Pulled the whole interior for cleaning and resale as anything we sell can be used to offset cost of mods.

Puppyyyyyyyyyyyy

Overall good impromptu progress today. Interior is basically stripped, doesn't smell like mouse piss anymore, some good effort put in by Brandon, Matt, myself, but most of all Hailey. Lets get some stuff sold so we can start fixing things!

very good day today... i think first thing we need to fix is that clutch problem... we prob shoiuld drop out the engine and trans together and do the clutch stuff and engine seals at one time... then once its mechanically sound we can focus on cage stuff.. thats just my thought if any other members wanna chime in with what they wre thinking feel free... as of now its only shifts and drives when the clutch wants too

Good job! Looks like you guys got a lot done. I would agree with Brandon and get the clutch issue resolved prior to the cage. I will post the sale thread tomorrow for most of the items.

02-12-2012, 08:41 PM
That's kinda scary cause Matt, Bls, and myself were thinking the same in chat tonight. I'm pretty certain the slave is leaking as we saw the fluid in the bell housing. I agree we should drop the k to do the clutch and seals at the same time. Lets remember the clutch fork the first time, too ;-)

transmaro93
02-12-2012, 08:46 PM
haha no worries.... no clutch fork.. the slave cyl is part of the throwout bearing on those. we should deff put a replacement clutch in there too cause its prob soaked in dot 3 fluid, guess i missed the chat... shoot a text when you guys are chatten about race car ****

Bought a car to race in next years 24hrs LeMons race. There is a team so far that is not all "pals" and yea, we are in the tear down phase. Gonna try to sell as much as the stock interior stuff as we can and then access what needs to be done to make teh car track ready.

I think they were ebony like the interior. A good maglight would beat the dust out of them.

02-15-2012, 09:02 PM
Yeah they are definitely ebony unlike my 95's which were more charcoal I guess. Anyways, Scott has them now! Muahahahha

is the slider adjustable onthe fly? cause adam said his seat is adjustable but it takes removing of bolts and stuff which is no good for driver changes...

I definitely like the seat, thanks for jumping on it BLS!

You guys are nuts, I'd want in but...since people are already doing the build, I'd just be riding coattails. I daily drive a stick (saw the stick driving jokes on the other LeMons thread) and I can't drive an auto anymore without having issues like being unable to get the key out or putting myself through the windshield. :facepalm: Anyway. I looked at doing it. We have a 86 MR2 (the silver one that was at the Chatterbox a year or so ago at the last meet up there) that we paid 350 bucks for. It needs brakes as the calipers locked up and its leaking oil and we can't find the leak. Then I looked at the mods costs...said the hell with it as it would wind up costing 5K. If you guys do get down to NJMP, maybe I'll ride down to watch the hilarity.
