Did Mothers 3 step detail process for pre-wax, glaze, and wax. Was skeptical but now my paint has never looked better. Got rid of all the crappy swirl marks left by the previous owner and made an average paint job look soo much better. Very pleased. I'll have to try Zaino or clay bar next time.

Woke up at 4 am before work (couldn't sleep) started cleaning the engine bay and mocking up fab for undertray and CAI relocation

I pulled the cover back, shook my head at the dust that's it's collected, put the cover back on and worked a little on the suspension.

Full interior strip, carpet removed. cold side turbo pipes / intercoolerpiping. UIM. now for the LIM the rest of the heat shields and to put that stock turbo where it belongs. Did this over the past weekend.
|
The race prep is coming along nicely I see
|
I will be replacing it with lightweight carpet. Jesus that stock carpet is heavy. a good 30+ lbs saved. All the plastics will be going back in. My AC still works. Will be a full street class full interior full AC beast.
|
Haha! When I pulled the carpet out of my Parts car I was like, "WTF? They saved weight on everything BUT the carpet apparently!" Can't wait to get to interior work in 6 months or so in order to get quiet coat and a different carpet in!
Speaking of...Mark...what are you doing with your Stock Turbos? Might be interested. Also...did you have tan or black interior door panels? |
I have tan, willing to go black. Or do a tan plus cash for black. The stock turbos on it are done burning a healthy amount of oil. I have most of a 99 set and most of another stock set at my house need be.

Soo finally bolted the new turbo in, put the lim back on. Now just need to reinstall the fuel system, oil coolers, then the rest of the ic/intake and we can do a test start. Fuel pumps and new fuel lines of course. Vacum mess is left to annihlate aswell. yadda yadda. |
