crazyblackman's thread of shit

postby **Crazyblackman** » 10/11/13 @ 18:55

So this is the general gist of how far ive gotten so far

When i first got him

First week or so, doing fluid changes and what not, can never believe the previous owner they said they changed the break fluid recently

It was shit brown 0__o but any who getting down to it

Brakes went to the floor but thats for another day i drove it like that for a while

A couple days later i cleaned the inside

Then i started to care about my appearance a little bit so. . .

They were leaking. . so i said fuck it and got new ones for the rears altogether

postby **DaleNixon** » 10/11/13 @ 20:16

Excellent work on the avatar!

postby **Crazyblackman** » 10/11/13 @ 20:26

Haha thanks bud I found it In instafame and just laughed figured I would use it for some shit eventually

postby **Crazyblackman** » 10/11/13 @ 20:36

Then i started to do some regular maintenance on the car, small tears and rips and what not but replaced a few things

Once all that was done i got into buying more expensive shit like this. . .

which when they came out looked like this. . .

Which i was happy about of course. . I then bought some brackets and other junk

more updating meow

postby **Crazyblackman** » 10/11/13 @ 20:52

By this time I had collected a few items nothing crazy just some needed things
Like wellllllllll. . .

A little lube te he . .ok seriously meow
i also got me some gorilla snot so I can do my doors, cause the window is pissing me off
As well as a hub for a new wheel, and the brackets I wanted!

So those brackets right CUSTOM FAB work. .not really i guess just some drilling and stuff

Those are the OEM sliders that I just made for the brackets to basically sit on, and I mean it worked perfectly for both sides

Still more and still working right meow!

postby **Crazyblackman** » 10/11/13 @ 21:19

Here is the first seat that got put in after those brackets were made

Sits nice. . I made it one notch lower to for both parts to get a little bit lower

I also got these things, guess i need a horn delete/button huh

Here is my old shift knob as well. . .cant have to many right . i liked it

More to come meow

postby **Crazyblackman** » 10/11/13 @ 21:22

So here was some more stuff
I eventually got my soft top out with a helping hand of course

It looks so clean meow haha

Also got another cat to . . damn cats with your cuteness

meow both together forever

postby **Crazyblackman** » 10/11/13 @ 21:26

Eventually i got around to doing some stuff to like putting the other seat in. . mind you the bolt that was on there was stripped at this point. . pissed as all hell, I take it to my dads to give him a go at it and that failed to

Whats left. .cut the head off . .so it was done and then the bolt just simply twisted out. .previous owner put loctite on the head of the bolt so it wasnt moving basically

After that was off got the 2nd seat in finally
Here is how they are on the seat themselves

side view

postby **Crazyblackman** » 10/11/13 @ 21:30

Here are both seats mounted in the car. . weird pic but i just seriously need a fucking camera that is not my phone at this point

This brings us pretty up to date. . remember how i talked about my window being fucked up welp here comes the latest

postby **Crazyblackman** » 10/11/13 @ 23:08

shit

That's the worst part about it ... I mean they make some pretty cheap brackets honestly .. The only problem is they don't come as one sold piece ... Mine are pretty meaty and love it but they are $99 smackers per set .: once you get that if you want I could help you make your own iph you need some help 8-)

I would say if you go my route $1g is about right for everything .. You buying brackets easy 500 instead of just 200 for brackets and slider

You doing both seats or just one?

postby **phillyb™** » 10/12/13 @ 01:48

i would eventually do both seats.

postby **Crazyblackman** » 10/12/13 @ 14:43

Gotcha ... What's your plan for the brackets though?... Make your own or buy em

postby **Crazyblackman** » 10/13/13 @ 15:50

Ok so its sunday and we may continue to the update that I have done, prob got some more pics around here but you shall see them when I find them or retake pictures

But anywhooooooooooo. . . this was probably like 3 days ago

Fixing my window that was a bitch to roll up and down
Here are the steps if you dont already know

Take the door panel off as you see above, there just push in pieces so its not to hard, if you have a manual window like mine you will get something to get behind the window spinny thing and uclip the piece in there

Once thats out you can start taking the door panel off, I always start from the outside in, once its just flapping in the wind, push up to get it off the door itself, and meow your here

You might have the window vapor barrier still on there, you will need to take that off mine was ripped so i just finished ripping it off, and you can rub the gorilla snot off if you want or leave it on there. .your choice really

Once here you can start unbolting thing. . there are 3 bolts under neither the door to remove the window mechanics, and 5 bolts up top you can remove all of those and set them aside

