Time for a big update. Ive been pouring money into this project like crazy lately.

Motor is currently at MotoEast being built.
Just bought AP BBKs.
Work CR2Ps are on their way.
Upgraded to some Velox goodies.

Snagged a MY17 intake manifold and a Grams throttle body. Loaded with Radium rails and Deatschwerk 700s. Ready to bolt on new motor.

Had to modify one of the roll pin bosses to rotate the grams. Most plebs are going to mount it upside down.

Motor let go right before Christmas. Was just driving to work and revmatched (like I always do when the oil is it temp). Threw a rod in Cyl 1. Had to put out a fire. Immediately pulled it and sent to to MotoEast along with a donor FA20 from a friend.

Did a crazy mod to my Driveway Labs type 3 diffuser to clear my GReddy cannon. Threw some more Velox parts on. Swapped out my old ISC LCAs. This was early December 2016. Still stock engine setup. Also did a functional fender vent.

Doing some PM this last fall before the motor threw a rod. Leaking fuel pump canister. seals were bad. Changed spark plugs and gold taped my coils. One coil went bad on me and was throwing a code. Also installed Perrin motor mounts while I was in there. They feel awesome!

Screwed up a clutch install on @DerHauptDigga 's 2016 lease vehicle. SMDH. Pics of damage done to frction disc and how it had to come off. Needed a slide hammer to get the damn hub off. Luckily only the friction disc was damaged and the splines on the transmission cleaned up nice. A welder and slide hammer fixes everything! Got his transmission back in this weekend and its running beautifully now. <nervous laughter>

Having put in about 20 clutches in my time as a shade tree mechanic, this is the first time Ive had something like this happen. NEVER AGAIN






<<NERVOUSNESS INTENSIFIES>>
