Hmm, I'll take it....

110% true! Glad to hear you got it figured out.

Oh, that's right. I forgot about the parking brake setup on these cars. That could also do it....

If the piston isn't retracting back into the caliper when you release the pedal, well, not retract completely, but release tension, then the issue would be with the caliper itself.

Hmm. I'd be interested in that as well. Sounds like a cool idea.

Isn't that the truth! But yea, it does look pretty good. Nice work!

Yeah, that's true. It's too bad that other people outside our LvC group (which are usually affiliated with the other forums too) are so uneducated about these cars, and have no idea about the true value of these cars, which unfortunately isn't much anymore.

Yeah, maybe he just doesn't understand that he's a moron. Maybe it would be worth it to email him and tell him what you just stated.

With trans fluid? And just let it soak it up? Does it leave any residue, or do you go over it again the next day with a dry cloth? Does your car smell like clean transmission? haha

Eww. I don't like it. However, it would be awesome to throw around at the track. Bring it up to NHMS when they have their open track days.

You can get a basic scan tool from your local auto parts store. Autozone carries them I think. That's where I got mine. I got the most basic one though, it just shows you the code, and lets you clear them.

I don't think you understand what I'm saying. The mounts and bushings that came in the box with my new rear shocks from StrutMasters were a different setup then you described. Maybe that's why their starting to make the clunk again. But yes, I understand what your saying and the way they should...

For some reason, I just saw this post. Thanks for the breakdown. For some reason, I remember the bushings that came with the mounts that StrutMasters provided (because I got a complete kit that included rear shocks as well) were one piece. It was like tiered. You shoved it into the mount with...

One goes on the top, one on the bottom right? I'll PM you. Tim, what the hell is that rod/spacer thing for? I don't even remember what they look like, it's been a while since I've been back there.

I've had them in there for just over a year now. I know exactly what you mean. However, they provided some decent rear shocks. The front coil overs suck. Trust me, I know.

No go on OEMs then? I do think your idea about just getting bushings from the parts store is the cheaper way out, which is exactly what I'm looking for. ;)

I may get new OEM ones. But what I'm saying is that the new mounts that I got from StrutMasters aren't one piece! The rubber is separate from the mount! I may just see what my other options are. Thanks.

I should have mentioned that when I got the StrutMasters kit, they included new rear mounts too, but the rubber pieces were separate. When I did the conversion, I did it in my Moms driveway, and my step father, who is an idiot anyway, and who was drunk at the time decided he wanted to help. So...

Hey guys. I'm looking for the rubber bushings (?) that sit inside the rear shock mounts, around the top of the shock. Am I making any sense here? I'm trying to picture what it looks like, but it's been about a year since I did the conversion, and new shocks, and I'm having trouble remembering...

I've had to do this once. Quick question though, for some reason it won't let me change the compass zone. When I try, it says compass error. No big deal, it just isn't always correct, and I'm sure someone must have experienced this before.
