Road trip to Sebring for the weekend. Unfortunately was last minute so didn't get to run, but saw a lot of twins there!

I'm using the beatsonic cam (because it doesn't require drilling in to the body) with svxdc wiring harness.. Works well!

Or so it seems the longer I spent digging into it the more I find. I guess more of an impulse buy cause the exterior and interior looks quite clean.... Some of the body panel don't exactly line up possibly from different cars (least of my worries lol) driver side lock is now stuck. The steering wheel for some reason is upside down. Those are the minor problems

Got a valve cover leak oil pan leak and rear seal and the cel light is on (hoping just BecuAse of the leaks) and need a tune up and fluid change bad.....

Look like I brought myself another project lol.

I'm surprise that it's is still running so strong at 340k km despite all these problems. Starts up with no hesitation everytime. Makes me want to keep it alive for as long as possible lol. Driving manual everything is such a far cry from the 86 and has a feel that just can't be replicated with modern cars

How's the AEM strut cross brace feel? I'm thinking of going with that over the Cusco one as it'll match the AEM intake I plan to get :p

Tidy HID Kit

Went on a weekend road trip last weekend. Installed a nice and tidy little HID kit before we went on a 10hr drive.

The ballasts are attached to the light and is truly plug and play. No need to mount 2 ballasts. Easy to install. Becareful not to touch the bulb

Adjusted the angle of the headlight. Yes there is that little halo above the cutoff. I might do the squirrel finder adjustment.

Honestly with all the variables (cars, barriers, speed etc.. ) During the trip nobody complained or high beamed. Just make sure your lights are not angled too high. (Which mine were)

35w 6000k

Pretty fun upgrade for $70....if they last longer than a year I'll be happy....sylvania zxe bulbs cost the same.
