Alignment
I hit a curb hard turning right on a uturn. So i thought i would check the front alignment. The side I hit was still in spec and the other side was out a little. But the rear wheels were both way out of alignment.
Now the car drives like it was new. What a differance rear alignment.

Did quite a bit on my 93 this weekend.
Rear toe-link bushings replaced, purple poly
Rear inner LCA bushings, Mazda
SEM trim paint, pass side plastic, cneter console and HVAC panel
removed crapped out factory BOSE head unit
Installed used PFC ECM and commander. Good idle and drivability so far after about 25 miles.
Was supposed to install an oil pan brace but I was sent an FC brace and didn't realize it until it was too late to get the right one.

My clutch master cylinder failed, so I put in a new master, slave, and braided clutch line. Apparently my system is now really strong, because my clutch fork decided to break while I was pumping the clutch pedal to bleed the system. I couldn't figure out why I had pressure, but little travel in the pedal. I opened up the inspection cover and one end of the fork fell out

My clutch system was replaced about eight years ago, but I've been busy with school and life, so there isn't a lot of miles on it. Still enough to be too much for an old fork though. It just sucks being spring time and it's one thing failing after another that's keeping my car off of the road. That's how it goes some times!

Went to get my '72 BMW 2002 out of storage to prep for the Swap n Show, but it wouldn't start. Walked over to the FD, hooked up a battery booster, and it fired up for the first time in a year. Heck yeah, I drove it home. Does it seem odd that my FD is the most reliable car I own?
