InfernalTyrant's EA

by **InfernalTyrant** » January 30th, 2011, 4:44 pm

Oh okay. Looks cool but I like the EA lights more. Thanks though.

by **Commando** » January 30th, 2011, 4:50 pm

No probs, it was worth a go trying to flog off the last of my spares

EA lights/garnishes look better on EAs in my opinion

And then I'd have to get it sprayed.

I was lying in bed last night and remembered there being a tube of touch up paint in the glove box. Went and checked this morning and I was either imagining shit, or I moved it somewhere. I dunno why I'd move it anywhere so I was probably imagining it.

Pulling the neons out tomorrow, giving them to my friend for her birthday. For the lulz. She drives a Suzuki Alto, all the interior lights in there are red. I don't think it would look horrible with the red neons in it, for a girl's car.

by **92EBFAIRMONT** » February 2nd, 2011, 4:51 pm

Thank god for that

by **InfernalTyrant** » February 3rd, 2011, 2:06 pm

Neons are out. Had to leave all the wiring in it for the moment because I need to take out the centre console. I'll do that when I can actually stand.

by **DFP4LTR** » February 3rd, 2011, 4:08 pm

No more neons? But they add like 20kw EACH uleh. Kidding, I hope to see more updates on this thing, I'm glad you're going anti rice :good:

I know right? What kind of blasphemy is this?
New tail lights should be here in a couple of days.

by **InfernalTyrant** » February 4th, 2011, 10:14 am

How much should I be paying for EL door handles?

by **freerider** » February 4th, 2011, 11:18 pm

looks good man ill keep an eye out for this

hope to see more gettin done once the cast comes off.
the ea tail lights are fair different too i tried fitting them on my ed as i broke 1 but they have different drill holes and different plugs but the ea one look sweet anyway they have a slight lip across the garnish the other e series dont.
the paint looks like the same as the old ed xr8 i had i can probably get the paint code for that if u like and see if that close?

by **freerider** » February 4th, 2011, 11:19 pm

now that i take a better look at yours it looks like it has a tinge of blue or something in it.. or is it just dirty?

by **InfernalTyrant** » February 4th, 2011, 11:36 pm

Thanks mate. Yeah, mine's very blue.

It is pretty filthy in them photos though but they're all I've got it. Going to Vic Roads on Monday to get my hazards, gonna get an unregistered vehicle permit as well and Dad's gonna help me get a RWC.
I'm trying to buy some EL door handles atm as well. Also got a sub and amp lined up on the cheap.

by **InfernalTyrant** » February 4th, 2011, 11:42 pm

The car should be pretty clean by next week though. We've got visitors coming, they're lesbians, and I made a bet with them on the grand final and now they have to wash it.

by **huggiebear** » February 5th, 2011, 7:57 am

by **InfernalTyrant** » February 5th, 2011, 9:54 am

Haha, I've seen people advertising them for about $30 each!

by **InfernalTyrant** » February 7th, 2011, 2:50 pm

Got my hazards test done today, got 91%
Also got an unregistered vehicle permit, booked in for my driving test and my tail lights arrived.

by **EFFalcon** » February 7th, 2011, 2:52 pm

if you're not in a hurry, i'll have a set for sale soon, you can have them for $20

by **InfernalTyrant** » February 7th, 2011, 3:13 pm

The door handles? I bought some from eBay.
Ended up costing $30 but it came with other stuff I can sell off.

Hes from morwell

He might be now but he lived in Boolarra with his parents when I bought it off him.

Went to start her up this morning to take her down to Traf for a roadworthy check but it wouldn't start. The battery wasn't working at all, but it was 2 days earlier, it had plenty of charge. Now there's not enough charge to even spark when I shorted it. It won't charge either, which I found really weird. I'll have to pick up a new battery on the weekend.

this happened to me not too long ago.. i brought a battery from bob janes a week later i went away for 2 weeks came back and it was completely dead... they replaced it and said it happened to about 8 batteries they sold in the last month.

by **InfernalTyrant** » February 9th, 2011, 10:09 pm

I thought it was weird that it could be fine one day and dead the next. No lights were left on or anything. I've got it charging I'll have to check it out in the morning.

by **InfernalTyrant** » February 10th, 2011, 5:30 pm

Started fine this morning, dunno what the go was with the battery, something must've been left on or something. It's in Traf at Renford's now.

by **InfernalTyrant** » February 16th, 2011, 7:27 pm

Got my cast off yesterday. Will still be about a week before I can walk apparently.

Going with the old man tomorrow to pick the car up and we're gonna fix whatever needs to be fixed.

by **InfernalTyrant** » February 17th, 2011, 10:02 pm

Had the car at my step brother's garage today. Things they picked up on were:

Won't idle
Battery hold down
Wheels are too big
Window tint is too dark
Number plate lights don't work
Windscreen wipers don't work
Rust in RR wheel arch
All tyres worn on the inside
Noise pollution

Fixed the battery clamp, peeled off the window tint, fixed the number plate lights, fixed the wipers, grinded out the rust and bogged and primed it. We put it up on the hoist and the exhaust and muffler was all cracked and had a few holes in it. Got a new one in and are putting it on tomorrow. Gonna borrow some stockies for the roadworthy and then whack the 18"s back on. Know a bloke who had an EL ECU as well so he's bringing that in for me tomorrow, then it should at least idle alright and be good for the RWC.

My bro knew what colour it was too, it's called "Marine Blue" and the code is P2. No idea why the K is stamped on it, meaning Monza Red. It was clearly never red.

by **freerider** » February 17th, 2011, 10:36 pm

maybe the plates have been swapped??

by **InfernalTyrant** » February 17th, 2011, 10:46 pm

Yeah that's what I was thinking. I don't know any reason why somebody would swap plates other than the car is stolen, though.

by **92EBFAIRMONT** » February 21st, 2011, 10:08 am

Marine blue? I'm not sure but I think my Fairmont's mmarine blue...
Hope it goes alright for RWC!
