This topic has already been hashed over a bazillion times before on this site and all over the online auto world. In fact, simple searches turn up thousands of results in the search que on google, many of which have actual oil analysis and composition based information, rather than just a bunch...

Pics would help you out and that link to facebook says it doesn't exist.

They might not be reupholstered, some early (first year) Nissan 300zx's also had similar seats with the numerous sections like that, to which they were later changed for larger pieces. Probably for greater durability because the fail point is usually at the stitching, as seen on the e39a leather...

Quoting 89Patches: Brett is the nut rider!New sig perhaps.....

Wow, did anyone see gstwithpsi's profile. He sure is riding my nuts hard, he has my name in there twice.

Quoting Turbro_Negro: You guys sure sh*t up a thread.op's intentions were clear from the start.

*** You are ignoring this user *** ^

I love the new title, however, I much prefer to think of you guys as demons conjured up by practitioners of the 33rd degree. I love you though, Harry, thank you.Quote:harryverb (used with object), harried, harrying.1.to harass, annoy, or prove a nuisance to by or as if by repeated...

Bunch of crazies.

Great, why don't you ask 4rced4door to post some more old vr4's then. Surely he didn't create this thread in the public section to devote it entirely to one specific VR4.

SEARCH function is located in the menu, top and bottom of the screen. Don't miss it, there are all kinds of fascinating conspiracy "theories" to be solved. A lot happens in three years. Who knows, the car may not even exist anymore. Has anyone seen it recently? I haven't.

Quoting coyotes: wheels are different. :]Those wheels were on the car when I got it.Despite what you've been told, you're not supposed to eat paint chips.

Outwardly the car looks the same as it did when I bought it so I don't know why everyone was making such a fuss about seeing "updated" pics of it.

^ Pretty much.Look, the coroner light isn't even seated all the way in. What a turd.

Why on earth would anyone want to see a conspiracy theorists vehicle that was originally built by someone else?This is quite a bizarre thread.

Quoting coyotes: I just wanna see some updated photos of #3, is that so bad.I tried to post a build thread years ago and it was deleted, so updated pics of 3/1000 will never be posted on this site.

^ If I wanted to read BS I would take you off ignore.

I'm flattered that you guys are so butthurt that you have nothing better to do than talk sh*t to me on your sat night, in the public section no less. It speaks volumes about the community for the lurkers thinking of joining. Stay classy, galantvr4.org.

Quoting 4orced4door: Hahaha that's ridiculous. How it's fallen from grace over the years. Once the calendar star, now it's the tinfoil hat-mobile.You mad, brough? Hey, I just stick to facts based on real life events and people even if the facts don't make everyone feel all cozy.I...

Nice work. This should be a sticky, How to Build a E39A Rally Car.Great reference pictures for the next time someone asks how to remove rear subframe and 4ws.

Did you beat the boosted s2k?

...I will check it in the am.I spoke to a guy at a local store today and he said the angle is the same on the adapter side as the stock fitting, 45*, and that the AN hose end is the 37*.Update. The Loctite worked well, no leaks. Basically I just cleaned the threads with parts cleaner...

No. It's a A340E 4 speed auto on a Lexus.

The ultimate unassuming sleeper huh? Leave all the fire damage visible on the outside but just replace the tail lights.

Thank you both for the info and suggestions, I was unaware of what JIC referred to but had read earlier today about the two different angles.I will bring these two fittings to a local shop and see what they have to say. The main fittings I would like to keep since they are a major pita to...

Much appreciated info, thank you. Here is the adapter fitting I'm using. Hard to tell if the angle is the same. I believe this is an inverted flare, AN on the left, oem piece on the right. Yes I cut that sob off.The AN flare looks more steep, or maybe it's my imagination.

Hey all, I am having some trouble with some AN adapter fittings for auto transmission lines leaking. How on earth do I get these little @!*#!s to seal?I am thinking that the brass fitting I am screwing the AN adapter into threads have been stretched beyond spec. Maybe I just need new brass...

Nice. P1 and 918 Spyder will give you a whooping though. I was shocked to learn those cars run 10 flat at 145 in the 1/4.Your fuel system sounds good, how's your drivetrain?Also, I saw a video of you the other day ripping it up on a bike with the Gvr4 at the end. Looks like you are on your...

Badass manifold but the sheep logo is kinda goofy, but v band is the way to go.I might have missed it but what fuel injectors and pump are you using? And what ems?I can't wait to see some videos of you ripping it up in that car.

One of the cleanest e39a engine bays I've seen, it looks like it could used for oem reference.

Quote: Thank you Wookalar for the link to the measurementsNo problem, Mr. Foster.We have the community and whoever OP of that thread is to really thank, for he did indeed conspire to perform such a task, and share it with his brethren through photographic and electronic documentation...

Simmer down Patches O'canadian, your PM is owned by the same people who gave us all Bieber. Take your gloating and picture games to AG.

If the car has been sitting for years it will need the fuel drained and new gas. If you are anywhere north with moisture, snow or rain there is likely water in the gas.

PS New OEM tensioner and idler pullies while you are in there. Follow the yellow brick road.

Quote: Timing belts, balance belts & water pumpsOh myI haven't tried one but I would trust a gates belt, OEM is not much more though. I put on an hks belt in 2009 and haven't thought of it since. Water pump OEM only, please, thank you.There's no place like home, there's no place like...

I'm not calling dibs however suggesting that the pedal box and HVAC boxes are galant specific and can be refurbished/rebuilt. Access to the hvac system anchor bolts requires dash removal though. I think it's a good idea to keep those pieces out of the crusher if you have the time to pull it all...

Quoting Turbro_Negro: Negro for Admin 2015!!!

Can't really offer advice without seeing it. Maybe a 45 or 90* fitting would work. And/or get poly front and rear mounts to eliminate engine rocking under accel/deccel.

Quoting coyotes: why would you run wires through that when there is a grommet right next to it designed for wires to be run through?There were no wires running through that grommet but in my search for a new part I saw some random threads where people were running wires through there. I'm...

That is so bad ass. Great color combo.In before people complain about the price.

Am I reading that correctly? 101 mph trap vs 134 mph? That's a huge improvement.

I figured that, parts guy who I have gone through for years said it was "obsolete".Whatev, it's not that big a deal, the column is already back in anyways. I will probably put some rtv over it for now until I can source one from a 1g.Thanks for the help to all who responded.

If you do some searching there is a diagram posted here or on the intrawebz showing measurements.Boom, first search I found it.clickclickGotta love the powa of the internet.

Quoting thomcasey: Steering column bootYou guys are awesome, thanks!

Quoting G: What's the part # ?I'm not sure at the moment, I will look in the manual tomorrow.Thanks for the responses, much appreciated.

Yeah pretty much. I have two 92 vehicles that I have been restoring over the last couple years and it can be frustrating when parts are NLA, nor available aftermarket.I see some people cut the steering column grommet so they can run wires through for gauges or stereo stuff but I would advise...

Quoting blacksheep: greddy watch SOLD to Tommyd here. Thanks for the purchase!Damn I was gonna take that watch, never seen one before and it's pretty cool.

Yeah I suppose I can look around for one from a 1g. Gotta love auto manufactures that no longer make parts for their cars.

G, do you have one of these you might want to sell, or can you get one? The rubber boot with the tear in it. Or if anyone else can get it, I'll buy one from you. The dealer is telling me it is obsolete.Thanks!
