Replaced a bunch of filters and changed the oil.

The only challenge I ran into was removing the tail lights to get the cover off. Two of the four screws for the tail lights had stripped screws. Also needed to replace the two plastic covers, one for each side. One was broken and the other was missing.

There was also a missing rubber mount for the Y-air intake. Popped that back into place.

Her first tank of fuel was a Good one

found a gas station not far from my house with 93 Octane Non-ethanol gas.

other than race fuel, probably the best fuel I have ever found, this will be my go to station from now on

No thanks. I’ll wait until they are in stock. I get impatient.

Like The Recaro Podium seats. 3 years ago it was soon.

2 and 1/2 years ago it was almost here. 2 years ago place your orders now. I still cannot get them.

They should have said, may be available in 5 years time.

I thought the engines are tuned for ethanol?

They are tuned to accept ethanol, but they do not require ethanol.

So what is the benefit?

Non ethanol extra cost is significant over the course of a year.

$.20 a gallon add up to something significant over a year? Really?

We aren't talking about an 18-wheeler doing delivery runs coast to coast, even DD'ing it, $.20 a gallon over 10-12K a year is chump change, less Than most people spend on a bar tab or halfway-decent meal over the weekend.

Secondly, non-ethanol is more efficient (up to 4%) and makes more power.

I wouldn't mind scooping one of these in black myself... wish I could turn the airbag light off.

Not sure if legit, but def look legit.

After driving the car with 7MT for a week, this is a must have.
7MT isn’t as bad as any of the reviewers made it out to be but downshifting leaves room for improvement (for someone like me ) , my feeling is it’s easier to do a money shift (or May be I am
making excuses for my lack of skill)

Looking forward to your feedback after fitting the shifter and cables!

Still in the body shop but got some 2M Fabrication cat bypass pipes. Half the price of the competitors and the quality looks good
