North Georgia, Tennessee, South Carolina Meet?

[Natalya]

Yup the belt drives the water pump. Also, turns out the belt tensioner is seized, which is probably why the belt snapped. New belt hasn't come in yet, but tomorrow I'm hitting AutoZone to get a new bearing for the tensioner. Hopefully I can get that replaced before the belt arrives.

Good, cause I just borked my left side axle by bump starting in reverse. It would click when pulling away from stops, it was probably already on its last legs and that bump set it off. (No I don't have the part yet) Now it makes an awful clunking noise when turning hard left.

I can probably bring a friend or two, I know one of them kind of wanted me to make a drag wing for them. Any interest from insightcentral?

If i'm not bringing more than one passenger, i'll probably bring a bicycle so I can do some dank woolies.

We did underbody aero panels!



Daschicken installs two more panels under his Accord.




He helped me put some more under my G2 Insight as well.

I'm on the map now, NE Georgia. Natalya, what material is that paneling made from?

Well maybe you can come to the next georgia meet we have. The panels are made from coroplast, same material used to make small signs. You can get 4'x8' sheets of it from home depot for $15. Mildly heat form-able, light, waterproof, easy to work with. What's not to love? Well, I do have one thing, adhesives don't like to stick to it very well. Although there was a tip video posted recently that suggested using heat to get adhesives to stick better.

I would like that. I'm curious, I'm wanting to compare using the coroplast to using some of the thin scrap sheet aluminum I have collected at work.
