Once I get it installed, I'll be sure to report back on the results.

 

cleaned up the car and cruised a bit with my buddy. Also intend on working on the factory dvd rom today.I will post pictures during the process.

 

Installed my grounding kit today, which took about an hour in all. Instant increase in throttle response. Need to reset the ecu, and throttle position sensor.

 

Swapped some exhaust components a few days ago.

And snapped a pic, really want more low but need a lower sidewall tire so I'll wait for these to go bald lol.. Also plan on painting the headlight housings black and installing some projectors this week. I think it'll finish the front end up a bit. Wanna remove the emblem as well.



It's Come along way from the ugly duckling it was when I first got it in December

Here's a pic for reference lol

 

That's a great improvement. The is car looking good

 

Thanks man, between work and life and getting and house and saving up for a wedding money is tight and so is time lol. I try to spend when I can.

 

So i finally got around to installing some stuff today but ran into some snags

-changed spark plugs, went to ngk irridium
-replaced throttle body
-installed motordyne plenum spacer
-installed motordyne throttle body/iso thermal dealio

So a coupe issues are.

1) The FPR wont fit with the spacer installed so right now its just kinda chillin there...I cant get it to line up because it hits the side of the plenum.

2) My idle is like 1200 rpms and its an automatic so its driving a bit different when i left off the throttle and such. I tried going through the re-calibration process but its a royal pita & I couldnt get it to do its thing. I"ll try again tomorrow.

3) My kit was missing the valve however it looks like its not completely necessary & I bought the kit used however it was suppose to include everything. I live in a climate where the temps change daily so probably best to just run without the valve installed.

Still have to fix my door/window. Install hks exhaust, stillen headers, art pipes & transgo. But i want to fix the other stuff 100% before moving forward.

 

Took her to turbo-toys for a small checkup. Turns out she's just a bitch. Also picked up subframe for powder coating.

 

Got new summer tires all around. Continental ExtremeContact DW.....not my 1st choice, but they seem to be ok... 19 inch tires are a bitch to shop for....

oh and i sold my NWP BBTB and Furookie 3.5" without even trying it

 

The story of life lol I understand. Quick question, are you running coilover's or lowering springs?

 

I'm on coilovers as of right now.

 

 

Wow, it's like night and day lol. It looks really good man. Ditto on the whole being an adult with responsibilitIes and stuff..sigh.

 

Thanks man and yes it's a downer lol

 

Wow, that flywheel is nice! Is that aluminum with a steel ring? Looks cool!
