Mods getting done...

[Cyrk]

My warranty is not up but I know the manager at the local Isuzu shop and pretty confident that is something where to happen he would hook me up.

Also the lad installing the S/C is an amazing mechanic and he is better than a warranty.

Will going up to the 5psi pulley harm any components? I guess there wouldn't but much more strain than the 4psi pulley... what about the torque converter? I thought it was pretty much maxed with the 4psi pulley?

Cyrk, man your VX is going to be something when finished - I can't wait to hear your reviews after all these mods are done at once. It might be like getting a new car! Hey, what about those wheels? I want yours if you buy the ones off eBay!!

[Cyrk]

Thanks, it is going to be like a whole new VX!!

I have 18x8 Chrome Borbet CW3.

The ones off ebay sold, just going to keep mine till I see something I REALLY Like more than the Borbets.

Oh, I thought you bought the ones that were on eBay - WHENEVER you decide to replace your wheels - I WANT DIBS - I'm calling it now......that means if 2 months from now you decide to sell those rims - I have already called them - it's not the person that responds once you decide to sell them - IT's ME!!!!!:razg2:

Looking at the holes you cut in the cover under the CD player, how did you make enough space to slide in the gauges? I just installed an AutoMeter Pro-Comp Ultralite, Boost and Volt meter in the cover. I had to trim the mounting bolts and insulate the voltmeter posts. I cut off the blue plastic release fingers at the top and carefully pushed each wire aside. With all that, I still cannot push the gauge body full in. Any advice?
The booster meter is electric and re-zeros at each startup. When you turn the key the guage zeros, then when you roll the starter, the circuit is cut until the engine starts. This rushes the second zero and the gauge is inaccurate. I added a diode and a capacitor to keep the gauge powered during the interruption. This isn't working either. A relay with cap is next. I was always looking for 12v, switched 12v, and ground, so I added a short connection strip for each flavor and this also hides in the cover. Lastly, my backup camera and LED switch round out the space available. I will post some pix.

mine are not full body in either... my bud is going to fiberglass something so they will be flush... until then I just painted the backs black to match better.

Will post pics when she is done.
