Fixed the horn, removed awful looking autozone gauge holder, got car prepared for wideband and new boost gauge. Figured out my shifter problem thanks to the members on here. Now hopefully this week I'll get the gas pedal fixed, rc550's installed and see what I need to fix the rear rotors
 
Installed some crap-yet-better-than-stock headlight bulbs.

I also cleaned/soaked and re-oiled my FIPK. When I took the car out for a drive I was convinced that I had forgotten something because the car just seemed more subdued. I wasn't getting the raw sensation I usually do. So the whole way hom I was trying to think of which vac line is still unhooked or if that zip tie really did go down my intake pipe.:pray:

And then I realized that the operation I had performed, the re-oiling of the FIPK, was likely to blame. Kinda crazy how you can notice such a huge difference rolling round town.
 
Today I installed a new rear cover+seal and my freshly painted oil pan with some moroso oil pan studs.

Kept fidiling with my new throttle body to try and get my idle right. I have a CEL come on when the throttle plate is closed and goes away when I touch the gas. Tomorrow I'll do more digging.

Also bought some water wetter and Redline 75W90 tranny fluid.
 
Ordered a new QM Flywheel, now I have officially bought the whole QM Twin Disc kit piece by piece while "rebuilding"my old one...only the bolts are from the old clutch....

What's the CEL for? I'm going to guess it's the TPS.


As for me, I did absolutely nothing. I did order new lower lateral arms to fix the passenger side ball joint. Trying to figure out what else I want to add to my to-buy list as well. I was thinking about it though :p
 
Installed oilcooler. Mocked up radiator and turbo setup. Modified fan shroud to gain more clearance. Yesterday I installed my new engine and trans. Over the weekend I installed solid subframe bushings, ES suspension bushings, and my DG coilover setup. Tomorrow hopefully Ill finish getting all the bolt ons put on the engine and start her up!
 
Finished working on my Engine wiring harness after pulling it an rerouting it and Finished putting my dash back in an my In-car wiring also... .
 
took the engine harness out so I can take it all apart and shorten up wires and reloom the full thing and get it tucked. Also got the engine bay harness out so I can get the other one that I took all the extra wiring out of that was not needed. One of the nuts came off the front bumper bracket and had to cut a hole in the frame rail to get the bumper off the car.

started on the right side of the engine bay. Took out the cusco brake stop bracket,brake booster,clutch master,line and slave.
Then I went after the body glue with the torch and then the wire wheel to get the car ready to seam weld the car to make it stiffer. Also wire wheeled all the bolt holes that are not need on the frame rail.
