new tint

 

Re-traced all my vacuum routing and wiring harness.

 

Drove her down to Kub's Auto Upholstery in Charlotte to have my Mazdatrix rotor patches sewn on to the corner edge of my new ACC floor mats. They did such a good job with my door panels and racingbeat seat kit I figured they could modify the floor mats for me too.

 

Got to drive mine a little bit today

 

i can't believe how many ppl don't notice that this is in the NW region. anyways, you might as well post pics here when you get the work done so we can see how they turned out

 

Finished my wire tuck and some other stuff

 

all wires for headlights,horn,main Fuse box ect will.come.out of hole in last pic

Cobalt candy blue.

 

Replaced the front calipers, pads, and lines.

 

Scooted the engine and tranny back an inch... Just gotta get the midpipe done now. Then its grip time.

 

and upgraded the alternator. Thanks Kettlman.

 

No. thank you.

Put a huge dent in the bottom of my new radiator, tweaked it, cracked the welds and punched some holes in it. Also destroyed the driver side radiator shroud and cracked the fan shroud. All in a fraction of a second. Great day!!! So much for getting her back on the road any time soon.

 

I have a radiator and a fan shroud, pm me and tell me what all you might need.

I cleaned my carb today, yay! looks much better

 

Drove her to the gas station to get me cigarettes and a brisk tea... not that I needed either lol

I love this car! Also callin up auto wreckers to find a good set of new shoes for her(Crown Vic meshies)

Coulda asked about mustang wheels but Im not diggin those.

 

let her recoup for another day, driving her home tomorrow night, let the fun begin.

 

Stared at the 6 in the driveway and decided to work on 3 of them.

My R1 now has its Teins again.
Project FD now has old suspension with Eibach springs
Mikes FD now has Koni Yellows in the rear with Eibachs.

Still need to work on Aarons car...

 

painted some of the sheet metal in front of the radiator. figured out where I'm mounting my rokkstar can radiator overflow, or big korean brand tea bottle for ultimate jdm sillyness. Also figured out how I'm going to make my new carb hat for my "ghetto cold air intake", just need to take measurements of the carb opening and find something close enough to fit.

 

gonna take Ol' grey out on its maiden voyage and start workign on them break in miles!
rest assured it is normal for the floor boards to fill with boiling oil!

 

Filled the tank for the first time with new engine. 12 gallons 139 miles. Oh yeah

 

Today I test drove my freshly rebuilt engine around our block. Everything went well, few leaks detected and solved. Happy touring everyone!

 

I took the RX to the bracket drags again. I made four passes, 2 time-only, then took a win in 1st round, and a red light 2nd round.... that's racing!

 

Picked up a low mileage, JDM S5 TII Transmission (damn that was a lot of acronyms!) from a forum member at Formula D.

 

well took the car on its first voyage on the road!, drove allright, definitily needs some tuning on the light throttle low rpm, but felt like it ran strong.
took a few pics of the car, intercooler piping isnt done, so i sort of rigged up the stock ic with some piping i had around, which is why it sticks out past the hood! lol...
