  1. Or, if you want to half-ass it like I did, you can shave the fan blades down a bit until they clear. Not saying it's the right way, but it works!
  2. I enjoy my Kooglewerks cup holders very much.
  3. If I'm reading this right, it shouldn't be an issue. Are you replacing the boots as well? If so, I don't see how it's feasible to leave the inner grease cap? This video was very helpful when I rebuilt mine:
  4. Wasn't sure about adding a sticker on the car, but it's for a good cause! The Manual Gearbox Preservation Society - Home TMGPS.ORG
  5. What kind of noisy? Grinding, whining, buzzing? You sure it's your CSB?
  6. I had a similar situation when I switched to a Blunt high temp rad. I ended up shaving the fan blades slightly, without any other issues.
  7. Agreed! Gotta stick it on the rear bumper too. Or give it the BaT treatment; cabin mounted GoPro with external mic at the exhaust.
  8. Check your rear subframe to body support bracket. Official part name is a 'push rod', over time those can crack and fail and eventually the bracket contacts the frame rail, causing a buzz. ask me how I know.
  9. Any reason these wouldn't fit a non tii?
  10. ECS tuning sells them. It won't let me post the link for some reason - $67 Just make sure the style is correct.
  11. I just had a similar experience with a shop in San Diego. I've got either bad valve guides/seals or bad rings. "$15,000 for a full rebuild, we won't do valve guides/seals only" - Pass.
  12. I think he means "overcast".
  13. Wow....these updates are the best part of my day.
  14. You may want to consider a 150psi gauge. Depending on where you live, you could peg the gauge on a cold morning. Edit - This is the oil pressure sender I used, benefit is that it also keeps the functionality of the oil light intact. Oil Pressure - VDO-350108
  15. Resurrecting this one, still hunting for a 380mm Petri!
  16. FWIW - I had a similar issue, 3:00 under normal driving conditions, but hill climbing and freeway driving I was in the 1:00/2:00 range. After replacing the t-stat to no avail, I ended up replacing the rad, which solved the issue. Like SOM said, could just need a flush.
  17. If you have a bench vise, your should be able to stick the pedal in there and bend it back.
  18. When GME goes to the moon, I'll be reaching out to you guys. Amazing stuff, truly impressive.
  19. What condition is your slave in? I had the same issue when I did my MC, and the increased pressure of the new MC caused the slave to fail. Replaced the slave, bled the system and everything worked fine.
