After looking at the damage, I'm pretty confident that the traction bar snapped and caused the wreck, there is no scrapes or damage on the traction bar that would cause it to be pushed back into the wheel well like that. As far as screwed up parts go, I need a bumper, jdm fog, two piece jdm corner light, fender, traction bar, sway bar bolt. There's a nice little dent in my brand new oil pan from that gold traction bar arm. I have had two people look at the welds and say they didn't penetrate whatsoever. I highly recommend avoiding collective racing traction bars. I am going to talk to Scott about getting a replacement bar or refund so I can go with an ESP.net one. The frame looks pretty straight still so I am pretty hopeful I can repair everything with minimum cost.

Heck yeah that sucks, let us know what happens. There is a place online where you can get Off brand Jdm two piece headlights, but I cant remember the website of the top of my head. they are like 50 bucks tho..

The welds on that thing look like bullshit...unfortunately it's very hard to tell when the whole thing is powdercoated blue.

water pump is on its way out.....dont got the money to fix it until next week....i get to spend a week driving an 85 mercury lynx (ford escort) its hella ghetto....only plus from it all....got time to rip it apart and not have to worry about having her back together right away...(got the short shifter in today )

Wew, good thing they have a bitchilism thread. I got my F22a6 manifold and cam a couple days ago and was very dissapointed! Freakin Torqustr or whoever that sold it to me fuckin took the tb off of it and pretty much had it all taken apart and put it back together. Well when you do this you fuck up the gasgets. So now I need a full IM gasget set and I need to find out how I'm going to replace my tps because I was going to use the new one with the manifold. shit. Because mine is broken, hardcore... and he really fucked me sideways on this one. Meanwhile I guess I'll limp my car around with no tps. It runs like crap and doesn't idle worth anything and makes my new Apexi Neo worthless. OMGWTFBBQsauce. I want my tb like in the picture or I will spam the hell out of him and the rest of his auctions. Bad seller!!!

Here it is... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=300114200669

See the tb???? oh man...

[SMseagren83]

re-calibrate your TPS. and the intake mani gaskets are cheap. only need the 3. maybe 24-30 bucks for all necessary gaskets?


lol @ the ebay link. 10-20 hp over an A1 or A4. ROFL! great marketing skills fo sho. unfortunately since he didnt state that "what u see is what u get" and he didnt list it as "tb,IM & camshaft" he isnt obligated to give you the TB.

shitty situation, sucks that u kinda got shafted. i have an A6 TB you can have..... i think

[maroonaccord2.2]

First thing I did was walk in my door and open a beer, it took me 2 hours to get home.....dammit to hell. I fuckin' hate.....HATE commuting.

[Father Time]

2 hours? Where do you commute from? Damn.

It could of been worse, the beer you opened could have been warm.
