No one knows how but apparently all the engine's oil vanished one day. I started getting knocks in the lower mechanics of the engine like the crank on the way home from work. By the time i got home it moved to the upper portion into the head. I was the one that changed the oil prior and I know for s...

Merzbow

Ha, copying their rims. These are a deeper bronze color and with the carbon composite brakes I think they 1-UP'ed Subby (removed)...j/k. If the Veyron is dark dark navy blue with blue front end, it will be his. The only other one in Michigan that I know of is black with a red front end.I asked him a...

Merzbow

Yeah get rid of that dealer logo. I'd have their heads for touching my car with one of those stickers lol.What's with the random Van system? Where di you see that???

Merzbow

Bought time someone sold a Vibe for something with more than 40 horsepower!!I like it

Merzbow

(removed)...if I took my stereo out of the hatch I would be able to beat it from a roll...(removed).I don't know what all he has in there since the last time but I do know for sure he has a new Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera and a Reventon, and a 2009 Mach 1. I can't remember what else he got. I ...

Merzbow

I care, I think they are awesome.I have also seen a bunch of those convertible ones around here. It is a factory option. Either that or we have a bunch of random people that decided to get really expensive custom body work done on the FJ Cruiser of all cars lol.

Merzbow

mmm That's sexy.

Ken got a new car today. Ferrari F430 Scuderia. Here are some pictures of it with my baby in the driveway This thing sounded like pure hell being unleashed. It has one of those by pass valves when you floor it that bypasses the mufflers...it sounds like a race car. The door panels as well as most of...

Merzbow

(removed)! I'm sorry to hear that How many cases and cartons of eggs have you gone through Keith?

Merzbow

LOL, congrats dude. There are a ton of Vibes on the roads now aren't there?I went to a festival last weekend. On the way to get my friend I was riding with 3 Vibes in a group, an '09 and two '05s.On the way to the festival I was riding with a red '04 GT with tint and green grafxwerks overlays.On the...

Merzbow

I think most understand it's not a race car and have already surrendered trying to make it fast. The only other route (with regard to modding) is to be a show car which I think is what we are talking about. I don't race with the Vibe anymore because it's pointless. I'll take out my bike if I want to...

Merzbow

I meant to watch it change but I forgot so the picture shows 100,018.The engine only lasted like 78,000 so this isn't the original engine, but the rest of hte car is still in perfect condition. Proof that cars should last longer than they do, regardless of the nation of origin. The drivers are the d...

Merzbow

That would work for me. I'd hang out with Evo guys. As long as they didn't make fun of us (removed).

Merzbow

The biggest meet in the country used to be held at Joseph Pontiac IN Fenton every year with atleast 40-50 Vibe turnout...that has long since gone into the history books. I would like to assemble a meet though here with all of the new Michigan members. Seems there are more than I thought If everyone ...

Merzbow

HAHA, bad@$$ How's it sound?? Got to be loud as hell. Post a video!I thought those were glasspacks? Or does Cherry bomb make the glasspack? Either way, I'm excited someone finally did something to the new Vibe.

Merzbow

Union Underground is good, I haven't listened to them ina while, I'll h ave to find my cd."War - Low Rider" is mine.

Merzbow

Sweet, hopefully, with as many of the new bodys are out there, we start seeing some mods soon

Merzbow

me either. they are all close

Merzbow

Me too. Let's do it.

Merzbow

Ha there you go

Merzbow

Ten Four. Only problem is that I have to get it from the database in my shop class so I don't know if I can get it on my computer. I'll bring a zip drive and try that

Merzbow

I had this issue when I first got the car in 2002. I can check at school if I can find the TSB for you and I can fax it if you want. Otherwise I think the way they fixed it was twisting the inside of the outlet to kind of tighten it. I tried but got electrocuted (removed)...wise idea right?Take it t...

Merzbow

The Michigan crew died off so we haven't even thought about it in a long time. I would definitely go to one though if one was set up.

Merzbow

Quote, originally posted by Tonyk27 Â».I agree!?

Merzbow

Eh, you'd be surprised...a lot of people DON'T care about them lol...well they care in the sense that they paid money for an expensive investment and don't want it to be wasted but a few people here over time and A LOT of people outside of here wouldn't care if it was a Vibe or a Civic, or a Stratus...

