Brought the idle down to 750 as per the shop manual (Yes, I have the official GM shop manual, My dad bought it as soon as it was available).The CEL is still on, will be reset Thanksgiving weekend and yer ANOTHER O2 sensor will be going in it. I'm thinking it's getting close to time for a new CAT.On ...

I do love you...but $350... DAAAAAANNNNNNGGGGG.Can't resist, I must still have them!!!

must find dealer front facia!!!

What front bumper is that? I really like it.

I believe the prius also has a roof panel to help ventilate the car and power the AC, not too sure on the AC, but a former co-worker has one and claims the car stays cool in the summer for when he gets into it.

Persephone seems like too much of a cutie patootie for scandal to emerge. Besides that, she loves her some Gambit.

Well, yesterday I got my first CEL with her. P0133 O2 sensor. Still under warranty (Bosch), so, I'll try another one since its free. This will be the fourth sensor in her life since build date with the original lasting longest. In other news, I upped the idle to 1000-1100 rpm to make dead starts eas...

Awesome!!! I can tell you are in love with your car.Gambit is lucky to have you as a driver.

Me too, the manual trans is a bit harder to get going when your throttle is delayed by a second or two. It's hard enough to get rolling since the motor is so weak and pitiful. Then again, I think it's a lot like driving a go-cart once you get moving so that more than makes up for the initial take of...

My wife is sick of hearing about how I always wanted to take an Amtrak ride, like the one out west or the one to Alaska. LOLAnd now, I'm hearing in the news about a resurgence in the rail industry due to the price of fuel. I may soon get that trip on the rails, what an awesome vacation that would be.

Did another tour today. The parts we make for mine dump trucks are HUGE. I'm really excited about all this. Since a little kid, I've loved model trains and loved train rides (what little boy doesn't). Now, I'm actually a part of it. I hope I do good, you get nervous when you are learning a new job.

yep, see that train in your sig... yep.I'll be in propulsion, making parts for the generators and motors that drive these big boys. I'll also be making parts for off highway (mega dumptrucks) and windmills. we took our tour today, you could live in some of these parts... literally. I just wish we co...

eBay or amazon look up pioneer brake bypass. It's a relay that turns on the ground after the unit is turned on via the remote lead. To use the "auto eq" you will also need to wide in a switch that grounds the ebrake while the unit is off for a few minutes. Or temp disconnect the relay. I j...

I started a new chapter in my life today with my new job at GE Transportation. It's a major upgrade in pay, and a SWEET benefits package. I also am now on voluntary overtime. This does, of course, mean mods will come quickly. As well as lots of money to put away for my future.

Got the Sub hooked up. Need to re-run part of the main power wire as it missed the grommet (darn grommet popped out of the hole!!), but, it will do for now until I can get some time to re-do it properly. I must say, it's so loud I actually had to set the bass at a -8 on the headunit, since it contro...

Alternative to harness adapters for the front speakers. I hope the pics work.

Maybe... My old 1975 beetle. My new 1972 beetle will have a 2.3l quad 4 bored stroked and supercharged to 2.6l and 300 hp.

Well, this is a start to my garage. I'll add in some pics of the mods and goodies ASAP.I copied KITT222's garage to get the layout... All the info is mine. Car info: 2004 Pontiac Vibe base 5-Speed Power windows and locks 800 CCA Battery (sweet, thank you for failing old battery LOL) Was previously m...

bump for rim pics in the picture post

Yes, a good cleaning is in order, as my parents feel a car is for getting from point a to point b, very little is done for ride comfort and aesthetics. the dusty dash and dirty floors are a displeasure for sure. I had to call them today about the tint being torn, since they had a lifetime warranty o...

garaged it's whole life, 95% highway miles. it will set outside for a few days until I make it a place in the garage here.

Title is on it's way… picking up the car the 29th. Hopefully I'll get some time to start installing the stereo right away. Mods list is growing too, I'll be looking into a HO alternator and a yellowtop battery now as well.

just to throw this out there...Would the scangauge be a "solution" to this issue?I mean, does it count mileage? If so, with all the other extras it comes with, would it be a good value for a solution.OrWhen the odo stops counting, does the ecu stop counting as well?

I have a 1995 sunfire gt with a HO swap.

J to envy didnt, our good friend google did. I am glad to see fellow j-body owners on here though. I still have mine and still work on it from time to time. The vibe is my new toy and a new adventure. I'm slowing down on my modding, and am starting to focus on the surroundings more than the ride. Wh...

how's it going, name is hotbug1776.I'm an old timer from J-body.org, coming over here in a few weeks when I get my 2004 Vibe. Already cruising the site for goodies and tips. Bought a Pioneer AVH-p4300dvd, to go with my Infinify and JBL stereo stuffs. Looking into Tein-s springs to get her low. Not a...
