Winter mods 2013/2014

What does everyone have planned for winter mods this year?

Here is my list:
15/16" CE28N wheels with Toyo Proxes RA1's
Replace unknown fuel filter (with hose ends) with FuelLab filter and -6 lines to match the rest of the fuel system
Fix order of pump and filter so the pump pushes through the filter instead of pulling
Install fuel level gauge
Install clam mounted APR wing in place of stock wing on hatch
Corner balance

Maybe:
OMP Superquadro wheel
Real CF roof if I can sell the stock roof and full mohawk roof

Re: Winter mods 2013/2014

I plan on saving money to have a driveshaft built for the truck and buy a new dipstick assembly for the transmission.

For the bike I need the fork seals replaced, front brake recall performed, oil change, and buy a brocks clutch mod. Maybe man up and get a turbo kit for the bike in the spring time

Re: Winter mods 2013/2014

Put motor in the drag r1 so I can drag race next year.

Would like to get an easy pull clutch lever for the new stunt bike. Then general clean up of the wiring and maybe paint it.

Get a trailer hitch for the gto.

Get my fatass back in shape so I can man handle the stunt bike a little better and go faster on the drag bike lol



What color volks you getting Andrew?

Yea, had two r1's for a while then traded for the stunt bike plus some cash to save some money up over the winter. Stunt bike is just a normal bike but with a big crash cage, wheelie bar and other mods to make it easier to do tricks with.

Pretty funny video of me 2nd time out trying to learn slow wheelies:

Flat black should look sweet, especially if you get that carbon fiber roof! Your car is so nice

Re: Winter mods 2013/2014

I don't know what I'll do. Either I'll pick up a shell and start the boosted V8 Datsun project, or, scrap the idea of building another fast car and put money into the Raptor for suspension and performance mods.

Re: Winter mods 2013/2014

Buy new tires come spring. That about sums it up

Oh, I need to replace a corner marker light that burned out and eventually take my car in for the CMC recall.

Re: Winter mods 2013/2014

On the owdee -Timing belt, water pump, thermostat and housing, rear coolant valve replacement, VC gasket, and a bunch of other maintenance, figure out why my power steering started to make a grinding noise at full lock in the next few weeks.

Decide if I want to keep it come spring and replace it with something else. Or get a second summer car.

Re: Winter mods 2013/2014

Well, this winter is going to be a lot of changes for myself:

- New all aluminum exhaust (probably from STM, maybe have MAP build me a custom one) and testpipe.
- MAP rev 3 intake manifold (have already)
- MAP 64mm ported TB (have already)
- Zeitronix E85 ethanol content sensor and display (have already)
- AEM boost, fuel pressure gauges (have already)
- ID 1300cc injectors
- Radium wally 400 surge tank and new wally 255 in fuel tank with necessary lines/mounting
- Full Race IC and charge pipes
- Full Race 7670 EFR T4 TS turbo kit
- girodisc 2pc rotors (have rears already)
- New tunes!

Going to be a long winter, plenty of time to install all this. Most of it will come after tax return time

Not yet, it shipped yesterday, I will post some up when I get it for sure. Took a while as it was their first batch and they had to order replacement seals and what not to make sure it was good to go.
