I have 3 projects set for this summer.
#1 New/Bigger brakes from the CTS, I just bought V2 front brakes and rotors. #2 Getting another car I bought running, I bought by far the most rare car I will likely ever own. 1 of 800 ever made only 600 in the US. its an Isuzu impulse RS. Its a AWD turbo car. #3 Putting a utility bed on my pickup and redoing the rear springs and maybe swapping out the rear axle. Plus recentering my H1 wheels for the correct offset. |
My Mercedes needs more TLC and my miata that I got to DD while the mercedes was down, is also down now too. Excessive oil consumption, it ate all of its oil without smoke or leaks, have to replace the rod end bearing. Selling both of these after I finish fixing them, too worn out from working on them all the time.
Bought a new loaded Mazda3 to take over all duties First tank, all city, 27mpg. aweeee yeaaahhhhhh |
@blackax, what's cool or unique, other than being rare about the Impulse? Why'd you get it?
@firstshadow, that's interesting our 06' Miata did the same thing. Oile starvation but I never noticed much oil leaking or, smoke, or anything. Wife just pulled in the driveway with a hideous knocking sound and the first thing I checked was the oil, which was bone dry, yet everything looked fine otherwise. Boooh. It had never given us a lick of trouble up til then which was over 100k miles. |
I need to fix the AC in the Durango, it sucks balls when it's in the 90s. I also have a 2" lift for it that I'll be installing soon as well.
The Typhoon will be getting a different turbo and a full exhaust made up. The Jeep is damn near done with the theft repairs. I have brand new locks that just need to be installed and then it's done. |
@Vettezuki
The 1991 impulse RS is very awesome (to isuzu guys) they only made 800 so not alot. It makes ok power 160 from a little 1.6 turbo, doesn't sound like much now but that was alot in 91, also she only weighs in at 2700 pounds, the lightest AWD car that i know of. My plan for her is to take on miata's at places like Adams and such. |

Tracking the impulse? Sounds like a ton of fun!
Think some of the earlier imprezas with awd were under 2700, maybe around 2500? Quote:

I need to redesign my fuel system. Suffering from vapor lock, so need to go with a return type system.
