I put in Saab solid shifter base bushings... The stock rubber ones were a mother to get out.

Went to change my spark plugs today and noticed the plug in cylinder #2 was stripped and the plug came out with a threaded sleeve attached to it. Put it back in, drove to AutoZone and got a new sleeve and some RTV hi-temp silicone. Screwed the plug into the sleeve, covered the threads in silicone and screwed it in. Waited 90 minutes for it to dry (cure in 24 hrs) and turned it on. Started right up and there were no CELs. Keeping my fingers crossed that this will hold. You were supposed to bang the end of the sleeve with a tool to set it into place. The spark plug well was too deep to screw it in with my hand or needle nose pliers, which is why I installed it the way I did.

Changed the battery since some idiot decided to power his wideband using the cluster circuit (*facepalm), then switched the wideband power source and rearranged/cleaned up my gauges and wiring.

Hoping tomorrow is nice to drive the **** lol

Took it to Roebling on Friday. Phenolics work awesome. Throttle body was actually at or below ambient and the intake was warm to the fingers but not hot. New tune is awesome. The car pulls like a freight train.

Pulls so well that somewhere on the main straight at or above 120 the right side inner fender liner sucked loose and pulled back onto the right front tire. The tire proceeded to eat the fender liner like a hungry 4 year old can eat a pile of peeps on Easter Sunday. Pulled into the pits to hit it with the sawzall and found an ugly looking oil leak. Worked on the oil leak and it started to pour rain. Waited it out then sawzalled the inner fender liner when the rain stopped. got back on the track. still leaking on the long sweeper. Done for the day.

Drove from there down to Daytona. No leaks, no issues.

Drove it home today, got to the FL/GA line... p0131. Fuuuuuuuu. Stayed out of boost and in vacuum for the rest of the ride home.

Screw it, it can sit till I feel like fixing it. Maybe next weekend.

late last fall me and my friend spent about 8 hours clay bar/waxing/compounding/polishing and used this weird new technique involving kerosene. car had been sitting since then pretty much but it is still clean as hell. i love the mirror image





i just picked up a d3100 last week and haven't been using it much,but,i tried it out on my car and i think they turned out ok. comments welcome

once the winter ****** cuts the **** and goes away. im going to clean up my engine bay and put some parts on and then i will get more updated pictures. im just going to go drive around for a sunday drive and find some cool places to snap some pictures.
