well, i but in a new engine because a)i did have a spun rod bearing and b) i also had a snapped rod from my rod bearing. i just went with a stock, i might have pics of it later. while trying to get an alignment for my bad camber all around, the shop informs me that my tierod, rotors, and brake pads need replacing. the guy also asked me what kind of engine i had under the hood. im not sure why the hood was open to begin with, though. i ran outside and checked it out with them and then told em i wanted it off the shit and i was out of there. i got a second opinion and actually ive had this shit for awhile, im just an idiot and didnt notice. i got some new rubber btw. . how hard would it be to change the faulty parts out myself? i have experience already, just not sure if i need any particular tools.

they also have some light stress cracks. how long should these last if i dont drive my car too hard?

new rubber :naughty:

one for the road:



thx in advance, guys:thumbup:

 

I have replaced rotors and pads on my Integra and it is really not all that hard. You just need an impact driver to break the screws free on the rotor. Otherwise it is pretty simple to do. I did mine just by looking at it and taking it apart and was able to figure it out.

As for the tie rods I have never done them but it is something I would certainly attempt to do as well.

 

bad camber? it doesn't look like you have any suspension changes. and where's your fender lining?

looks like the previous owner spent all his time trying to make it look like an ITR, instead of keeping it in top shape.. :eh:

 

i think he is the "previous owner spending all time making it look like an itr" lol but i do like how it looks a lot!

 

:stupid:

im not sure but everything is off. i mean i can see the bad camber. thats the weird thing. it isnt lowered. it will be soon though :naughty:

 

my bad, i thought ragerized bought it like that. don't know if that's good or bad then..

 

tie rods are easy, just soke them down with nut buster, mark where the tie rod end is adjusted too on the threads of the tie rod, and spin the tie rod end back to that position, that way you wouldnt have to align it, and by the way light stress cracks wont hurt nothing, matter of fact you might be able to turn them out, if there not already too thin, just dont got from 120 to 0 in 5 seconds.

 

ok, i did buy the car like that. i didnt even think about checking the tierod and rotors. ill probably replace the tie rod sometime this week then.

 

if I remember correctly you had this car for like what? 3-4 months?... that sux

 

2 months. yea.
