Christmas came early thanks to Ian. Now I can plug the holes in the car. Clutch plug, cam gear cover plug, new rear lock seal. Yeah.

I'm totally down for getting people together, man. I start physical therapy on my leg this week, hopefully I'll be all set by the end of the month. Actually, let me rephrase that, I WILL be all set by the end of the month, because I already paid for my hotel room for H20i, so I am going and I'm not driving my truck there, lol.

Do you go to towson?

If so look up the Towson tuning car club, I think they are having a show some time soon.


Oh and today I got the leather interior swap done, and intstalled my 8xxx mile guage cluster.

I also bolted the two post lift down.

bought a known to be good used opti for the car...this will go in and the engine will be resealed to reduce death of the opti, then later down the road i will probably do an LTCC coil per cylinder (LS coils) setup to remove the high voltage from the opti...this will hopefully be the last opti i ever put on this car (knock on wood)

I do not go to Towson, I actually am a Service Technician at the Firestone right down York Rd from the University. At least I was before I crippled myself, lol, now I'm a service writer until i heal.

Wheel bearings, tie rod ends, heater clips, and thermo-fan switch came in the mail!

Installed the heater clips in no time flat, should be so comfortable to drive again. Tackling the wheel bearings and tie rod ends tomorrow. Maybe the thermo-fan switch and turbo waterpump if it arrives.

Is there any way to visually differentiate between an early and late waterpump? Which would my '86 n/a have? It's got a blank off plug, does that mean its the revised waterpump?

Half way done with the front wheel bearings. Let me just say the early hub/rotor design is a pain in the ***.

Its going smoothly, but time consuming due to the early design.

edit: Finished the wheel bearings. The front end is solid again... Came out of it with a smashed index finger.

Changed the passenger side window motor and got the window up, right before the drizzling rain started. Whew!

Had a new windshield installed. After 5 years of driving with the old sandblasted windshield, I finally decided enough was enough! Also, stripped off the hood insulation and prepped to install new.
