No worries, I will bring it by whenever you have some time to kill... and to sweeten the deal I will bribe you with coffee

I guess you are not in for a "revived" meet this Sunday then either

Mr_ET · #**1302** (**permalink**) 05-01-2008, 05:50 PM

Moving fairly soon then!

I am also busy all day Saturday, sorry buddy

Maybe call us the following Saturday and if Justin's install goes well we could have a look at yours.

HA!

Sunday I'm in the area and was planning to meet but the weather and lack of people now suggest we move it to the end of the month.

We really need more people from Calgary in FF, our group is tiny we barley get more than 4 fits at a meet anymore

I vote for MR_ET & Illusive pumping Beyond for more members

Mr_ET · #**1306** (**permalink**) 05-02-2008, 02:07 PM

I know of only 1 guy on Beyond who has a NHBP LX like mine with rota slips, a drop and a spoon axle back.

we should just tag along with the Beyond meets on Wednesday nights at the Chinook. They wouldn't all be Fits but we'd have more enthusiasts un one place :P

Is that Terrance by chance?

Mr_ET · #**1308** (**permalink**) 05-02-2008, 02:20 PM

No idea his name is Skyline something on Beyond. I have never spoken to him

Illusive · #**1309** (**permalink**) 05-02-2008, 02:47 PM

Yeah that is Terrance. I think he is getting rid of his fit shortly, he's got something about an 08 WRX in his MSN name.

Sugarphreak · #**1310** (**permalink**) 05-02-2008, 03:56 PM

It is funny how many people are torn between getting a Fit or a WRX. I almost bought a Saab 92X Turbo myself over the Fit. In the end it was the premium gas and insurance costs that won me over, that and the idea that an economy car could actually be pretty nice inside

Seems like a lot of people are trading in the Fit lately on the forums.

Sugarphreak · #**1311** (**permalink**) 06-01-2008, 09:16 PM

YO!!!

Gotta keep the old Calgary Super-Thread alive!

Anybody have some time to help me with a pulley kit install maybe next week?

Illusive · #**1312** (**permalink**) 06-01-2008, 11:13 PM

lol I think we are pro star at doing that now haha! A lift would be best. To get access, you need to remove that black plastic panel underneath the engine. Also will need to remove passenger wheel. I'll see if I have time, my Fit needs to undergo some changes as well.

JDMish · #**1313** (**permalink**) 06-02-2008, 11:51 AM

I'll try and free up some time on the weekend for you Nick, but at the present time i don't have the hours available and i have a few things myself to get done.

Sugarphreak · #**1314** (**permalink**) 06-02-2008, 12:34 PM

I heard the pulley is a pain to take off because it is so tight; needs a high power air impact guns apparently. Electric ones and breaker bars may not be enough

No rush, I am trying to get my hands on a cat delete as well for install at the same time

mwwaahahaha!

Illusive · #**1315** (**permalink**) 06-02-2008, 12:55 PM

Which test pipe are you gonna go with?!?!

BTW, I'll probably be doing some limited driving until I can get all my stuff installed and sorted out with the supercharger. In the meantime, my dad got a new toy...meet my Fits new roommate in the garage:

Sugarphreak · #**1316** (**permalink**) 06-02-2008, 01:23 PM

WOW!

Very nice, I think I just drooled on my keyboard

they A-SPEC pipe is 79$ right now, trying to get a quote for it shipped to Canada.

Sugarphreak · #**1317** (**permalink**) 06-03-2008, 01:47 AM

Hey Justin, any chance you have some time this week in the evening? I may need to borrow your fancy new scangauge to diagnose that CEL I am getting.... I have been tearing my eyes out trying to figure out how the Greddy can check engine codes.... and now I am starting to think it can't at all.

Illusive · #**1318** (**permalink**) 06-03-2008, 12:01 PM

Yeah I'm available tomorrow if you want to meet up. Best if you can drive up to my place or meet me somewhere near my office and I can bring the Scangauge with me.

Sugarphreak · #**1319** (**permalink**) 06-03-2008, 03:39 PM

Cool, We could meet up tommorow and I could buy you lunch as thanks

If you want to try it just clear your MIL then plug the EGR back into the original wires and just let it hang loose behind the intake and see if it works for you.

...the hole in the block plugged with a plate...

So basically I have this part done

... although I wonder if this is the same hole?

Any detail pics of the EGR unit floating around?
