That's great news!

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
 

Indeed, I was really bumming about not being able to drive MY car after waiting so long for it, but it should be ready to rock :)

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
 

I'm glad that Danny's an expert. He may be installing mine some day. :score010:

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
 

I vote keep it in the box until you need it :) Yours and Scheides' stock ones seem to work fine.

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
 

Yup, that'd be when he'd install it. :)

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
 

Karma or something I guess, that just sucks so bad dude. Glad you got it fixed and back on the street!

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
 

awesome!!
Congrats on having it, I don't know what that feels like.
Now go have some fun with it.

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
 

New one leaking too now...I hate life

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
 

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
 

Ok...good news...it was leaking at the slave this time, lol. But it was just that the fitting had a loose nut. We tightened that down bleed it a bit more and its all good now :) I was seriously ready to kill myself.

The engagement is so damn high on this thing though. I am not going to mess with it until after the cruise though. I should be good to go.

I am guessing it got jarred loose from the street logging Shane and I were doing. Logs looked great, no knock at all really. Shane just said keep the DD tune on unless you really mean it, lol. He said on the cruise stay with normal tune unless T and C is happening since its too much power for turning.

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
 

Is that a typo or is he suggesting that fuel starvation is a concern without a surge tank? I'm not going to tell you that it surprises me.

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
 

No, I think he was just saying that the car is making too much power for a noob like me in the turns, lol. I would agree with him. He made it sound like only run the high boost in a straight line. But maybe he did just mean he was worried about fuel starvation.

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
 

ROFL. Were you granny shifting instead of double clutching on the road test?

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
 

I was just driving normal, just shifting at 8700 ;)

It was working fine, so Iouno.

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
 

Same thing happened after we removed the pill on rosey's slave cyl and bled the brakes/clutch. All was good but if he'd keep pressure on the clutch (pulled out of my garage and sat there for a min talking to me) it would just bleed pressure out the back side of the banjo bolt. An extra 1/8 turn and topped up the fluid solved that :)

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
 

I got uber scared I had another bad master, but all seems well now. Hopefully someone has a 10mm or 11mm (can't remember) just in case on the cruise, lol. I'll bring my DOT4 too...can't be too careful.

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
 

I will have a full assortment of hand tools as well as an electric impact in my trunk "just in case". I'm sure others will have various tools as well.

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
 

Dude, I don't leave home without the tool box and a 5gal can of E85. If someone has a jack & a set of jack stands then we have anything minor covered.

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
 

I have my tools as well. Not as vast of a collection as Kevin, but it's generally enough for most jobs that don't require specialty stuff.

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
 

Well good to hear. See you guys in the morning.

EDIT:

I also just switched over to AMS oil 10w-40 full synthetic, a special kind that FP recommends.

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
 

Nice, glad to hear it going well.

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
 

The car ran fantastic today and over the whole cruise! The worst problem was the IC pipe popped off half way when Jake and I were doing some T&C...I guess that's easy to do at 37psi :)

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
 

Since this is the life of dave blog, get any action on the cruise?
:hide:

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
 

With Spaz? :sex2:

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
 

No comment, lol.

Despite spaz being my roommate for the cruise, i didnt sleep in his room.

I don't think its a secret where i was but i will not say anymore haha.

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
 

Now this sounds like a story. :D I love stories!! Now you just got me curious...

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
 

details? pics? lol

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
 

Maybe it's a good thing ylime never found a roommate before the cruise.

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
 

Why whatever do you mean sir?

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
 

Because roommates don't like being woken up by creaking from the next bed over?

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
 

No creaking going on in this thread...

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
 

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog
