In the last few days ive had to change my slave cylinder, rip out all rear interior pieces, unbolt my rear floor, and take off my fuel cell mounting brackets because they both snapped and left my fc hanging almost to the ground.
 
Started pulling the Engine on my pretty car

<------- That one. It's a 94 GS, getting converted to "T".

Some guy wants to trade a 6-bolt turbo longblock w/ 120K miles for my 7-bolt NT complete engine (w/ 20K on a "professional" rebuilt that has no oil pressure and silver slime in the oil pan). So I was like "Thanks for the motivation, dude. That car has been sitting, insured, in my garage for damn near two years." He's gonna give me cash for the NT trans, too!

So, now it sits with the trans and axles out, everything disconnected, except the fuel feed line and the 3 engine mounting through bolts. When he shows, all we need to do is pull the hood and hook-up the hoist. I may need to wire the AC compressor to something, I guess.

It looks like I get a few weeks with no engine in the car to run my fatty amp power wire, a couple other wires for the turbo conversion, vac hose for boost gauge, etc... A little clean-up, too, I suppose.

Wow, after all this time, 1 week after my GF goes crazy and bails... Progress on the DSM! Fixed the AC on my 92 GST DD over the weekend... Maybe she wasn't the right girl after all.

God bless DSMs, DSM Tuners, and the Tuners classifieds:hellyeah:
 
I went to my buddies house and helped him figure out what plug and vacuum lines we're preventing him from having a running dsm. 20 seconds later he was happy as a fly on shit. Me on the other hand... I was just sulking in the glory that is "everyone else's dsm problem is simple, mine is epic..." So I felt energized to do some work on mine after this victory over dsm no starts.....

I got my new multimeter and went to the garage....The lights failed to come on in my garage which really pissed me off so I just took this as a sign I need not touch the car today.....shut the doors and walked away...I'm sure I forgot to flip the switch to the off position and said electrical issue will burn my garage to the ground tonight.....
 
Just installed a AFC NEO, ya its 3:30am but im bored...Anyone here familiar with the NEO's? Lots of threads to show how to install em but im finding nothin to explain how to tune em......
 
Will be doing an oil change & a rear wiper delete & a power antenna delete also today.


Well I deleted the rear wiper & the power antenna as planned but I think I will do my oil change tomorrow instead & install my brand new Upper Clear Timing Belt Cover also.

bought my gs new in 98 :cool:

found the title after over 7 years of being filed away :|

have to fax a copy to the insur co OMG

so they can pay for damages after being totaled by a 4x4 :cry:

gonna get it back tho and rebuild :D
 
Cleaned motor/tranny/engine bay and touched up paint on them all.... Pulling valve cover and repainting it as well... Its going to look very clean and sexy when its all back together and all the work for those two lame bolts will be worth it..
 
if only I would've know, oh well bought a recon. at autozone with lifetime!

I wouldn't worry! If it goes out on you aain. Let them know you will pay the difference for it.. They did it for me.. But I also told that would be the last time they see me for another alternator replacement. I think it worked ;)
 
Well I did all of this between yesterday and today...
Well today was a pretty busy day with the Dizzum. First of all, I have a Corbeau A4 wide drivers seat, It's been tearing slowly and it's been getting on my nerves.

So I knew my buddy had just bought some Corbeau Forza seats from a local forum and he was looking to flip em and make some money, He first listed them for 350 OBO for the set which really isn't that bad. But I'm not one to pay what someone want's for em. I went and looked at em on Monday after work, they were pretty good condition, A little faded but nothing terrible. Yesterday he texts me he'd take 250 because he has rent due, I said I'd give him 200 and he replied, 210 so I can keep my dignity. So I agreed and well...

I got all excited and decided to go a little crazy while the other two seats were out of the car..

And while everything was out I noticed my sound deadening material was peeling itself like a sticker. So I did some weight reduction :D

About 10 pounds worth.

I'm going to be taking the carpet to get power washed tomorrow at a local car wash and hopefully get some stains out of it.

Stay Tuned :)

And today, I washed and scrubbed the carpet like no tomorrow, Took 3 hours on it and I think it looks great. I'll take a pic of it when I throw it back into the car.