I have no pics of that idk why ill get them later tonight probably

Once you do that you should be able to slide the window out CAREFULLY!!!
and set it aside

postby **phillyb™** » 10/13/13 @ 16:38

buy em. i can't make shit.
in other words, i don't have the means to make anything. and i'm sure if i did, i'd suck at it. lol

postby **Crazyblackman** » 10/13/13 @ 16:57

You know that's what I thought to before ... Then I just realized its pretty simple making shit just takes time and effort... Don't be a bitch haha

postby **Crazyblackman** » 10/13/13 @ 17:03

once you end up taking the window out successfully you will look at your tracks that the window slides on and see either its all gone . . or its got old shit stuck to it this is what mine looked like on the passenger side

Old yellow caked on lube. . I think it was white at one point so that shows its age. .my driver side was almost empty because i use that more obviously

So you can just scrape all that stuff out and continue on to make it look like this . . .

Make sure to get as much out as possible so you can lay down the good stuff

The other part of the window mechanics had no lube on it at all. .just straight dry

postby **Crazyblackman** » 10/13/13 @ 17:10

Once you get all the old stuff out. .its time for the new stuff. . i just used this after seeing what stoly got as his treatment i felt my car deserved a nice working window as well

Really helped out . .especially when i locked myself out of my car the other day. .that was a PITA but whatever its all good meow

postby **Crazyblackman** » 10/19/13 @ 14:16

So I finally got my horn delete and put it on ASAP since I had shit to do today

Also got a quick release for a good deal and it sit a lot closer... Got more room for my legs again thank god

postby **phillyb™** » 10/19/13 @ 14:39

agreed!
need something between the hub and the wheel it sits way too close and you end up hitting the signals when you fucking turn the wheel.

postby **Crazyblackman** » 10/19/13 @ 14:43

It was weird before I'm never one to complain I much about how thing sit in the first place, but before it was close I just adjusted my hand and were good

I almost forgot that it is like a mile away meow but once again ill just get use to it .. And eventually like it

postby **Crazyblackman** » 10/20/13 @ 21:08

So hopefully soonish ill actual have some coilovers, probably bc is what I'm leaving towArds at the moment

As well as I have a rollbar and I'm being lazy as fuck to put it in

That should also go in soon, maybe even as fast as this coming caturday for the rollbar

postby **phillyb™** » 10/20/13 @ 21:34

caturday! hahahaha. gets me every time.

postby **Crazyblackman** » 10/20/13 @ 23:03

Fuck this autocorrect man ... It happens so often it annoys the piss out of me ... I don't even remember caturday

postby **phillyb™** » 10/20/13 @ 23:27

no caturday is a philter i have in place. i love it.
type the day that comes after friday

postby **Crazyblackman** » 10/21/13 @ 00:24

You fucking bastard ... Your lucky I like your style what else have you filtered

postby **Crazyblackman** » 10/24/13 @ 20:53

So I got tired of the boring gauges... An I went to revlimiters website figured I liked a lot there so it was hard to choose, but I ended up going with something already made, with a little light grey here's how they ended up looking

Getting different lights and ill show the before an after of what they look like with old light and new in about a week

And I'm hopefully getting that damn rollbar in this caturday

postby **Crazyblackman** » 10/24/13 @ 23:58

meow idk if anyone has used one of these things ... They are the tits oil changes have never been easier
As if they weren't already easy right...

postby **phillyb™** » 10/25/13 @ 08:15

explain that...
tube that goes down into the sump and pumps the old oil out?

postby **Crazyblackman** » 10/25/13 @ 11:25

You got it ... I'm pretty sure it's called an oil extractor... Down the dip stick... To the bottom.. Pump 5 times and walk away

Things I enjoy about that
1. No getting under the car
2. Which means no jacks/jack stands
3. No mess, slight drip of oil from philter change
4. Quick and painless

It's about $80 bucks which gives you time to do other shit while that sucks your car dry

postby **phillyb™** » 10/25/13 @ 11:40

i want one.
i can find one at an auto store?
like napa, advanced, etc...?

postby **Crazyblackman** » 10/25/13 @ 11:49

Idk never looked here is how I found mine

Step 1. Google oil extractor
Step 2. Amazon oil extractor will pop up, select that
Step 3. Choose oil extractor that you want, I like mine cause pump is built into it holds a lot of liters, and is on amazon prime mine was the $75 dollar one I believe

postby **phillyb™** » 10/25/13 @ 11:58

do i dare go with the harbor freight choice?

postby **Crazyblackman** » 10/25/13 @ 13:01
