    What in the world is plastidipped?
  • rubberized paint, comes in a rattle can, zero prep other then cleaning, can peel off if you don't like it or it starts looking bad, get a scratch you can just and another light coat over that area and it will blend in...

    it's addicting!! i am on my third can....

    what cup holder setup is that??..i hate that i dont have any cup holders haha
  • from autozone, i had to cut a lot of the front off(see below) and a hole for the shifter.
    the console thing originally had the cd tray in the rear, cupholders middle and in front was a little storage thing for random crap, then coin holders to the left of that.
    i had to cut down the walls of the front storage thing and all the coin things except the 25c one to get it to fit under the dash.

    my droid fits perfectly between the cupholders, storage thing, and the dash.

    i have my entire lower center console out and awaiting plastidip(maybe bondo too). maybe tonight, maybe when i wake up
  • looks a lot better, the crack isn't a 1" gap and the cupholder blends in better
    after armor all

    note: front storage thing is still wet in the picture because i layed a fat(3 times thicker then normal) coat down to see what would happen, it dried and leveled out perfectly somehow

    such a dirty little slut.... wagon thing

  • changed my oil and cleaned the engine bay some.. also found out the wire for my o2 sensor is broke, which would explain why it would idle weird sometimes(it always idles high but sometimes it will do that rev up, rev down stuff)...

    940.jpg
  • got that o2 sensor wired up, learned to solder and got a new keychain
    sadly the idle problem is still there

  • plastidipped the steering wheel "H"

    bigger rotors and calipers then my car

    2009 brabus. not a bad car at all, interior quality is extremely high(way nicer then any newer or luxury car i've been in), more legroom then a 93-01 impreza and about the same headroom.
    the slushbox is a total POS though.... vrrrrrrr-push shifter-rrrrm-finally shifts.
    gotta love mitsu power
    only 1000 of these brabus coupes were imported

    sucks that i'm not aloud to drive any of the demos he takes though. insurance.....
    if i could afford one i would rock it even with the little 70hp non turbo 3 cylinder...

    my 6-8month old battery is dead beyond charging... push starting it till i get a new one.... f*ck walmart batteries
    Walmart has a 12 month warranty on batteries... Just take it back and exchange it...
  • only with the receipt....
    i left it on a different charger overnight and it works now. i guess that means my charger is dead not the battery.
    i think it the battery died because i let it idle for 10 minutes with the lights a and system on the night before and the alternator said "f*ck that, i'm to lazy to charge it at ~1000rpm"
  • today i got my deck-less system all setup, sounds good until the volume where my door speakers start saying "*pop*this amp is to powerful*pop*"
    i can't wait until i get a EQ in there. and a legit holder for my ipod, not packaging tape

    Try to adjust the idle screw,little by little. Mine did that weird idle thing on my eg and took to someone and they did that and fixed, Got the motor put back together in my wagon and wierd idle thing and I adjusted the screw until it stopped. You just may have to adjust down-to left or up- to right. Mine was set to high.
  • TY, i'll try that after i put gas in it tomorrow... my gas gauge is just chilling down in red so i don't trust it

    Man I wish I could pickup one up that is that clean for that price 1000 bucks for cancer laden around me

    Just go in small incremints. Excuse the spelling. Also drive down the road after each try. Or really warmed up about 800-850 @ idle is good.
  • got the idle down to 900rpm, at operating temp, system playing at normal volume.
    i might go lower.

    anybody happen to know a company that makes a shifter extender with a m10x1.5 female end and m10x1.25 male end? about 4-6" tall would be nice

    Hows the idle? Did it work?
  • a lot better, it still does the rev up-down thing every once in a while. i think i need to clean the idle control valve or something.
  • made a block off panel for the empty DIN

    then got some velcro set up for the ipod, way better then packing tape
