just waited to wash it first but my father-in-law was taking so long to get back with the keys that I just went ahead and snapped a few shots, but first thing in the morning I'll have the inside and outside cleaned up so you can see it better.
  6. Car has been sold. Thanks guys My Father-in-law wants me to put his car up for sale for him, so I decided to see if any of you guys wants to get it before it goes on ebay since he doesn\'t want to renew tags for the car. We put a rebuilt motor (about 15k on rebuild) in this car about 2 months ago and have been driving it ever since. Car runs strong, turbo spools up fine and holds boost. No leaks other than a cracked thermostat housing that were going to replace. All stock but 2 mods done to it. The entire exhaust systems was removed and used a straight pipe (no cat) and 2 1/2 DP. EGR has been deleted. Both fans come on at 180* or so and the car never sees the half way mark. It always stays cool even in city stop and go. Has never overheated since we had the car. He looking to get $1200 for it. NO major dents on the car at all. Rust is very small spots of the rear fender and underneath with surface rust. Frame was fixed in one spot. All interior lights work fine, was going to relocate the A/C,Heat controller to the lower part but we never finished that as you can see from the pictures. It still works fine and blows hot air, does blow cold air and the A/C works. The car is located here in Germantown, MD now, but I was going to drive it down to South Carolina and park it there till it was sold. If you want the car and your up north some let me know ASAP and I'll keep the car here. Most of the cracked vac. lines have been replaced with the red vac. lines as you can see in the pictures. Car dash has 169k on the od, may have been a southern car. Interior is all cloth and is in pretty good condition both front and rear seats don't have any tears in them. I didn't clean the car when I took the pictures because the keys were with the father in law. Tires have 75% tread left. New front brakes. New fuel pump. Extra set of belt for the car New vac. lines. New thermostat *180 Interior is still clean but 1 small spot on driver side seat. Dime sized whole. 3 wire O2 sensor working. Now the bad: As said before the cracked thermostat housing (top part...NOT intake side) is needed. I'm working on getting one now. Front airdam is cracked, but looks like it could be repaired. see picture Need new rear brakes and E. cable adjusted. Might need new rear struts. Right side is going but would replace both sides. Working on getting stock working radio as of now also. If you have any questions just give me a call and you can come look at it or test drive it. If you need more pics let me know also. It started to get dark and the flash made the grass that was freshly cut hours before look like it was on there for months. Thanks, Ray
  7. Here are the pics....hope they came out OK, I had to use my camera phone and it was raining outside. So I cleaned them up a bit to check for scoring, damage and if any cracks were obvious. I didn't see or feel any grooves in the crank but I'm guessing only a Machinist would be able to really tell if they need to be turned or not. No Cracks in either block. http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c393/UARDUM/IMAGE_00022.jpg Not sure if the Pistons are any good, but I only saw surface rust on the rings and not underneath the piston or rod. http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c393/UARDUM/IMAGE_00023.jpg Looks like lines/grooves in the crank but I felt nothing by hand. http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c393/UARDUM/IMAGE_00025.jpg Other side. http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c393/UARDUM/IMAGE_00026.jpg I'm open to offers also. pistons and rods together for $40 $70 for Crank $70 for Block $50 for head with jet valve (complete with cam) No cracks that I could tell. I'll post pic of it this evening.
  8. my zip code is 20874 and that's $70 just for the bare block. I'm still looking over everything to make sure they are good. I'll post pic tonight if I can cause I only have my camera phone so it might not be high quality. If the crank is good I'll let it go for $70. I'm not trying to make a killing of these parts. The guy I bought the car from said it was a cracked head but it was a bad head gasket. The head is still good. I still have the head with the jet valve still installed also.
  9. I have 2 blocks for sale. One Block still has the piston, Rods and Turbo Crank in it and the other is just bare. Both blocks still look pretty good. Just wanted to see if anyone is interested in anything once I start taking the block apart. I still have the oil filter adapter housing, main caps and oil squirters for both of the blocks. Blocks -$70 I'll post pics and price for the other stuff once I get them apart and check them to make sure they are not damaged. Any interests let me know. Thanks,
  10. Looking for a good WORKING fuel pump amd thermostat housing if possible. I'm currently in SC and could pick it up if its in state. If not, shipping would be fine. If anyone has one just call me as I'm working too much to check PM's quick enough. 443-254-9974 Thanks, Ray Thanks to everyone that helped with my alternator.
  11. Looks like you had some time on your hands. Any reason for you to keep the air divider? Any real gains by keeping it in their even after you polished it out like that? Either way I think you did yourself and your car a big favor. Good Job
