Auto in my sedan went out today, spent most of the day waiting for a ride home to get a tow rig to get it home and got it home at 8:45 tonight. Turbo wagon time now.

Danny-was it giving signs of going out over last months or outta nowhere?!

Lets see I changed my oil, added Lucas no slip shit to my tranny fluid and drained about 2-3 qts out! My dipstick was double over F with checking the right way.....also changed the fuel filter, the old one didn't have too much crap in it surprisingly

Also installed some kartboy ss and bushings in my buddies new turbo baja

It started making noise yesterday, now it makes all sorts of terrible noises and I have to rev it to almost 4k to get it moving at all.

So before yesterdays noises it wasn't starting to slip or feel sluggish? Or you could give it the beans when you wanted?

It didn't seem any bit slower and it was putting the power down fine. The noise first started while I was on the highway with the cruise on doing about 60.

hit big nw, sold/picked up some parts etc

Installed my front & rear strut tower bars.. I don't think I'll have the front one for very long. I bought a hood for my car but its the 92 year shade silver, not my quicksilver metallic.. Sucks. I'll be tossing in a 3.9 lsd rear differential soon.

Removed the snorkus and planned my coffee cup mod. It's going to be a real clean install. Might be willing to fab up a few if any body is interested.

Hooked up the switch for the amp I don't currently have in the wagon and removed the brake booster vaccum line from the sedan so the breaks are more like rally car brakes.

Put a ten and twelve inch sub in, along with a 1000 watt amp. Audio system is almost complete, just need to ground the last amp and install the new front speakers.
