After spending the last couple weeks or so just cleaning and fixing and getting things to a point where I feel okay driving the car I did a "mod" to it today. SPL subframe collars. What a great mod, mine where pretty worn, rear end clunked all over the place. Nice and tight now, hopefully it will last a little while before the bushings completely disintegrate and I have to put new bushings in altogether. Other than that I've been cleaning ants out from under the carpet. shampooing and cleaning the carpet, rear seat. Cleaned up the center console and all interior panels. Cleaned up the wiring behind the radio, bypassed the factory amp and installed a new radio (actually I guess this was the first mod) Fixed the fuse box so my clock and cigarette lighter work all the time and the radio ignition power works again. Made the trunk lid stop rattling, got some rear seat belts installed (mine was missing one), polished the headlights up a bit, reattached the front bumper and straightened it out, replaced the resistor pack for the ac blower so it works on all speeds again. Can't remember what else but I've been busy. Waiting on some trim parts and a new gauge cluster to finish up fixing broken stuff in the interior. and hopefully I can find some nice seats locally to replace the beat up leathers in the car now. Throw in an O2 sensor and I should be happy for a while just driving it in much better condition than I bought it So far I'm digging it a bit more than my S13 hatch
