2006 and ill do that thanks for the feedback and btw great build on this one i wanted to do a saturn ion redline bt im go with balt ss n/a and go sleeper as **** lol
Fresh winter tires arrived for the redline. It needed tires bad and winter is almost here. So why not? I'm doing a lot of driving with the car already.
Thermostat took a ****. My luck. Turned car on today. Nice big ol check engine light. Dang thermostat code followed by a lean code and a weird code known to Redline's about the intake. Oh well getting new thermostat asap and doing it. Keeping my eye on you little redline
This project was more of a headache than anything. The rotors wouldn’t go on. It was a very tight squeeze for the hub to go on. Wheels don’t fit.
Ended up grinding the rotor hole wider. Not much. Grounded the wheel a bit. Was not enough. Ended up adding 10mm spacers on the front. For both sides. C clip clipped off on the driver side axle. Had to get a replacement as it did not want to go together. Raised the car up a bit. No rubbing. ABS is still not on. The rear hubs are lnf and need lsj hubs. Totally forgot to snag them. I’m an idiot.
Small vibes at 80mph. With how much **** I did up front. The small vibes ain’t squat. Like it’s barely noticeable
We had a nice little snow storm. I had to drive the Redline thru it. Let me tell you!!!! This thing is a beast. With the tires being new and this little car being low. It made the drive of 2.5 hours in the storm a breeze. I was doing 75-80 the entire time. Handling it no issues. Def was a fun time. When I got home. They didn’t plow my street. I tested the car there and it was AMAZING!
idk how you can work on a car outside in that weather
I’m used to it actually. I just put on 2 sweaters and a beanie. Then go to town lol. Keep in mind. When it’s weather like this. I charge a premium. Due to weather issues. Even if it’s snowing
Budgetline has been real good to me reliable wise. I needed a bigger work vehicle and well there it is. HHR SS has replaced the Redline as a work vehicle. Redline is sitting at 119k miles and I’m going to drive it 1 more month ish to put just enough miles to do another oil change. She will be going up for sale soon. After I replace the engine harness with a wire tuck harness and doing a sneaky 2.7 pulley mod. Hehe.
