Finally had time and money to do a few things to the 240. It's been sitting for about 3 months and I have just recently had some extra money to get it fixed up.

Here are the parts that I am putting in:
-Vehicle Speed Sensor
-Bosch Platinum Spark Plugs
-Bosch Spark Plug Wires.
-Spectre air intake and maf adapter
-E-brake Cable
-Fuel Filter

Well today I started working on the car and I got the Fuel Filter in. Went to change the spark plugs to find out that the aftermarket Header the last owner put on the car is just a hair to wide and covers the middle spark plugs so I had to take off the header.

Next, crawled under the car and pulled the vehicle speed sensor. I need to take the side skirts off the car tommorrow cuz my fat ass can't crawl under neath there with them on.

Quick question, where can I get a Jack that really gets the car up in the air?
2 ton jack from lowes that works but it never feels that far off the ground.

Well back to the WL. I pulled the stock air box off and put on the maf adapter and then the specter intake.

I had some issues putting the exhaust back on and so I gave up for today. I gotta go to the store and get some gear oil as the crap that came out with the vehicle speed sensor was liquid death.

Well thats all I got for today. Stay tuned I may get out my camera and take some pics tomorrow.

You could always make the car a little higher by stacking some 2x4 pieces on top of the jack pad. It may not be much, but everything counts. Don't support the car with anything but the jack stands though.
