    yeah, i'm gonna take a wheel with me when I go up and make sure it fits or the mods necessary to make it fit are something I can handle easily, such as a little caliper weight reduction.

    If they physically won't fit, I'll just use the Aspire set I already have. That's what's on the back right now anyway, at least until I get stupid and build myself a set of rear discs.

    After my ball joint went bad, shooting my CV axle out the side, and basically my wheel falling off, it had bent back my fender, and popped the top lip outwards... It's been bugging me so I went and got one at Pull-n-save.
    I video'd the entire thing!
    Took me 5min45seconds to remove it!

    And 7 min 15 seconds to replace it!

    I put my new JDM RS steering wheel on and replaced the gearshift. I was a little skeptical of the small wheel but it is the most comfortable wheel I've ever had. Two problems, it is so small I can't see the gauges. The second is that I didn't get the pins on the turn signal cam lined up correctly and broke both of them. Ok guys, how do I fix that? How do you like the gearshift knob? It was a freebie and is a big improvement over the golf ball the PO had on there. Not a golf ball gearshift knob, but a real drilled golf ball....lol It is a Predator knob so I feel the power.

    First time I've tried this:

    Found a leak in the oil pan gasket, so that make two gaskets that need replaced, the other being the valve cover gasket.

    Looks like someone did a s%!# job of putting on the oil pan gasket last time, I see some silicon sealant squeezed out right where the leak is. I sure friggin' hope that isn't all they sealed it with.

    Luckily, it only leaks when the car is leaning on the passenger side.

    Still got quite a bit more work ahead of me on this car till I am 100% happy with the car.

    Getting sick of hearing the wear indicator squeal on Rosies front left brake, might put pads on her today. I have a Capri swap for her, but I need to modify some front shocks and get Rio tops first so she isn't sitting 4x4 style. Pads are cheap.
