Pics to Stave of My Boredom

Post by **rico05** » Sun Jan 04, 2009 8:50 am

I got bored with all my time off this week so I detailed my engine bay, fixed and cleared the signatures on my core support (for why my car is signed, read here: zerothread?id=346579 and here: zerothread?id=363901) and redid my Nismo STB (stripped it, polished the main bar and repainted the end plates and hardware).

Please be enjoying the boredom!

The old setup

Paranoia

And to answer the question before it's asked, some ppl who've modified the upper timing cover have had problems with CAS failures and the little spline in the exhaust cam stripping out.

Well, my thought is:#1: I've had this motor for 4.5 years, so I should have it pretty well sorted#2: I just did a chassis swap so everything was out (hence the matte black paint)#3: Every meet I go to, people crowd my car to see the anti-SR

Plus, routing wires and such is cheap/free. And I really do get bored. VERY bored.

I'm surprised no one mentioned Fram = faildozer. Go buy a purolator you bum. Also, nice job cleaning. It is indeed clean.

Actually all the stuff I have read on the Fram Racing filters has been good. And the only place that I have ever seen Purolator is Advance Auto which there are none of in Dallas.

I am so, so jealous of that TBO cold pipe.

Mainly the sticker.

P.S. are you missing an engine ground on that intake manifold?

Post by **rico05** » Wed Jan 07, 2009 3:33 am

Nope, I lowered it (it runs under the manifold runner to the shock tower)

Dropped that wire to the floor!!!
