got me some goodies for christmas for the car! Going to hopefully shoot some sick vids with this thing!


Also got a rotary oil cap and a coolant non spill filler so I can burp out my system!

took the day off today to get the car issues wrapped up! hopefully I properly fixed my oil leak and will now be sealed properly! Was not able to get the car out though because of the crappy weather today and the face that someones car was blocking me in in the garage! but its ok. because new years is coming and I will have some time to get it outside, check the leak and properly burp out the coolant system!

Car is dirty as hell from being in the garage under the knife for so long, so it might not have been a bad idea to have taken it out in the rain today!

Also, my optima battery seams to be on the frits! not sure what to do now =( not sure if warranty will cover it or not!

Thanks guys, I got it as a gift and they got it off amazon, but this is the site that makes em, they also make the same design for the brake fluid and stuff. http://www.rotary13b1.com/

It is a little larger than I expected and I might need to take off the cross bar to get it on! so I need to see how this will work out for me!

Stop being a lazy bum and finish that car bro! like what I said, do what u need to do first and then go back fixing her up, once it gets to spring you should be able to have enough motivation on finishing up the car.

Finally get going to the last steps! recharging my battery and getting a new bung welded for the wideband!



And then, only with my luck does this happen... Drive about 20 minutes to my garage to get going on the work. I open the trunk to get the DP and battery out and what do I find! the battery tipped over and both terminals hit the DP and pretty much burned its self out and melted in my trunk. Super lucky nothing cough on fire... Now I need to get a new freaking battery!

After about almost a hour of trouble shooting and trying to get the car started Mobeoner unflooded the car and we were able to get it started to start to adjust the tune to at least be able to drive it...

Felt good to cruise around a little even though we could not push in.




One step closer to having the car ready to roll again!
