yesterday i switched out my battery, replaced a blown fuse, washed it, tightened a belt, and adjusted the rrfpr
 
Nope I'm waiting till I'm out of school. I'll be done in a couple weeks and home for summer.
 
I have some stuff to do too and I'm out of a job. So now I can actually get some stuff done, but I really need another job.
 
well since i let you do a weeks worth of work in my garage and you have some free time, youre gonna be over all next week helping me with the intake manifold, radiator, and intercooler. :)

got some new tires for the summer wheels. i figured once cord was showing it would be a good time to replace em. also i decided that the car is gonna get a complete visual overhaul this summer. i am going to do the following

install cooling and intake parts the upcoming week
then after i get my paycheck i will buy an ssafc and tune.
and immediately after that i will start fixing all fitment of body panels, fixing rust, sanding and bondoing whereever i need to and removing dents.
then i will be painting the car on my own. i have decided i will be going matte because it shows imperfections less. so the decision is mainly between matte military green with some stenciling or matte silver. if i go military green the wheels will be painted black with a red lip. im not sure though, im very open to suggestions for paint colors. silver would be easiest though with door jams and underhood.
also all trim pieces will be plastidiped and underrhood pieces are going to get finished properly.


im sick of driving a car that has problems. so instead of modify, im gonna fix everything.
 
track tires mounted, spark plugs changed, first synthetic oil change, and gas treatment. havent driven her yet, but i will to autocross in the morning :)
 
thanks brotha. and im using falken azenis 615ks for autocross. i love them!

completely fixed misfire and repaired a ton of cut corners. gave it a full wash and started on the intercooler and radiator. the intercooler is coming along nicely!
 
sub.. but also 2 things..

1- quick release bumper clips are supposed to hold the bumper up w/ no gap.. adjust them!

2- this thread can be labeled #1 since the og #1 got deleted.. no one the wiser!
 
thanks for the subs guys haha.

and yep the bov fit with that radiator. but i also swapped for an msp radiator today and the 6 blade fan. got the whole intercooler hooked up too. though for some reason i have a boost leak somewhere that i will have to find tomorrow. and damien, while the bumper is off i am adjusting EVERYTHING to make the headlights and bumper all fit gapless again! ive been making leaps of progress with this car. with the next paycheck ill be buying an ssafc. but a quick question. what is the difference between an ssafc v1 and an ssafc v2?
