Default wellll...

within the last week i’ve
1. thrown on my 18X9.75 xxr’s (for now) with 225/40/18 pirelli’s
2. taken apart my entire passenger’s door panel to tighten things up and get the 2/3 inch piece of plastic that was rattling when i drove.
3. relocated my front license plate from center mount to side mount (ghetto style with zipties)
4. clay barred and waxed her
5. interior detail including shampoo
6. replaced faulty right ballast (6k 55w ballast)

and i plan to
6. take out front bumper middle column, bondo the holes, sand and paint to look like new. also buy wise front lip to replace torn-to-crap stock lip
7. get eibach springs (for now) until i can afford some tein coilovers
8. send in my cluster and climate control AGAIN to get the flickering lights taken care of
9. buy tint visor for front windshield (summer time is coming, plus it’s sexy)
10.research plans for turbo and new exhaust (far future)
11. new system and deck. no ideas on this one at all.
12.more and more crap...

Just replaced a/c compressor - converted from R12 to R134 (the shop guy was 'surprised' to find it was still R12)
Also finally tinted my windows. Now I'm ready for the Houston summer.

Worked on my door panels epoxying all cracked pieces and changed speaker grills including the tweeter grills and door panel carpet to black. The map pocket piece is just laying on top thats why it looks out of alignment:


And tried to do a refinish on the wood trim from some extra door panels i have laying around to see how it would come out you can see its kind of orange peely, but its not completely dry either. The one up top is from my 95 and the other is from a 92:

Not sure if I like it so I may be trying a deep high gloss absolute black to see what that looks like.

haha tapped. Thats awesome. I was driving from Naples to Miami around the 13th, I think I saw you drive through alligator alley couple of times. If not then another clean SC3. The love bugs completely repainted my car.

Just picked up a 92 sc400 with r154 swap I spent the day prepping the cage for paint...Yesterday I did the timing belt wp etc vc gaskets started deleting the abs and traction control "worthless with the manual swap and for track purpose" This weekend I plan on pulling the rear seats and start mocking up the tin work as well as make some side mount brackets for my new seats.

I went for a drift session at the shop when it rained and busted my widebody rear bumper up. And changed a blinker bulb. It was a fun day.

The rear over fender isn't on in this pic



Nothin a lil fiberglass can't fix.
