pictures of my new crap:







So it was a pretty good long weekend... for my car.
I got the hardpipes in the mail middle of last week and put them on thursday night after work. The cermamic coating on the upper pipes turned out half decent and all in all they fit well.

This weekend Ryan also was a great help, he used his arms/hands to reach the knock sensor wire that I could not (for the life of me) reach so we fixed that, advanced the timing a bit and backed out the screw on the AFM. Thanks a lot for the help dude!! Also hooked me up with a polished turbo heat shield ( wanted to do mine for a while but I am just so lazy).

Also picked up the triple pillar pod from Bob along with black faced boost, egt, a//f, water temp and oil press. gauges from Bob.
I got the pillar and gauges all installed tonight after work and everything seems to be working great so far. I forgot to grab the sensors for the oil and water gauges so those will be installed once I get the parts I need. The picture of the guages is horrible, but it was dark out and I didn't feel like messing around with my camera.

As well yesterday on the way home from Victoria I picked up a fender and front nose peice from Shane (for a great price I might add) Thanks a lot for holding on to those for me bro'!! So I am expecting to do all the body work this weekend.

The car is finally starting to come along a little ways here.
A new set of tires is ordered tonight so I can finally get those wheels on - hopefully this weekend as well. And a new clutch will be on the way soon, as soon as I can decide what to get.

After this, I am done with the car for this year!! I dunno what next year will bring... I am still contemplating selling it but find that I just keep spending money on it and fixing it. It's just too fun to drive. We'll see what happens I suppose.

More pics to come once I get some more work done
