Alright, well something hit me when the new year came around and I got a ton of motivation to work on the car....I think its cause I miss the feeling of boost....
Well, my BEP bolt-on HX-40 housing came in...Called Nick from the Turbo Trader and he got me taken care of right away....

And finally I finished deleting sensors from the wiring harness...Im measuring wires currently, cutting, and resoldering....

I called JNZ and had them order me two plastic pieces that hold the wiring harness grommet to the firewall so Im still waiting for those.....
To update on the parts list....Im placing my order for a inline 255 pump, an FP intake, BC valve springs, some turbo hardware/gasket/oil lines, couplers, Head gasket and studs in the morning so soon this car should be coming together.....
I finally got all the sleeves out of the rear suspension so Im gonna throw some paint on the control arms/knuckles and get those back on the car....I have new rotors, pads, ss lines, wheel bearings, etc for all four corners....
Be looking for some big updates coming soon as I am sending my head to the machine shop next week to be machined and assembled....The motor is being pulled this weekend and this is when the fun should start.....
Ill update soon, thanks for the interest.....
