What did you do to the GD Fit today?
#981
Installed the DIY SRI lastnight before heading to work, just in time too! how ever i did cut the hole for the sensor a little too far so it barely reaches, is there an extension i could get or should i just get another piece? (only about 10bucks) Love the result on it thought, and saved about 100bucks from getting a name branded one..My only concern is, i live in CA, will i run into smog check problems?
BTW, my axle back should come in monday. I work that day but got tuse and wend off... so i cant wait to but that in also!
After these two mods, ive gotta save up for some new shoes, theyre almost slicks...
i have the HFP alloy wheels with 205/45/16 Can i get meatier tires? would those last longer?
Thanks for the support FF'ers
i owe it all to you guys!

T can't figure out why the guy wanted to challenge me because I was poking along in the right lane but when he dropped gears and took off I did the same and even though he had a couple of lengths on me when I did I was able to stay on him at partial throttle closing the gap , letting off and closing it again. When all was clear I went around him... When I hit 5th at 7200 RPM he gave up because I was still pulling strong in 5th..... Pleases don't get the idea that I was speeding because that is not characteristic of a 60 year old disabled Marine combat veteran.... KWSC High Boost Kit and a few other after market things I have done have worked out very well for me.
.... I would have love to hear the convesation between him and his bud " this little _ _ _ car I was just play'n around with Clean My Clock Dude!, I don't know what he had in it but dang.....

Texas Coyote - you did us proud!!!!!!!! There is just something about guys and gals that drive those stang! Good for you!
Here is what I did to the GD 3 yesterday. Added trophy # 10 to shelf and meet two Fit owners in Ohio yesterday. Great to tell them about this site and they were so happy with their cars. I posted a thread with some pictures from the show but it has already went to the wayside. Seems to happen alot lately, maybe I am too old to be of any interest anymore.
Anyway here is the picture:
I'll post up some pictures after Eric puts on the Megan exhaust this week or next - can't wait for the final modification to be done. Will hate November to come and going back to stock hood and rims for the winter.

We want to see trophy row . And the paint is perfect! good job.
Red calipers would look really nice with the red body color.

The flywheel is held in place by a nut that threads onto the end of the compressor's shaft. Unfortunately the shaft broke right where the nut goes on, so there's nothing securing my compressor flywheel.
Best case scenario is the shaft can be welded back in place. Worst case scenario is I have to pay roughly $400 through the nose for a new compressor.

Update: Found the reason for it.

Hope that it is the easier fix! I can't even think what it would be like without the AC we have had heat index up to 105 - way too hot!

If your GD's A/C compressor develops a noticeable squeak when you turn on the chill, that's the bearing inside failing. Take that as a slow death knell and a signal to save up the moolah for a new one. I've been through that with my old Honda.
