Sick LS1
 
:nopity:

So sadly among the great photo's and a happy welcome and new member there is more behind the scene than meets the eye

The guy i bought my car off of really screwed me on how bad he abused the engine of my car to the point where it took me an entire year to just get it inspected after nearly 4-5,000$ (cats,cluster unit,trans,airbag issue,new tail lights, new signal markers, new headlights) *tail lights,signal lights had bad water leak*

Anyway now thats in the past we still have some sad engine issues where the car does not run smooth nor sound like its running smooth, at high rpms and high gear the car has a weird rattling noise like a card in a bike spoke but more thick. the engine is misfiring i believe, you can hear a rattle come out of the exhaust after giving it a rev *sigh* here see for your self haha



VVV - the first video is the best of the noise in action BUT you need to turn volume up loud because the noise is hard to hear over the exhaust but you'll hear it best at 13-16seconds into the video its a rattle tick.

ILuvPizzaTimes10 01-08-2012 06:21 PM

Problt spark knock. If it is,stop driving it like that or you will need a new motor soon.

ILuvPizzaTimes10 01-09-2012 01:57 AM

SLP IROC-Z 01-09-2012 04:24 AM

to hard to tell from the video

Ashman333 01-09-2012 05:05 AM

No problem guy's ill work on a better video or something or hopefully catch you at the next meet if i can and im sure someone will be able to tell if somethings up haha as for now it doesn't seem too too serious ill ask around from my local mechanics who ik

DemonWithin99 01-09-2012 09:13 AM

not for nothing dude but Don is your local mechanic... lol

Slowhawk 01-09-2012 12:25 PM

I'm 3 towns from him.. LOL

Funny thing is, people think I'm expensive but have no problem going to a local guy with limited knowledge of the car and throw parts at it. In the end they spend a hell of alot more $$ ussing them instead of just first going to us.

Ashman333 01-09-2012 05:07 PM

Well this is more or less why I am here and joined fellas haha meeting some great people who can very well help and know a lot more about this shit then I - seeing as Don is the go to guy I will head towards that way, i meant local mechanic as is my friends and boss, and pizza sorry i couldn't make it to your party forgot i had company coming over and i didnt want to be rude and not bring anything either

Ive never met Don, but from word of mouth and some internet searching you can verify the fact he knows his shit, and knows it well. Shit, he dosnt work on lt1s and all us lt1 guys want a slowhawk tune haha.

If i had an lsx it wouldnt go in anyones hands but his, or my own. cause if i screw it up i can only be mad at my self, and Don cant mess up, hes the yoda of lsx lol
