My problem.
 

I bought a car from Jake Vogel.

It has more than a few problems. Im ready to just drive it off a cliff.

It has boostcreep. im pretty sure its due to the 3 inch turboback.
Its wired for a 1g cam angle sensor. Dont know if that matters much. It runs REALLY rough. The interior is total garbage. Everything unbolted. no stereo. Wiring all hacked to shit. The fusebox rewired to the passenger airbag spot. Battery located to the trunk. Thats just to name some of the problems.

If anyone is interested in helping me fix these for relitavly cheap let me know. Its a bit depressing

and no i wasnt on crack. I rushed into it. I just want to make it run good. and look decent.


feel free to reply

Thanks Nick

Don't listen to Defiant, known idiot / scam artist.

Re: My problem.
 

is he really?

Re: My problem.
 

Biggest idiot on this board if you haven't noticed.

He is obviously an evade account... Trying to be the biggest POS on the board for fun. Just ignore all his post.

If you don't believe me, look through is post history and the responces that follow.

I don't know why the fuck Scheides hasn't perma-banned the account. Makes me think it is someone Scheides knows like AJ pulling a prank that has gone on for WAYYYY too long.

i want to get my car fixed. quit spamming my thread.

Re: My problem.
 

Yay you have a picture of 44 lbs of boost when you're not even moving! Congrats!

Re: My problem.
 

I'm not. What exactly need tlc? Post some pictures.

Re: My problem.
 

Defiant stop spamming my thread. damn


pics of what? the interior? ill get some.

as for everything else, you cant capture boostcreep in a picture. i dont know everything thats wrong with it. Thats why i am asking for help

Re: My problem.
 

Well the battery in the trunk and the fuse box in the passenger airbag spot are not really bad things. I'm sure somebody spent a lotta time rewiring things and if your car is running then at least you know they did it right.

holy shit I just totally forgot what this thread was about after reading all of defiants bs. (scrolls to top to check) lol

It sounds like your only problem is really boost creep. Just get an external wg setup. Unfortunatly, they can be pretty pricey but they are well worth it. Any heavily boosted car with that free flowing exhaust is going to encounter boost creep. I sold a sweet setup last year and I tried telling you guys that you NEED it but noooooo haha.

Anyways, moving on. If your interior is garbage then put it where it should be (in the garbage) and buy some nice new seats if it matters that much to ya. And if you have no sterio then go buy one.

I guess I just don't see how you can be angry about buying this car when the problems were obvious when you got it. Anyways, good luck

Re: My problem.
 

Wow... Just because you got the car from me doesnt mean I did all that shit to it. I replaced the engine harness because of the original one, half of it was missing. The battery was already located in the back. The car had the stock stereo included, all you had to do was put it in. The only other thing I did to it was rip apart the engine and replace every gasket/seal possible, along with all new timing components, ARP head studs and water pump, so I wouldnt have any issues later down the road. The front seats were also replaced seeing it had "racing seats" that I didnt like. But some how you keep blaming me for hacking the car to shit and selling it to you like that when the only things I did to it were to make it better.

I have talked to you how many dozens of times on AIM about this.

If you really want to talk about a shitty deal, what about not transferring the title until MARCH 6th? Getting into a fucking accident on Feb 12th with my name on the car so it comes back to me. We made the deal on January 20th... You were suppose to register the car the next day not a month and a half later. On top of that shit, refuse to get me a duplicate title when the one I had goes through the wash. Thats real nice man. Let alone the car that I got in trade. Do I really even need to go there?

Seriously WTF.

Re: My problem.
 

Port your O2 housing/wastegate. This is a common issue and there are many remedies. Easy enough fix.

Start tracking it down. Check sensors (MAF, etc..). Check fuel, spark, boost leak, timing and so on.

Bolt it all back in. Hook the stereo up or buy a new one. If you can't accomplish that you're in the wrong hobby.

Please elaborate. Are there dangling and loose wires? Things with bad grounds or by "hacked to shit" do you just mean patched for relocations? If there are loose wires track them back and find out what they are for.


The only thing I can really see you needing help with is the running rough, but that would be AFTER you try checking all the basics first.

Re: My problem.
 

Which I have told him 100 times, it probably is getting a random misfire from the 1g CAS. DSMLink would take care of this as he said he was already planning on buying it.

Buy it, if that doesnt solve your issue, go from there. Either that or get a 2g Cam/Crank sensor put in and see if that helps. DSMLink would probably be the same price and you actually would get something out of it if it doesnt fix the problem.

Re: My problem.
 

Jake i am not mad. I am just overwhelmed and im asking for help/advice on this

I am saving for DSMlink. Im just hoping that fixs all my problems

Re: My problem.
 

Sorry to disappoint, but this wackjob is not me. I only have this one screen name.

Re: My problem.
 

Dont you miss the DSM i sold ya? I do.

Megasquirt is also pretty cheap and its a complete standalone.
You would have to make a new wiring harness, but its totally worth it in my opinion.
