Is there a cork in your exhaust? Sounds like that baby needs a rebuild!


I think my exhaust is bullocks. I have a RB header to put on instead of the stock exhaust cast iron block...and I need to get rid of my most-likely-plugged-up catalytic converted that is not hooked up to the airpump and hasnt been for 5 months. And the HP reading was off the G-tech-like program in my Kenwood cd/mp3/ipod player that I had bought along with the throttle assembly I fucked up upon re-assembly...



The car is sleeping now thank god I'm searching for a garage I can rent so I can properly work on it.

My seat belt light is almost always on. Luckily it doesn't beep though.



The really interesting thing is that now and then when I'm driving I'll notice that both the seat belt light and the charge light are on, but very dimly. However, if the shift up light on the dash comes on, both of the idiot lights go out. Then, as soon as the shift up light goes out again, both the idiot lights come back on. If I hit a hard bump or whack the dash, the charge light will go out and the seat belt light will go on fully.



The front right tire rubs if I have the wheel cranked to the left while backing up, but not while going forward.

Thats exactly what my car does. On all four of your "problems" I just can't stand the annoying beep sound! Does yours beep 5 times and puase and then 5 times then puase and then 5 times until you shut the car off and turn it back on then a couple minutes later does the same thing? I want to rip the little beeper out if I can find it! lol.

My exhaust isn't that bad, but I'm doing the same upgrade since I can't pass aircare with my otherwise pwned stock cats. Plus I need a garage too, god damn Canadian winter. Those shouldn't happen in Vancouver! The car has been flooded and out in the cold for a month and a half now since I can't suffer trying to fix it.
