how about a nice replacement set that we make? for your trouble? and headaches? and let me know what you think of our quality vs what you have had in the past? and maybe forum feed back, truly an honest opinion of then and now?

Installed the new wiper blades and for the first time since I bought it (12/2014) I got a good look under the car. It looks like it rolled over a boulder or got put up on a guard rail but other than a frame rail it's decent for a northern car. I will have some pounding to do.

 

I could do all that because I finally have a garage!

Out for a ride right now with the wife:)

reminds me that the steering coupler needs replaced. Rear brakes are squeeky. And I need to replace the front struts...

Stripped the entire interior except for the door panels and back seat fold-downs over the weekend. put everything back in with a black interior. Still have a few odds and ends to finish up. Going to have the seats re-upholstered soon. I have a few useable maroon pieces for sale if anybody's interested.

Update from the last 5 days.... Pulled out transmission and took to get rebuilt, installed Scott's ms2 ecu, new igniter box, dizzy, map sensor, ait sensor, and sprayed some undercoating and paint in Trans tunnel. BTW, Scott's installation instructions have been very easy to follow so far. Now I need to install the boost control and find a good place to mount that map sensor. I hope tuning the system goes as good as putting in the pieces. Edited by 88351wtsi

Finally had the tires mounted that I bought last year. 8's all the way around with 225/50 in the front and 245/45 in the rear, what a difference on the front with the 8's and 225s they hardly fit in the fenders!

Got my radio panel from Moto and extended my wires on the HVAC so I dont have to move the brain box..I unbolted it and will just push it back further to make way for the gauges....my finger tips are sore from wiring together and stripping wire...I think there was 34 of them..

 

And got it all put together..The DIN for CD player took filing to fit the cage, and also the HVAC slot took filing but once it was filed, its a super tight fit, and Im not even using glue/silicone because it aint budging....Ready to put in the car....

 

The 3 gauge pod is another story...It needs sanding/fitment to screw in correctly....

New CX Racing 3 Row radiator install with RS20 Fan shroud.

fit perfect Thanks to BC_99.

 

no mods needed for the fan shroud to fit either. bolted right tin no cutting or anything.

 

front D2's are in. ran out of day light. need to get rears in soon.

 

Car is bouncing in the back end like crazy due to blown stock rear struts.

 

Great weekend.

went to 89Fiji house to help try and resolve his cars idling problem. been many years troubleshooting.

After testing and swapping almost all electrical parts. it came down to a few things.

 

ISC needed to be reset

TPS reset

replaced the MAF sensor

new injectors.

now car runs and boosts well.

 

when testing the injectors with a 9 volt when you quickly repeatedly

tapped the wire on the battery you could hear the opening and closing

actually slow down as you applied power to it repeatedly.

 

The MAF Sensor looks like Previous owner messed with it and didn't help it any.

 

now the car runs fine.

 

nice to get one back on the road.
