    i have that exact same exhaust setup, it's loudness has been anoying the hell out of me and everyone within 1km of me for about a year now. It LOOKS tight, i love the tip (i have the idenitcal tip & muffler) but to loud, i'm going back to stock as soon as i take a muffler off a parts car.

    You should probably change out your resonator then. Use a Turbo Pack trust me on that one. No need to change the muffler if its still good.

    Well, with the addition of a couple cars being built for the track next year, I have come to the sad desicion to sell the wagonvan. It is just not within my shop budjet to keep it going.

    If anyone is interested my phone number is 603.234.8390

  • mvmmvm Wagonist
    Well if it is sold, I will still be a huge part of this forum. Ill focus more on posting complete engine builds and fabrication of parts. Ill do anything I can at that time to help this site grow.

    Ill also start posting pics of my other cars. :wink:

    Wagon stolen ? WTF

    I filed a police report and am currently calling tow yards to see if they have it. I left it parked on the street last night to make room in the drive way for my 97 Civic Coupe which only has temp plates.

    Good chance that it was just towed, but I dont see why it would of happend.

    This is me ---> :twisted: Im super pissed off !!

    Finaly got the Wagonvan back and unfortunately the opportunity to sell it to SIC944t and others, because of the theft and the time it happend just didnt work out. Unfortunately they stole my tools in the back. :(

    Anyways my brother decided to move back home from Florida to Massachussetts. He asked to buy it yesterday with condtions that I finish what I started but with his funding. I was in complete shock and agreed to terms of the sale.

    Keeping it in the family !!! :wink:

    Ill post some pics ASAP once progress is made.

    hey thats some good news :D
  • mvmmvm Wagonist
    This is also a good thing because now I can start making products for the wagonvan that I know will obviously not be a huge hit on the market, except maybe on this forum. But will allow me to continue my passion.

    :wink:

    well its good to see it wasn't a complete loss, still sucks that it was stolen

    :? Well was driving around for abit today and then the wagonvan stalled in the middle of a busy 5 way intersection. This has never been an issue before today. Horns were blaring, people chucking me the finger, burnouts, and shit like that. I had no chance it to move to the curb at all. I was pretty much stuck there for about a half an hour. Anyways, I called AAA and had it towed it to my shop.

    So far I believe its a vapor lock issue, thats where the heat of the motor burns off the fuel before it enters the cylinder causing a lean condition.
    Or another probablility is that the main relay finaly went not allowing me to restart the car. Hmm, Im abit disturbed by this because I wasnt able to see anything cause it was already dark out when this happend.

    Cant wait for tommorrow !!! This might lead to an unexpected swap !!! I just came across another single slamma too..... :wink:
  • @ries@ries New Wagonist
    wow that's some drama. hope you get it all figured out.
  • HaydzHaydz Moderator
    If its the main fuel relay you won't hear the fuel pump prime or a click from your dash. Sucks to hear that dude.

    Just purchased a 99 DX Single Cam for $125 bucks, very low mileage. I figured while its down I might as well give it some new life and change a few things here and there. I think 286,000 miles is to much of a risk here for a New England winter. Id rather play it safe and prolong the life span of this beast until the B20 is fully built.

    Anyways, after that I went to the shop and it started right up. I was about to trouble shoot everything but then jammed my finger as it started snowing and got bitter cold.

    :wink: Also, my very good buddy Dennis is parting out his RT AWD Wagonvan. He told me he was gonna junk it until I told him about the site.
    Its RED with GRAY interior. Let me know if you guys need anything so I can ask.

    Just bought the wagon back from my brother. I couldnt bare life without it. lol

    Nah, but seriously... I felt incomplete not being able to finish this project. :wink:

    Just an update.. the Wagon will be going for paint next week !!

    Im sticking with the factory White and focusing on bringing back the stock clean look. wink.gif

    Future plans are to rebuild, maybe even to swap that vintage D. Then to drop the bitch with some new sneakers.
  • mvmmvm Wagonist
    Well the Wagon is in good hands, if not the BEST !!

    Going in for a full cosmetic restoration. :D
