Installed my junkyard headlight and polished both of them. No sandpaper required. Just a regular electric polisher, foam pad and rubbing compound. I followed up with polishing compound but really couldn't see a difference. Also installed the rebuilt power steering pump, alternator, and rack and pinion that I got from the pick n pull. It was a messy messy job as the PS pump and rack have been leaking for quite a while. In a few weeks, I will get to the transmission mount and center support bearing.

Installed the rear G35 Rays 19" wheels, noticed my suspension back there looks a little on the shot side. Going to take off the fronts and start doing the necessary mods for the LS400 BBK install, and also probably find out I need new LCAs too.

Got an alarm installed today. $120 installed for a 1-way alarm.
Also Changed my PS high pressure hose a couple days ago. Company called 3sx who i used to buy parts from when i had a Mitsubishi 3KGT back in the day. Looks great and costs practically the same as driftmotion's.

1993 SC400. Bent my trans oil pan a little while trying to remove it (in order to replace the strainer). It was rtv'd on really hard and was seriously tough to get off. Now wondering if I should try to pound it straight or just replace the pan!

My throw out bearing came in a few days ago, and my custom mounting plate to to mount it to the 1uzfe bellhousing adapterto the bearing from exessive manufacturing.com came in, so I bolted everything up to see how it would match and it's dead on!!
I still have some adjustments and some measuring to do, to get this bearing with in 1-2 mm away from the clutch plate fingers, and then it's a hunt for the w58 front shaft, that would be my last piece or I can just go all out and go aluminum we'll see who knows... Here are a few shots of what I'm working with.
