I'm at 53,000 miles and my clutch is definetly towards the end of it's life. It's engaging really high up on the pedal and i can't get it to spin the tires out on launch on 3000+ rpm launches.

My mechanic was the one who mentioned to me that the mounts were going bad when i asked him to check out the car. BTW the warranty did cover them and they were replaced on 10/21. Man! What a difference. It got rid of most of the notchy feeling in the ****fter. No more missing gears or grinding into ...

Hey, Just wondering how all everyone in FLA did with the Hurricane. I live in Miramar and we got hit pretty hard, but we're doing ok. We got our power back on Thursday night.

Hey!!!!!I just posted a meet get together request on Friday and nooooo one has responded. Anyways, the Matrix/vibe Car club of Florida is no more. Chris ( Matrix owner) and I got too busy to run it and then some of the club members up north formed Toyotarevolutions.com. They accept Vibes in their cl...

jcarvibegt

Anybody have any problems with this yet? Apparently mine are starting to go bad. I'm at 51,500 miles. It's the first thing that i'm gonna have to get fixed that isn't just maintenence. Luckily I bought an extended warranty with $0 deductible.

jcarvibegt

If it's not miss firing, it could be a defective fuel pump or dirty fuel line.

jcarvibegt

Man i know i haven't posted a lot recently. But there is absolutely no activity in here. You know what. If any of yall respond and show interest, I'll plan a meet. I don't care where in the state it has to be. We can make a weekend out of it. Come on FLorida Forum, WAKE UP!!!!! [

jcarvibegt

I've had my GT upto 135 in 5th and it was still pulling. My friend with the Trix XRS says he hit 139. From my understanding thou, the base auto Vibe is limited at 110 mph. The manual base Vibes can hit 120.

jcarvibegt

well i've only done the 135 thing once and it was on the way back from Moroso . We had just finished doing the 1/4 mile and watching a whole lotta cars and trucks race. So i was kinda in the mood. Anyways florida is very flat and not a real big problem with animals in the road. Hopefully one day the...

jcarvibegt

LOL Well I just read thru this hole thread from when it started awhile ago. I live in South Florida with lots of heat all year round( no, i don't mean the miami heat, ba dum pish!). And my Vibe is Abyss so it gets really hot inside with the charcoal interior. I've never had any problems with the AC....

jcarvibegt

Dude, i'm very envious! I wish they had a monotone abyss vibe GT moons andtunes availble when i got mine. I got the only GT on the lot with moons and tunes! I had to have the sunroof. Mucho Importante! I need to work on my baby, she's got scratches on her and needs a good Detail!! But your rims are ...

jcarvibegt

I've driven my GT in Miami Rush hour, Fort Lauderdale Rush Hour and Orlando rush hour. And It's not any different from any other manually. 1. Once your used to the GT's Clucth, you can drive it smoothly and easily. 2. The good thing is that since there is so much RPM availible to use, you can stay i...

jcarvibegt

Hey guys. Thanks for your concern. My family and I are doing ok. My Aunts house is on the west side of I-4 by the 436 and most of the damage was on the east side of I-4. We got very lucky! There was still lots of debris everywhere. But at least we had power and water the whole time. Can't say the sa...

jcarvibegt

Dar, Damn Hurricanes! Cause nothing but trouble! So the show has been delayed and will be rescheduled! Hope everybody stays safe from the storm.

jcarvibegt

Hey everyone. I haven't been on in awhile b/c i was working at a summer camp in lake wales. So of course, as soon as i get out of camp and go to orlando to visit my aunt, we get a Cat 4 hurricane. And the eye is supposed to pass right over altamonte springs in couple of hours or so. So wish us good ...

jcarvibegt

LOL Actually i think I-4 sucks in rush hour no matter what direction your going in.

jcarvibegt

Interesting, there was just a report on the news in Orlando about several Shell stations being shut down b/c of sulfur in the gas and that it was damaging peoples fuel gauges. I just saw the report like 2 hours ago!

jcarvibegt

BTW did you know that the crossbars are optional on the 2005 Vibe?!?!?

jcarvibegt

Hey and welcome to Florida !!!!! just a quicky hello b/c I gotta go. But i'll post here later with some info on the club and people in the area. BTW I think the meet is being rescheduled. I'll keep ya posted! - JCPS It'll be nice to hang with another GT Vibe in the area!

jcarvibegt

Wow , everyone's come down really hard on that front end. I don't think it looks that bad. It's almost identical to the GXP grill. The only problem is that they should kept the design exactly like the GXP. They should have changed the lower half where the fog lights are at. Also, i think if they are...

jcarvibegt

Yeah dude, you got the 1zz or 2zz engine? how much boost you usin? I need details man. LOL I really want to get some NOS but am wondering how it will run on the 2zz engine. Any info would be way cool fellow viber!

Hello fellow vibers and matrixixixs owners Juat wanted to let you know that I am still alive. I know i haven't posted in days ( feels likes years!) But things have been very hectic for me.

Anyways, Chris aka Cavemancan, has a Matrix XRS and he has installed the Eibach Sportline springs on his Matrix. If you want, maybe we can help you out install yours. PS Annie, we've just started the M...

I try to wash my car oncee a week, so it keeps the bug juice from eating into the paint. Other than that I haven't really had any problems with the paint. I have a few chips on the hood, but that's from all the highway driving i've done.

jcarvibegt

hey kro, my idea with the road, was to make a more sophisticated Slash. LOL i guess we can do the plain slash,but i was tring to be differrent. PLus it can have many different unknown meanings like the road untaken, or both cars travel on the same road.... lol get the point. I just didn't want it to...
