sweet! but we need more pics

northvibe

did you press the brakes when the accelerator wouldnt let up? the 2009-2010 vibe is under recall in the US. I'm not sure they have make it north america wide, which seems odd as the cobalt/pursuit/g5 power steering was. Is there anyway you can go to the US to have it done, OR go to a toyota dealer? ...

It was a 128MB Nvidia Card so I had them upgrade it to a Asus 512MB card ($99). Much better, but now I have no sound.... I think my speakers were plugged into...

remember rallyracer? I built him a AMD quad core system as he does lots of video editing with adobe products. Its been working great now that he is running win 7 64bit and adobe cs5 is 64bit compatible. I say make sure to get a desktop for home, and theres some new netbooks coming out with dual core...

northvibe

this was most likely the floor mat recall, correct?

northvibe

oh man meet sounds crazy! if I still had the vibe id be all in and follow bluecrush down. have fun you guys!

northvibe

northvibe

per our pm's, I'm excited to see progress. remember to take pics!

northvibe

ya I had oil in my SS's intake and turbo, cleaned it when I put the new intake on. Just looking for a good oil catch can or I'll just clean it every so often. all the oil catch cans I see now dont impress me yet...waiting for a real good one.

northvibe

congrats! haha even got the vibe in on the wedding

northvibe

maybe get 1mpg more....but mostly for not having to replace it.

northvibe

Quote, originally posted by A Psycho Martyr Â»you get my shipping address?Yup I have it written down

northvibe

looks good! I like the TRD ones because its lower but still gives a good height for DD and ride comfort

northvibe

alright, I'm going to make it a point to hit the store today. Ill pm you any updates.

northvibe

awesome! I had mine for a few years then sold it to my sister. Great car to keep in the family

northvibe

K I leave for chicago tonight, but pm me this weekend to remind me and I will help remedy this.

northvibe

you want to solder or glue the mod in?

northvibe

let me see what I can do for ya about that intensafire... You may get a pm from me The no scope! hahha I've used one at the store. you scope up, but the cling on your tv where the gun crosshair is and then unscope and that noscope is now the crosshair to the point the gun shoots at. Works good, can ...

northvibe

the sync broke? or the intensafire flex board broke? I prefer solder but the glue "should" work.

northvibe

oh what happened? did you glue or solder it in? If you press the sync to enable it does it turn on? thats connection point to the sync is the most common to come undone.

northvibe

My friend Coy owns the company, I help and I co-own/created the Gamer Towel product. We JUST got back from E3, where we released a few new products. Did you get the intensafire for the xbox or ps3?

northvibe

correct, the vibe's cd HU wont read rw. I know this for a fact on the 04.

northvibe

Brian is about to start modding? hahha sweet!congrats! no car payment is a happy wallet

northvibe

use NADA for a car value, kbb seems off to me.Vibes are holding their value used very well so $8k doesnt seem bad to me. I sold my 04 to my sister with 75-80k miles on it for $8-9k.

bulb or fuse could be burned out. not sure on what fuse it would use. but many have the shifting light burn out.

northvibe

can anyone recommend a good ac pressure test gauge I can use at home?

northvibe

I've only heard of a small handful of trans issues, My sister has my 04 vibe with 120k? I think now with no trans issues (automatic). Drive it before hand and see how it shifts, ask if it had the trans oil changed etc.

northvibe

oh sweet write up.Thanks for posting your issue and a solution this will for sure help users in the future!

northvibe

the mercury milan actually had a suspension upgrade that was better than the fusion. But with the fords becoming so much nicer, they are cutting into mercury space and the Lincoln is getting bumped up more. With mercury just being rebadged I can see why they are cutting it. Mercury Marauder = BAD **...

northvibe

hahah uh ohh dont ride in my car, its missing some cats

northvibe

what year matrix? the 03's had some cat issues. But theres 2 or 3 so if mine went bad I would just remove the bad one and put a straight pipe part in.The vibe for the most part is very reliable. My 04 was sold to my sister a few years back, has like 110k miles with zero major issues. Just standard m...

northvibe

Alrighty its almost that time again. I'll be flying out to LA next friday for E3 2010! I'll be using twitter again I suppose and trying to update as much as I can.

northvibe

We just released our PS3 version! no solder no glue, just plugs on top of a IC chip.We will be announcing a few more products at E3 2010 this year.

northvibe

Brian why dont you have that intake?

Quote, originally posted by rustysteel Â»Surprising not bad, I think my old civic rolled more. Maybe some TRD springs for the next mod.I havent driven my vibe for idk 3 years almost but ya the springs will help, trd has the least amount of drop but if you live in a area like me its rough a$$ roads s...

northvibe

get engine/trans mounts, traction bars, anything that will stop the engine from moving (which idk I'd recommend for dd'ing...). poly is kind of crap, but you'd want solid mounts if you want no wheel whop and just spin. Are you drag racing on slicks or just street tires?

northvibe

yeah imo a card, visa, ones like that should hold value until the date they expire. Usually they can be "Recharged" ie. more money added as well. I didnt know that about them, I will be careful now.

northvibe

for the ecotec's going twin charge, they have a bypass so after a certain rpm the SC boost isnt used and its just turbo. ZZP makes that kit. There is no good way to cool the SC as it doesnt have it built in. Unless you find a different SC to run and make a modified IM. You could run meth to help coo...

northvibe

if you mean the for sale ad on the site, not many cars are sold on the site as everyone usually already has a vibe. Also modded cars are harder to sell than a stock one.
