I hope the flare nut wrench will work. These lines are OLD. I HAD to use vise grips to get my rear lines to break loose then I could use any wrench. If the flare wrench starts to twist, just grab the grips very hard on the nut and just get it to move, then the FNW will get the job done. I just replaced my cars rear lines, so that is what I had to do.
 
Cut out the staging brake bracket that AMS Performance welded in, back in early 00's sometime. This thing was a beast of a bracket, man. Honestly impressed by their quality. The welds were SUPER strong and the plate itself was thick AF. You could take a sledge to it and the floor would've dented/caved around it before the bracket itself moved. Felt kinda sad to have to cut it out considering it's a piece of history, but it was interfering with the driver's side kick panel from being installed so out it went.

Had a little fun at 30+ lbs of boost during a short little drive, then the low fuel light came on OMG:cry:
I went right back home!
 
Bought $600 worth of replacement suspension parts I'm not going to use right now, but at least have on the shelf..
We have shit roads and many pot holes here.

Damn there was actually one in a junkyard that wasn't miller import parts? Grab the B-pillar trim for me if it's not cracked/broken for both the driver's and passenger side! Bet you could make some money grabbing parts off of it that other people need.

Taking advantage of the rare combination of a day off and 47 degrees is considered summer in Chicago this time of year :D

Have had this ETS intercooler cooling my garage for like 2 years... Found a local guy selling some CXRacing piping... Getting pretty close to having more parts on my car than in my garage.

that went together quickly... so turned into radiator/heater core flushing and replacing lines throttle body and turbo lines with silicone hoses and t-clamps...Still got axles, brakes/calipers and lines to do..but think im going to stop after this and drive the car first to make sure I didnt forget to hook something back up, cause a boost or coolant leak
 
Replaced fuel rail with FIC unit, looked worked great (thanks J&ZTuning), replaced my old injectors with new 750cc FIC units, Replaced all IC couplers after finding a gash on one, replaced idle control valve, replaced old and bad brake master cyl, bled brakes with motul fluid, replaced leaky clutch slave cyl, new ngk bcpr7es spark plugs, new 8mm magnecor wires, oil and filter change, fixed oil leak (bad sending unit) and found a little wire that had come broken off the starter (don't know what the hell it did but I fixed it LOL)

Send some rain our way, I am in extreme drought conditions. Pond isn't DRY but it needs a lot of water.
In DSM stuff, I did some more idle adjustments to get the Red 90 Talon to run stoich at idle and finally had to lower the VE table and bam, she came right into 14.7-15.0, which is what I like, even low 14's is fine, 12's were not.
So I drove her down to the corner and on the way back I had to do a 3rd gear test pull. I wish I had been logging but it was just a half mile. When boost hit, I was turning all 4 tires in 3rd gear and she was definitely getting a bit silly, so she is running decent. Still more tuning to satisfy me. I will try to get a log today.

Good thing some old advice I picked up on this site stuck with me... Putting the rest of the work on hold until I get back to running right.

Got around to taking the car for a drive yesterday... No coolant leaks and no overheating:). But a massive boost leak somewhere as when I get into boost range, there is a jolt that says "NOPE"! Brought the car back home and did a boost leak test... Immediately see bubbling at the Jpipe... Used the wrong gasket, as I found one that the guy I bought the CXRacing piping from included some type of metallic gasket that suppose to on the new jpipe.. Gonna put that on today and try to get out for another test run if the weather and my job cooperate.

Do i need to use this copper spray or RTV that I have or will the gasket be enough?
