yeah i'm over new cars, i mean it was cool to have a new car but it's totally a buzzkill when it comes down to getting mods for it and tinkering with them, smog laws more strict.
Tri-cats and shit like that... BOOOOOO!!!!
I do my part and recycle and i'm green to balance out the pollution my non egr, non cat having death trap ozone layer depleting car produce lol.
Anyway enough chatting for now, I got a box of goodies from FRSport that just arrived at the house, and I got some shit to do tonight...
Engine
-replace spark plugs
-replace front and rear main seals
-add circuit sports intake manifold gasket (because my sr was not running one period)
-add 7 layer s15 exhaust gasket (because my sr was not running a gasket here period)
-add chain tensioner gasket (have oil spatter on the front of my engine looks like thats where it's coming from)
-got some circuit sport pulleys for the car. Would've gotten Greddy but since i'm stripping them down and getting them re-coated I didn't want to ruin them.
-got a sweet d1 hks oil cap for my valve cover which will match my car's color scheme. (now to order colored vacuum hoses) HAHA J/K
- mount shortblock in car when done so I can measure the engine harness wires to see where I need to cut so I don't end up with 3ft of ECU wires I do not need, plot out the wires.
- Re-pin junctioned wires and get measurements for heat sleeving i'll need for the maf since im going to run that around the engine like in the diagram I posted earlier but I will bolt it to the frame rail.
Transmission
- replace throw out bearing
- degrease that bitch and brush it down
- switch out the speed sensor with my KA speed sensor, not that I think this matters since I'm going to run a stack cluster and you can program it to read km/h or mph. Neither bother me as my old car had km/h on it's display.
Electrical
- Stare at my engine harness some more, and cry.
Stay tuned for the next batch of updates this weekend.
