RE: smoke question
The ugh... stripes are getting pealed off as soon as I stop being lazy. I did however just get finished painting my dash the other day. As soon as I can get my dawm digital camera to work I'm going to get the pics up on my cardomain page.

RE: smoke question
ok well oil was changed around 2500 miles ago maybe, and the reason of unhooking the IAC was because whenever it warmed up with it hooked up it would idle up and down now it idles at 1000 after warm up.....and itsa 2.0 420a

http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2553055 I got the pics taken, and everything is up on my cardomain page. I have better plans for my car than a few racing stripes.
And 96Eclipse... My car had an idle problem for a while and I couldn't figure out why it was doing it, (it would idle at 2k and when I pushed in the clutch while driving it would bounce myRPMs between 500 and 2k)but I had a bad negative battery cable and when I relpaced it, it fixed the idle problem... so your battery/alternator problem could very likely be related to your idle problem.

LMAO, you have a very good eye there :P Whoever had it last messed up and busted the passenger side of the front bumper and fender and scratched the head light. I got the place to drop a good 1.5k off their price because of it. I have a body kit to replace the fenders, front bumper, and side skirts but am currently having a fight with the company cause they sent me bad fenders. I am going to replace the headlights with projector halos as well.

RE: smoke question
that may fix the idle problem but not the smoking part. when my head gasket was blown it made my idle fluxuate also. when i was driving it would be fine but when i stopped for more than about 20 seconds in neutral or w/ my clutch pressed in my idle would start slowly dropping down about 100rpm's at a time until it got down to about 300 would almost fall on it's face and then jump up to about 2k then do the same thing until i started moving again, at the same time my car would smoke a little bit here and there and my temp would only go up when i was at idle. i'm not sure whether the jumping of the rpm's was due to my head gasket or the timing belt that i changed but it was acting up none, the less. so check that smoke, check ur coolant, keep an eye on ur temps and keep us updated.
