doing a fuel system conversion to those badass braided lines and AN fittings has always been on my list for this car. it just gets pretty pricey

If I drive like a prick.. I can get 150 - 200 km to a full tank of 94 octane. gulp gulp

thanks guys, i've got a drain flange on the way from the guys at action parts down on mcurdy, those guys are much more helpful than the 'geniouses' at lordco
Tommy i might have to raid your -6an stash if i ever get the correct measurements for my fuel rail stock, and find someone who's got the correct bit to mill them out for me.... you wouldn't happen to have a -6an tap and 11mm injector milling tool would you?  lol
survey says? i need my own machine shop
btw it's MUCH cheaper to make your own stainless lines with fittings, assembled lines are stupid expensive and take forever to get here.

Did an oil change tonight with some castrol synthetic blend"High RPM" 5w30 oil, and an S2000 filter. May as well try this stuff out and see how consumption goes since conventional oil tends to break down quite rapidly at higher rpm driving.
Also vaccumed out my A/C system and recharged it to the correct factory 26oz charge of refrigerant, now it blows 22 degrees cooler than the outside air at idle, should do the trick.

Sure are . When I installed the MSD ignition I forgot that the wires on the cylinder select were cut so it was in 4-cylinder mode. Gotta solder them up. Last thing will be replacing the front passenger caliper as I believe it may be seized a bit

Last thing will be replacing the front passenger caliper as I believe it may be seized a bit | Might want to check the sensor in the block that tells the rad fan to turn on. I have a recollection of some issues with it but I'm not sure if I resolved them.
The fan quit working one day, but if I grounded the wire then it would come on. (Obviously not the fan but the sensor was bad) I replaced the sensor but the new one looked like it had been installed by someone else previously. It also came out of the box with the threads wrapped in teflon tape which maybe insulating the circuit. I realized after installing it and still having problems that they maybe due to the tape.
I do also remember thinking that one of the front calipers was behaving strangely. It would pull to one side under heavy braking.
You should have seen the wasps nets I cleaned out of the fenders last year, they were bigger than my fist.
