Got the fuel trims reset yesterday from Nick (BYT) and he even changed the tune a little and got me a little more POWA!!! It's funny how he can look at all those graphs and say lets change this, now do a pull and viola few more hp's!! Too me it looks like something my son drew up 3 years ago.

Wow is this place dead?? So I put in the stage 2 mounts today, had to take the ******* downpipe off to get the rear bolt out. Wierd thing happened though, when I jacked the motor to line up the rear mount bolt with the new mount a little bit of oil dripped onto the floor from the passenger side. As soon as I saw this i thought OH **** but by that time its to late so I got it all back together and pulled the wheel and inner fender lining out. There was no oil at all on the block and it came from under the motor mount on the body of the car. Why the hell would old oil be in there?? I started the car, reved a little and nothing. No fresh drips or anyting, even while the car was jacked up nothing accept the initial drops.... Checked for cracks and breaks and didn't see anything so I'm just gunna keep my eye on it and places I park to see if it's dripping any.

Oil change? Lol it's coming up soon haven't put the miles on it yet. I tried everything to get that bolt out without taking the dp off but the flex pipe mesh crap is right there and it wouldn't budge. Only took about an hour and a half to do including clean up and oil issue search.

Dont see why the oil change would have anything to do with it cap and filter on the other side of the motor.

because some could have dripped when removing the filter. If not cleaned up it technically could have been "blown" there over time while driving

oh... and that bolt is a b!tch, i used a pair of pliers and kept turning it untill I could get the socket back on it

I guess, it was in the hole under the mount that the damper goes on.

deffinately bitch so I just pulled it off. I had to replace the header to d/p studs anyway. They sent the wrong ones with it then sent me the right ones and I never changed them.

You can see the 2 drip marks on the inner fender and one on the control arm, the puddle looks bigger then it really is. It ran down the garage floor because it's angled.

damn. looks worse than I imagined it. I was thinking it was closer to the other side or even the center.

Is it dry by your valve cover, head gasket or oil pan areas???

Everything was dry accept for 2 tiny drips under the top motor mount. Nothing on the motor had oil on it, like i said i dont know where it came from. I even drove it around base and the is nothing dripping.

Yeah i'm lost as to where it came from. Maybe country might have a clue. If I find anything though it's going uP to him for "warranty" work since they told me it has 3 years left under warranty!!

I wonder if it was oil from when my dip stick tube broke halfway up and it came from wherever it was spraying. I never did find a lot of oil from that and I put about 700 miles on it like that......hmmm
