HVAC gauges to add some HP. Completely cleaned the interior and painted with truck bed liner. Painted the stabilizer trunk thinks shiny red. All I need are seats...

So I got mad that my windows wouldn't go up and down without sticking and I would have to push them back down, so I just went out and lined the sides of the window fitting with 10w30 oil and wadda know. worked like a charm! LOL

I am LOVING the black and yellow combo there. Might have to steal that idea with some different colors. White top anyone?

Torqued down newly machined head to newly built block, only to find some assembly lube pushing out from between the MLS gasket layers. Lube apparently dripped down from head overnight down the oil returns. Should I worry about this? or can I assume the pressure between the head and block will push everything out?
 
Looked at it. It's under a tarp, now under snow. If I gave a damn about the paint, which is in pretty bad state, I'd go and buy a car cover.. but they're $100, and I'm in a lack of caring about it.

Last year did some good damage to the paint, furthering it's sleeper look :p

So it will now sit there for the winter. I really wish I could run it every couple days, but it's across the city and just not worth it. 160kms on it since rebuild and I have to wait for 5 months to drive it again :cry:
 
Drove it for the first time in weeks due to my trans getting rebuilt. It's only a t25 but man it felt good to have boost again.
 
Lol, I only know because I have one personally. Its just a cheap ebay gasket and I suspect that's why. I'll take care of it when I feel like going fast LOL.
 
Fixed my ignition switch. Didnt want to lay out 50 bucks for a replacement so i took the switch out and noticed a worn spot on the one copper plate. Figured this was the culprit so i soldered a small thin brass piece from an old power strip/surge protector and lo and behold, starts right up. No more fiddeling with the key 10-15 times to get it to start. Turn the key once and ignition. If anyone else is having this problem and your handy with a small butane torch and solder pm me. ill walk you through it... took me all of 20 minutes from take out to reinstall...
 
It has been driven in its very first winter this year since I bought the car new.

It sucked the door was frozen shut. It is also sad that I am going to drive it in the snow and salt. It still has 48,000 miles on it.

It sucks driving it knowing the salt and stuff, but it's so much fun, no? I just love driving my 3000GT or Eclipse in winter.
