May 18th 2006. (I'm out of the country till then)

 

Drove the car it's first 100km's of the season last night, boost is just as I remember it!!! Kind of a pig on gas tho, lead foot.

 

Soon... I saw the first street sweeper of spring today. (Okay, I didn't actually see it, just it's tracks)

 

yup, street sweepers have been all over the place.
20 degrees right now, 40% humidity...it's beautiful.

 

It's not lead foot...it's FAT ***!

 

Hope you're not boosting too much on 6-month old gasoline.....

 

I wouldnt be able to not take it out with this weather, but I still need to finish putting the rebuild in so I hope I can get out by the end of the month.

 

Mine is going in for a paint job, I got a bunch of parts going to the chromers and I'll have to get it all put together so in abou the end of May if all goes well.

 

Oil has been changed.
Stale take of gas has been burned up.

Ready to roll son.

 

My '84 GSL-SE is going for paint next week (original white colour). When it comes back, I'll reinstall all the pieces I pulled off it for the body shop (bumpers, wipers, rear glass, etc) then insure it and start driving it. I have some KYBs and Energy Suspension bushings that need to be installed, but I'm going to wait a few weeks to do that. I'll probably do the front end one weekend, and the rear end another weekend.

 

Streetsweepers are rolling around the 'hood.
All I need now is for it to stop raining every second day...

 

Insurance is back on for the weekend... thankfully it's raining now. Cleaning up all the excess salt lying around...

It's going to be an interesting weekend!

lates,

 

NOOOOO, drained the gas, used it in the lawnmower, it runs better on Ultra94

 

well took the fd yesterday.

After charging the battery for 30min. and tightening up hose clamps, she fired up and expeled some blue smoke. Sat in the car for a few minutes looking at readings off the PFC and setting the clock radio. Came out and looked at the engine bay and instantly shed tears. Seriously, my eyes hurt like a sob.

Can't even drive the FD in 2nd gear w/ no boost and 5 month old gas down on my street w/o being hassled by ignorant people.


e-test then she will be officially out.

 

droe the fc to school, no power below 4k, runs like a bag, need to redo the tps, idle control and all the vacuum hoses. new tires are sweet though

 

2 more wiring harnesses, waiting for brake parts...

Should run on Sunday, maybe roll next weekend.

 

Go Feds!!!!

 

Well, I put the insurance back on April 1st, but its been sitting in my aunts garage for the last week while I replace the engine onmy sister's civic (V-TECH YO).

Still need to send the FC to the paint shop, but first I have to figure out why the engine is burning oil!!!!!! And of course some odds and ends here and there......should be officially ready to hit the street the beginning of May, but won't hit the track until after Steve Khan is done with it June 4.......looking forward to racing my friends Z06!!!!!!!
