a swift kick in the *** is all mine gets. along with a new alt. thanks to santa.

also thinking about changing the fuse box to a newer one and installing the alarm and other stereo stuff. heated seats would be the bomb right now, but that will never happen.

I bleed the brakes on her and took her for a spin for the first time in 2 months. I guess the big thing is I decided not to sell her.... just some storage till summer time. Who needs 4 cars? ..... me.

Got my present, and installed it today. Exhaust sounds soo much different with the header. Power change was insanely noticable. Time to re-tune the carb. Next gift will be to install the LSD rear and finally have working e-brake. I need to bleed the clutch hydralics also. I got a practically brand new clutch and I can't park on inclines even with it in gear or it will roll. Simple things when I get some more time to do them. Looks like I may end up keeping this thing after all?! Who knows!?

well, the new fuse box is out of the question. too much damn work for so little profit. and it's so damn cold out right now.

got a pulley on the alt.... but gotta change the water pump housing now in order to put it on. had broke a bolt about 4 years ago and relocated and KETTL-RIGGED the bracket. now it won't work with the wider alt.

Efini Twins, a new diff, silicon vaccuum lines, blockoff plates, removal of AST, and if time allows a custom v-mount setup. Oh, and maybe a Apex'i FC for new years.

Peace
