Yeah fella's the Transmission Specialist - Fareed / telephone no. 755-8676
Located - El Dorado right off the Eastern Main road, if you coming form the West its the street on your left, just before Caura Junction by the Supermarket and Marios. If you coming from the East, it's the first street on your right after passing Caura Junction. Its about 3 houses from the main road directly opposite a Church. There is a security firm on the main road opposite the street and security vehicles parked up in parking lot on the same street as the mechanic. Right now i trying to remember the name of the street but it's just slipping my mind at the moment :?

Car looking good Speedist. Saw 2 Lantis in EL DO today, a yellow one and a midnight purple one, first time i saw any in those 2 colours. Never saw any in your shade of blue Speedist so you have a unique one yourself, i know of a sky blue one though, reminds me of the blue Carrera from Fast Five :).

thanks, lostboy. I see a few blue ones so i went wit a darker shade. sweet in d day stealth in the night. bringin it back to life has it's ups and downs but it worth it. A nice set of rims an she orn! :D

@mazdamig: I had a normal 1.5 323F, i bought a v6 front cut from R.F. Autos in bamboo earlier this year, threw out the 1.5 with tran to sell.
Even change the badge on trunklid from '323f' to 'LANTIS'. I still want it manual but as a daily commute, gears isn't fun in traffic.

I have to get back to you on the sway bar.

@wycleft: thanks, man. Interior comin along slowly but i still didn't get the padding by the center console. I still eh get d engine sell yet, many people sayin dey want it but everybody flaking out. calling 3500 neg for it. Take my baby fuh a run yesterday, i was feelin a lil wajang yesterday so i start following behind a guy in BMW 380i from Kaydonna lights heading west.

Yeah, i know i couldn't beat him but i came pretty close and i was bussin every body else tail while trying. Came to Grand Bazaar lights, we both take off, i think he was shocked to see a lantis take off so fast cuz he take awhile to ketch up heading into Aranguez. i love sleepers. hehehe. :twisted:

@lostboys: Dat F sweet. wish i could get someone to do a custom trim for mine. it showin in age.

speedist, you get the exact setup I want... V6 with auto. Like you, daily traffic means going manual isn't an option, for the sake of my left foot. Mind me asking how much it cost you?! PM me if need be

I'm curious, does anyone know who this guy with the black 323f is? Today, i saw him in bamboo, his F sounded like a beast, it pull like one, too. Saw him leaving bobbies as i pull into dollar savers. It had a misfiring system and pull off like it doh weigh nutting. Probably turbo too. I always reachin after he gone! I feelin like ash trying to ketch up to gary here but i damn wish i cud do what he did to his......

lostboy, das a best u post dey.

Gentlemen, on another note, I gone and spend money and bought a lantis shell--have it as a proj to start soon...couldn't help mehself. Want to drop a v6 in it like speedist,lol, but it might end up being a daily driver and ah studyin d gas consumption of the v6.

So i basically have a blank canvas to work with --performance wise and body. I already have some customization ideas but one major idea i have been toying with. You know de dashboard in d lantis is a bit outdated, so i either looking at the very minumum of a dashboard kit but more so ah want to swap out the whole dashboard and put in a newer dashboard from another car..What you guys think, think it possible--a dashboard swap, and if so from which car?

@wycleft: u could go the SR route like spectre did, maybe? my electrician suggested i use red line gas treatment to ease the gas consumption in the v6.

@jeromey: bamboo is the only place and lots of patience. i have my old tail shield but it's got a crack in it, shape like a T, unless u can get someone to do plastic weld repair, u probably won't want it:

@lostboy: good find, i see the tail lights i want for her. i'll get them in time. heheh. :twisted:

BA men, i have a problem: Recently, my car idles strangely at start up. The RPM keeps fluctuating between 1 and 0 constantly, car sounds like it goin to cut off and spitting black smoke.

The other thing is, the problem appears at random, other times it idles normally. I've left her home till i can get to an electrician. I changed oil, spark plugs, air filter, oil filter 2 weeks ago. Can anyone suggest what it might be? Electrical, Brain, Transmission, maybe? I'm at a loss. :?

I'm hoping it's not that! I also earlier overlooked the possibility of the injectors needing cleaning too. I'll just keep her off road till someone can look at it. :?

well put it this way
black smoke is unburnt fuel
so either not enough spark or not enough air
clogged injectors wont black smoke
