Car really hasn't been driven much thanks to the texas heat and my car's low speed lack of A/C. It doesn't idle up anymore at stops, so the compressor kills the engine.
Thinking about removing the A/C entirely, save the weight, and just drive her during the cooler months, or when I can afford to sweat.
Got a new LSD for the rear though, bushings, and axles too. Waiting on my steel rear diff cover to get completed though so I can fully upgrade the rear while it's out in one fell swoop.
Had my ACT TOB grenade on me a month back (main reason for me not driving the car atm) and STILL waiting to hear back from ACT as to whether or not they will cover the cost of the new OEM unit. I even did the work myself so there is no labor coverage involved. I don't know why ACT can't make decent throw out bearings though.
A twin disk is on the list of things to do. The street disc is all but glass now from the track usage and constant daily driving strain.
Summary, it's getting near time to retire the GSX from daily driver status.

Yea man, having a daily driver makes things soo much easier. I absolutely hated having to drive my car in 100 degrees with no ac or in pouring rain and through puddles etc. Its so much more convienient to drive the gsx when you want to and having something else to drive while you work on it!Posted 09-20-2009 at 08:33 PM by Gstclipse69
