so far ive had it about a week. now ive got it apart ready for the new clutch and flywheel. i still cant decide in the tranny so ill stay without third until i decide.
it has pretty much every sensor new only to find out the IAT and coolant sensor were backwards...lol found that out when i took out the tranny.
also the flywheel has some marks on it. is there a certian way it must be clocked to run properly?
ill take more pics once she is cleaned up but heres my progress for today plus another oil change. castrol synthetic blend and purilator one filters only for this enigne since rebuilt 30,000 ago.

Cool, now I have an RD1 within an hour of my house that I can steal parts off of in the wee hours of the mornings. laugh.gif
Also, OT: What kind of strut bars were those that you traded me a while back?

i believe kspec. i may want to buy them off of you later on lol, i lost my other set somewhere... i just found the flywheel stuff so nvm my stupidity must be something for balancing not timing like on the nissan suv i did once.
nos4atu, thats the perfect word for this car man! so long ive desired it. and so much more enjoyment over an auto, even with a slipping clutch and no 3rd.

You can have the first dibs on them when they come for sale.....
And are you interested in putting some blue LED's in my gauges? I don't trust myself to do it. Maybe do some sort of trade like before if your interested.

looks great! now, don't total this one!
do you still have your aftermarket wheels to slap on there? that would help a lot on the looks.

ive only got 2 of my old rims. i need 2 more or a new set. thinking about 2 17s and 2 18s for a staggered stance.
not real sure what im gonna do yet i want a shark spoiler, 1.8 cam, and a new Ecu first. mine is toasted from someone wiring the MAF wrong. so, i have a bad idle and a code when the readings and wiring is correct.
