I’ll have to boot up my desktop tmr and take a look my phone doesn’t wanna display the pics and my laptops being stupid rn.

Drove my car home today with a fresh S3 HE, new valve cover and new rear main seal. Rear main seems to be what was leaking horribly. Car will need an alignment now but Is what it is. I’m just gonna run a breather on the valve cover now and breather on the oil cap.

only thing is, my headers are still smoking cause they’re wrapped and I guess soaked up some oil.. I am really hoping there’s no leak still pushing oil on them. Ill give it a few cycles and see if it all burns off, maybe ill have to remove the header wrap

No oil dripping down so that’s a good sign and oil level is holding

Yeah I noticed that two on my phone only a few of the pics are showing up which is weird. Maybe I uploaded them wrong.

Thanks my brotha. That was basically two years of hard work and as you know I'm still not done yet lol. Now that I know how to upload properly lol. I'll post more pics especially in the spring time once I do my brake upgrade with the OTTP brake line kit. You should definitely look at getting that kit or the Goodridge brake line kit that ZZP offers because adding more stopping power is always good. So anymore update on your car?

Shows man, looks really good! Yes!! We need more pics!

I might get the brake line kit, it would only work for the front brakes but still cool.

Well this morning I drained the oil, 7L came out ffs… glad the techs checked :/ But I left the filter in and adjusted the level. Some more oil burning off the headers but I’m thinking that’s just residual stuff.
decided to go for a drive to the next town over grab some pizzas for the weekend. Got maybe a mile from my town on the way in and I spun out on the highway and went into the ditch. Had my dog in the passenger seat, immediately shut the car off. Got out on the passenger side cause my side there was snow up to my mirrors…. All the towing companies are closed on weekends here so I kinda just waited for a minute. One person stopped with a second offered me a ride into town but I said I’ll wait for a trucker. Next minute a jeep Cherokee stopped and he yanked me out. I don’t think there’s any damage. Alignement is a little worse than it was before but surprisingly not horrible..

so much snow packed into everything but it looks good I don’t think anything was damaged at all. Really thankful. Jeep owner was super nice ugh. One of those days you wish you just stayed in bed

Appreciate it brotha. Once the brake kit gets here I'll show pics once i put all that on. I got a new water pump and new belt tensioner I have to get to over the spring as well. Damn man not a good week for the car or you. Main thing is you didn't wreck it thankfully and good someone got you out of the ditch. And speaking of snow Nova Scotia got hammered this weekend with about 30cm of snow. I got a snow plow coming hopefully tomorrow to plow me out. I don't know about you brotha but I'm soo over this freaking winter and want summer to get here now lol

it’s good your doing the tensioner. Mine wore out within a week of going supercharged I guess it takes a lot more stress with the blower.. yeah man I’d love to see the brake line kit installed

i should mention my dog has a seat belt^ so he was mint, he was held in place nice and safe…

yeah super nice guy got me out, should’ve asked for his name and bought him a drink or something. In all honesty didn’t think the lil Cherokee would have the sauce to get me out but I was super grateful.

i personally like winter, would much rather prefer -40 over plus 40. I also like the long nights but I’m seriously done with the snow this year. Fuuuuck . Stay safe out there! I’ll try to here too lol

Yup my belt tensioner has been giving me warning signs for awhile including a clicking type noise. Plus it's the original part so I know its time to replace and yes I was thinking the same thing brotha I knew having the supercharger would create more stress so that was another reason I'm doing the tensioner over the spring before i get to the supercharger. Plus with the bad water pump my car was pulling mad timing and running a lot hotter than normal even with me adding a new denso radiator and new thermostat and full coolant flush(took it to shop for that portion since i don't have a coolant flush machine). This is why i'm waiting to do the supercharger last because I still got enuff maintenance parts left to replace. Yeah brotha you definitely got lucky with your ride it could of been really bad and i'm glad your dog was in a seat belt. For me i've always either hated the winters down here or just tolerated them lol. Some winters in Scotia are mild and then we get Bastard Winters like this year where its minus 20 everyday and snow storms it seems every second weekend lol like WTF! Mind you it seems Canada in general has beeb dealing with nasty winters all across the provinces. Even my best friend who lives in Kelowna said this winter has been really bad and they usually get light snow and mostly rain. They have been dumped on with like 30 cm a few weeks ago and overall more snow than normal brotha. Plus C33VID makes it worse with restrictions and all that mess.
