    Tinted the back windows. Not a great job, but the tint serves the purpose. Bought some new foot pedal covers due to the rubber coverings falling off the originals. Found a local metal fabricator in the phone book that may be able to help me with my rusted undercarriage. Replaced a rim weight that had fallen off. The steering wheel still rattles at around 65, but not nearly as bad as it did.

    This is all in the past week, but I would have a post about every day and yall would get tired of hearing about the mundane stuff

    Great Googelee-Moogelee! At the gas station yesterday, my key broke off in the ignition switch! :eeeeeek: And of course, it's the only key I have! :eeeeeek: :eeeeeek:

    I extracted it, and man I was prayin' that there was enough left so that the Wal-Mart guy could make a working copy. He took one look at the broken key & started muttering, "oh no, oh no!" in his heavy Indian accent.

    FestYboy rolled in about 4 PM, and he got Boopstiva to start!

    Too bad it won't be ready in time for the meet, but she will be rolling in a couple weeks!

    Rode to Laurel's, and got some bad news, engine is probably just plain dead

    Got some nice shiny braided hose and fittings for the feed and return lines on the T3.

    Also, external wastegate came in the mail. Downpipe should be in tomorrow. Turns out that with the way my manifold lines up and i faced the cold side to the passenger end im 90% positive a drivers side downpipe meant for a T3 powered honduh will fit quite nicely 3" all the way through if it fits properly, if not i'll just mod it a bit to make it work like everything else on this car lol

    we'll find out tomorrow when it shows up!

It's probably not a bad idea anyway because sometimes they get super rusty! goop some anti-sieze up in there and good to go
    I've never been able to clear on any of mine....

    And I've had a few installed backwards (?) that the bolt had to come out past the tank on the driver's side...

    I still pull that bolt out, clean it, and replace it. Just like every other one.

    BTW, I think the name for that is "pivot bolt".
