suspension info

Well for a long while my cars suspension has been bouncy and had a weird rattle to it i just assumed it was my stiff ground control coil-over springs 250f 200r after a little inspection it turns out my passenger rear shocked was completely ruined! I ordered up a new one installed it today and man oh man what a nice ride no more bouncing it handles and rides like kyb/FMS combo but aboutas i just 15% stiffer because of my spring rate!! Im debating some kind of motor swap as i just got new front drilled and slotted brakes and i have a b&m short shifter in there its all setup for something im thinking (THis is pertaining to my blue stock car).


new freshness

Finished the sound deadener install on the floor, replaced the old carpet with one in much better shape and patched a hole in the floor I discovered when I pulled out the old carpet. Seats go back in in the morning then I'll tackle the doors.

Got my fesstiva all back together this morning.... clutch is slipping like crazy from all the tranny oil that got on it, i'm hoping after some driving it'll burn off and be good again

Other then that, it's feeling good so far with the new trans in it

Delivered pizza in Chuck last night, about 120 miles worth. Everything was ok except I need to adjust the ignition timing some. Then on the way home it started doing its same thing it did when it was an auto, and issue that hasn't appeared for over two years. It gets mad, and won't rev past about 2500 rpms. Runs fine at those RPMs but you can't rev past it, just falls on its face. Not as big of an issue since its not an auto... but still...

finished up painting the driver side hubcaps.. still need to do the passenger side LOL.. eh maybe in the next couple days, we'll see..

Also just about finished up this mazda, i put a new caliper on and bled out all the brake lines, took it for a couple test drives and it seems to be ok, but i'm driving alone for a couple weeks, it's sat for 3 years so who knows what's gonna happen. Get some radiator fans and i'm gonna cruise in it for a couple weeks while I paint and replace the rear tranny mount on my aspire!

Yeah man. I got to work at 11:00 am and read my pm (which says it was sent at like 10:50 am) and next thing I know he sends me a text saying he was outside by my car! I thought he had teleported or something! He picked up the seats from me and headed towards Mark's place for the roll cage
