Worked on sanding the side bumper molding stuff for my spire.. then went and got the timing belt back on the mazda, got it all back together except for one of the bolts on the steering pump mounting bracket and the spark plug wires.. so i gotta head out to the junk yard tomorrow and get that bolt, and it should be good to go................assuming I actually got the timing right, which is just anyones guess, totally 50/50, i think it is, but there's a chance the crankshaft may be a tooth off. I stuck an extention in the #1 cylinder and cranked it over a few times, as soon as the timing marks line up, the piston starts to drop, but it may be delayed a split second.. we'll just have to see what happens.

Drained the coolant and pulled the rad out of mine today, there wasn't enough antifreeze in the mix to stop it from freezing lol
Also put the KL out of my protege onto my engine stand so I can pull the oil pan to weld in the oil return for the turboLast edited by Damkid; 11-25-2011, 04:11 PM.

Drug it out from behind the shed where it has been taking a nap for the last 2 years. Cleaned it up, looked it over, put some new gas in it, fired right up like I just parked it LOL. Then threw some new xxr 15x8.25 wheels on it...pics soon.

Had a new clutch installed and new fluid change, oil change, and a quick detail. Next on the list, inner and outer tie rod ends and control arm, then new struts all the way around.

Made some new front bumper brackets out of stainless tubing. I made them 2" longer than the old rotted out ones. It makes the car look a lot better from the front. Before I did it like half of my tire hung out wider than the bumper.
I also scored a set of running boards from an X5 at work. I think they'll make a nice set of side skirts. Of course the need to be shortened and trimmed first
