Scuffed up my front passenger side bumper trying to reverse out of this really crappy parking in Whittier, when grabbing hotwings. The wings definitely cheered me up tho, I guess another thing to work on with her I suppose.

Nah, I wouldn't worry about it. When you are on that side, just take the advice of the fellow getting a BJ from an old lady - just don't look down -

Not sure if I should feel honored or upset that some spambot has decided to plant a suspicious link in my post.

If it's working, don't come knocking.

Finally made the decision to get some drivability mods without breaking the bank.

Picked up a 2013 stock header and midpipe for 250 MYR (about 58 USD), gutted the header and sold the contents for 200 MYR (46 USD). The previous owner wanted the midpipe to go as well, so it either goes to the scrap or to another person's hands and I essentially got the header for free.

FWIW I'm retaining the second cat down the line for myself and the environment.

Inside the cat:

Pieces gutted out. Fiber packing removed too (top right).

About 350 grams for the cat contents.

Whoops left a piece out.

Header on block end had some baked carbon in it, so getting a mini flap sander to clear it out first thing tomorrow.

Thanks for this, got my rattle sorted there too.

Funny though because mine is a 10mm bolt on both sides, and only the passenger side is loose.

Trans Bell Housing Cover, after having almost lost the rubber one a few times.

Heard the dreaded TOB squeal. Looks like it's time to put in the Exedy stage 1 clutch/lwfw I've been saving for this moment.

Did a collection of things, before I took it back to the track. It helped me get a new record !

I did this. One of those problems I didn't even know existed. When I went to remove the rubber plug it was barely holding on. Thanks Velox! (I mean Verus)

86 days of ownership and she's looking nice to me

(Took me two days to get the front suspension sitting right lol)

Tein Flex Zs dropped an inch in the back and 1.1 in the front.

Did LA canyons yesterday for the first time, that sure was an experience I’ll tell you that. I’m sure most of y’all already did that course but for folks who haven’t tried it yet, dooo it!

Very clean looking. Can't wait to see more photos from you.
How much whiskey can you haul in your 86?
