Today I resisted spending a lot more money. A loss in some people's book. A win in my book, as I really want to get the ***ch out on my first track day before spending much more $. I will probably buy a header before then (alright planned on it), but in my opinion, driving instruction/HPDE is vastly more useful than more "stuff". ;-)
I'm totally envious of all your parts, by the way. Lucky bastards. :-) |

Edit: the only part that isn't really easy is running the wire from the trunk lid to the trunk through the rubber tube. Be patient and get a second set of hands if you can. Last edited by Monoman; 04-02-2014 at 09:46 PM. |

Put this in. It was $6 and I thought it would be a nice little accent for the interior.
Next up, and I blame @idanvan for this, is to debadge the rear. It looks so much nicer without the badges. |

Have you checked anywhere a little outside of your local shops? Or Canada, for that matter?

Wanted to experiment with a DSLR so I tried taking some pictures. No tripod and I'm a complete monkey, so they aren't stellar but I liked a few of them anyway. The camera's sensor also has two faulty pixels-- very annoying, especially when shooting video where they can't be removed.
Interior and plate lighting are Diode Dynamics' stage 2 items, if anyone's wondering. Also shot some video, just ****ing around and practicing focus pulls. Caught a clip of exhaust vapor being lit up by the tails that I thought was kind of cool: |
