Also, it's made the engine sound a lot meaner on acceleration. Down side is it revealed a new buzz coming from under my pedals that I'm going to have to track down. Sigh. Can't have the good without the bad, am I right?

Stay tuned for a new exhaust going in on Friday...

Buzz sound like there is literally a bee stuck under there somewhere? Mine has so sporadically done it and was wondering what it was myself

Installed my team voodoo shift knob. Piano black.

My wife had ordered the resistors before we found out about the box thingy. They were also like $3 for the pair. I didn't want to wait for the box to ship, so we just installed the resistors. The biggest pain is just getting to the turn signal wires. Stupid piece of shit plastic screws.

Hahaha I know right? Wiring can be a hassle sometimes.. still, must've felt fuckin awesome knowing you did all that yourself!

I'd get a hyper flash relay anyways though man, you may need it for any future led installs

Installed shark fin antenna this afternoon.

Next project up is creating a new front bumper emblem, same size as the scion, but with 86 center. This will be a bit more involved than some other projects, as I will be creating the master, molding it, and then pulling single piece urethane casts for durability.

Painted my tail lights.

Cherry tails FTW!

Installed Cusco Accelerator Pedal. Took some 320 grit sand paper to put a brushed finish on it. Didn't like the polished look. Heel toe is 100% easier now
