Looked at it and cried, poor baby with a bent rod....need to get the money to do my 2.3 build and built head.

Why not just toss another rod/piston in there, and drive it while you save some cash?

Changed plugs. Took the E3s out and put in NGK

Drove her around

Went to the drag strip. Pretty much stock DSM at 3190 race weight ran a [email protected]. Couldn't get a 60' below 2.007 though.

pads, rotors, calipers, plugs, wires, rewired the radio harness, MBC

wired and installed my new auto meter ES series gauges Boost , Oil Press , Water temp . also new super bright red leds for my cluster (goodbye orange ) .drove it hard on the highway ......slayed a Hon-duh . shopping for turbos today . good day

Sat at work, looked at her pictures, and wished I was home taking her apart...

FMIC Kit that didnt fit and a new set of rims/tires

I stared at her beauty while drinking corona.

welded up a new upper intercooler pipe with oem dsm bov for my maft setup.
i had been using a ssQv and it sucked. oem bov's kick ass.

i figured out i had random n/a hyundai cams in my engine and switched them for a set of turbo "d" "c" cams.
and of course i put in 3g lifters.

all this work eliminated the weird random knock i was getting and made the car much more predictable.
GOOD DAY!!

Wanted to get my front headlight conversion on a 94 to 91 popups down but didnt get the chance

Got a new speed sensor from satan, removed battery and uicp, then fought through a mess of wires and vaccum lines to get down to the backside of the transmission to get the old sensor out, dropped the 10mm bolt and bearly missed the the hole going into the tranny , then did a boost leak test, and put it all back together, took it to a car wash, then took it for a test drive around the neighborhood

Tried to figure out why she is braking up after 5500, for the past week now.

made a heat shield with some BMW/MINI leftovers i had. not the best looking but should work better then the stock one i didn't have ha ha

Installed radiator, topped off fluids, cleaned up some stuff, tightened up loose bolts, got her the her for the test drive this week.

Got her ready for test drive this week.

Walked right past her.

Shaved a spare valve cover and prepping for "rain effect" paint job. Painting other parts of engine for engine install later this week

Snapped some bolts, drilled them out, painted my spark plug cover, timing belt cover (came out a little spotty), and my heat shield. No more red and blue contrast. Now its straight red and black .

I relocated my battery to the trunk, replaced my front passenger bearing/hub assembly, bled and adjusted my clutch pedal to get engagement off the floor (success!), and patched up an oil leak. All in all a good day.

You do know that project will be quite involved right?

Found a nice five piece wing at the junk yard, pulled the three piece wing and called it a day. Its cold as heck in reno.

Well this happened friday but on the way to work and the "goose neck" on the radiator decided to explode and blow coolant all over the engine bay FML! I jerry rigged it enough to get home but it was pissing out coolant the whole way but NEVER over heated

Now its stuck in the driveway waiting on a radiator to be shipped from cali but i get to drive my wifes dodge charger until it arrives

ordered a punishment racing down-pipe, kind of bittersweet from my perspective.

spent two hours cleaning the interior

Moved it into it's new permanent park space........