Merzbow

I think after market wheels would be amazing. I have yet to see any on an '09. If you did you'd have to get atleast 19" wheels to make them fit in the wheel wells since they made the front end look so meaty in the new Vibes. Either that or get 18"s and lower it

Merzbow

I agree. The car doesn't have to determine the hardcore factor, it's the drivers and what they think of the car. Vibes wont EVER be fast or race cars sure...that's why no on e here has modded them towards that direction Vibes are however awesome cars to customize for show and stuff like that. If I h...

Merzbow

(removed)...those are my favorite kind of people...even if you both had Ferrari Enzos FXX's they still wouldn't be able to make the connection...

Merzbow

Yeah I never got a wave back so I stopped within the first week or so lol

Merzbow

I think there might have been a few people over in Grand Rapids a while back but they all disappeared just like the other MI members.

Merzbow

Awesome, Datsuns are among my all time favorites! I loove 510s but i haven't seen any in person yet.

Merzbow

I didn't see any lights on it, but I don't think it was driving too far. It was on a VERY busy 8 lane divided road though lol.

Merzbow

Yeah I hear you on that Toolguy. I got fired 2 weekends ago and I'm out of money already so I'm pretty much screwed.

Merzbow

black is such a dark color, it is generally cheaper to repaint onto a lighter color as opposed to painting a dark car a lighter color. Depends on how in depth of a paint job you want to get for it

Merzbow

The one you're thinking of the private company....I forget what it's called. I know what you're talking about though. The one I saw was sponsored by Marlboro. They had a trailer at meijers where they switched drivers at one point when I followed it.

Merzbow

That would be a sharp looking firebird I always wanted to build a rat-rod. Either using the body of a 1938 Ford pickup, a 1930 Ford sedan, or a 1932 Chevy. Such a simple idea and as long as you build it strong and can find a nice big block or something it could be insanely fast I can't wait!

Merzbow

Well, what ever the class was, it resembled an F1 car. The only racing I watch is drag, rally, and Sports Car Racing so I have no idea lol. Thanks for correction though.

Merzbow

Yeah, I was totally surprised (removed)...The Grand Prix was this weekend so I'm assuming that's why it was on the road. Probably just the pit crew screwing around and having some fun lol.I think someone stole my actual camera because I only keep it in my car or by my computer and it's not in either...

Merzbow

I was on the way home from a nice 60 some mile bike ride along the water and I hear this loud engine coming from behind me. Before I can even look, an F1 car FLIES past me. It was awesome and sounded really good lol. I followed it a little and got a video, I was on my bike like I said so excuse the ...

Merzbow

Thanks man. I want to remove the rear quarter window entire and weld a piece of steal of the opening and blend it in real nice so it looks like it was never there. That's if I win the lotto (removed)...or learn how to weld soon.I bought paint for the lower rear bumper but I didn't like how the finis...

Merzbow

haha I think it's pretty obvious, maybe not though lol.

Merzbow

Yes sir Joat, you win the guesses I like the dull look, I didn't want them to look like those plastic covers you can buy. I did paint the little triangular extrusions on each tail light metallic black so i looks pretty cool in the sun, and it changed the shape of the blinker into a more arrow-like s...

Merzbow

Painting the tail lights was easy, just three bolts per light and paint in 2 it 3 coats depending on how dark you want it.

Merzbow

That's fun How much did he pay for the trans? I have a feeling mines gonna go one of these days just because that's my luck lol. I want a manual though when that happens.

Merzbow

No drawbacks. I've never heard of leaking but I filled all the un-used holes with clear silicone just in case. There are 4 "star" bolts and the three white clips which will most likely break. To get the rails off you have to pull up and backwards I believe. If you just pull up, they will p...

Merzbow

Well put.

Merzbow

Wow...how the hell did I miss a Grand Rapids meet!?!?!?!?!? That's like only two hours away from me!!! I'm kinda upset actually...Maybe I should hang out over there more often ....and look at that turnout! That's how our meets used to be a few years ago in Michigan! I'm sad now I personally don't mi...

Merzbow

I would agree with that too but the Dream Cruise pre-cruise started already and right now that stretch of road is the best in the world (removed)...so take that.

Merzbow

(removed) Joatmon...You did get it though: Circuit Break/Circuit Brake is what it represents. Circuit as in circuit racing and also as in electrical circuit(car audio etc.)

Merzbow

Ha, I crashed because of the horrible pot holes in Michigan on an exit ramp. My rear tire kept popping off the ground and didn't make enough contact to slow down in time...the kicker is that the cops gave ma reckless driving ticket because someone called and tol them I was speeding in a construction...
