did anybody find my black full face helmet???????? swore i put it in the car. got home and its nowhere to be found!!!!!!!

might have left it with byrons stuff....i hope you picked it up. was in a black Oniel helmet bag the helmet is covered in stickers and vinyl. easiest ones to describe are the krylon spray can stickers on each side.

i need my helmet.

I am almost 100% sure that went into your coupe.

and you are correct sir. thanks was going crazy looking for it everywhere else but the most obvious.

now to figure out why my power steering is acting funny. all super clunky and shit. the car drives ok i spose, but there is some crazy clunking noises like i am driving over logs the whole time.

nothing seems bent or broken. matt thinks it might be power steering hardlines since the power steering fluid was at proper level until i started turning the wheel...now the fluid is at the rim of the resevoir. gotta get it right before friday!!!!!

any good news yet bryon?

ps systems on 240s are so weird. you might want to check and see if you have bubbles. mine had a bubble and it made the steering wheel shake like a wheel was falling off. also there are a couple places that make new lines and reserviors and a cool couldn't hurt.

doesnt sound like mine. the car drives almost the same. turns fine. drives fine. brakes kinda wierd and clunky. when turning the steering wheel it feels like somebody is lightly grabbing the steering column and then letting go so the wheel doesnt turn very smooth anymore. the log comment is because of all the clunking noises coming from the suspension. kinda like i got rocks stuck in the coils. also think all 4 wheels have flat spots from ebrake abuse.

hahahahahahaha ebrake abuse. sounds like a good band name.

wont have a chance to double check the pressure line untill i can get it home, right now its in a storage place here at school, but i'm pretty sure theres a hole in it, and it was puking fluid from being hott or a cooler def couldnt hurt. i know i was fighting the steering wheel like all day... btw i was the blue s13 with the rb in it...the one that sucked

Mine was clunky when I had air in the system.

skylinesx · Post by **skylinesx** » Mon May 26, 2008 5:46 pm

hmmm might just try replacing all the lines and bleeding the system reall good...like i said still unsure if it was puking all the fluid out or if it was simply a hole in the pressure line.
