Why My Car Sucked
1992 Tsi AWD 5 spd
As many of you may know, I bought my third DSM from an infamous soul know as Blake H. He was a DSMstyle regular for some time I guess, and I must say he was a decent guy when I dealy with him. But there was so much stuff wrong with my car I didn't know about until I pulled the head.
1.The front motormount had no bolt in it
2.The knock sensor was exploded
3.Previous owner tried to get broken stud out, and broke a drill bit and/or a Bolt out in the hole and left it
4.Behind one stud there was a whole directly into the head
5.All 8 exhaust valves, and 1 intake valve, were bent
6.Kinda unrelated, but my ghey clutch was toast.
Oddly enough, the pistons tops sure look like Toplines. So that was a nice surprise.
I fixed everything:
head decked, 3 angle valve job, fixed studs and hole, new valves, seals, and guides
new knock sensor
bolt for the mtr mount
coppersprayed 4 layer mitsu metal HG
ARPs
act 2600lb clutch
oh, and Jason R's old setup =)
So yeah, my car rocks now. It's completely different, and I'm happy with it!
