So after being gone for work and tons of other minor set-backs, I finally got some time to get a little work done on my dizzum.
I've been trying to replace all the old worn out parts and in general just restore this car. The car is all stock, but spent a few years out in a fields so it's been a bit of a headache.
What I've gotten to so far would be mostly just clean-up of old parts (rear sub-frame, interior, etc.) and replacing the wheel studs on all four corners.
The old:



I ordered what I thought were direct replacement rear hubs for a 92 AWD.
This is what they sent me.


Needless to say I took the new parts back and just had the old parts cleaned up and new studs installed.
After that I moved onto the trans, which was in desperate need of a clutch. Since I'm mostly restoring and won't be adding much power for now, I went with the Excedy OEM clutch w/ a Fidanza lightweight flywheel.


Now all I've got left is to mount the transmission, add/change all fluids, throw a battery in and she's up and running again!
Now for some random garage pics.


old dirty headlights

all cleaned up

And finally: my little assistant through all this
