well haven't gotten a whole lot done these last couple of days. everything is full of fluids except the radiator and clutch/brakes. i had the radiator full at one point but found that there is a small pinhole leak at one of the welds..... luckily it has a lifetime grantee and i already contacted the manufacture, all i have to do is send it back and they will ship me a new one. ended up pulling the battery out again. i really didn't like the way everything looked in the engine compartment so i am looking at redoing things a bit and may be doing a wire tuck....... although i should probably should wait until i decide if i am going to redo the inter cooler and all of the piping. eventually i will go SD and get rid of the MAFT and GM MAF but for now it needs to stay. got a couple of weeks to think about it though. i also need to think about my radiator fan setup also.

some more up to date pictures....

I love that color, but nothing says pull me over in a modded DSM that has a odd color on it . i have the only red one in the county

actually the front bumper came on the car when i picked it up, so i don't know where the guy i bought the car from got the bumper....

eventually the car will get a fresh coat of paint. i was thinking of doing a dark silver (gunmetal may be) with a black lower half which is what i wanted to do with my eclipse because i do need a little more color in the garage to offset the blue STI.....

think i will just re do the blue....
