95 Degrees + Rain + Stick Shift + Wearing Sandals + NO A/C + A Giant Slushy (or Slurpee if you live near a 7/11) + No Cup-holders = One HELL of a drive (quite literally)

Today we set off a car alarm on the way home from graduation, due to my obnoxious lack of an exhaust.

Haha nah. I just started experimenting what I could do since no one else would do so. And well, these are the results. Results I'm happy with. I think I've reached the max I want to modify the fenders. Without the spacer I can fit 285s all around np. I have other methods of fitting wider wheels and/ or more offset, but I'll save that until I actually go through with it.

Checked my oil pressure with an actual oil pressure tester (my stock gauge sits at 0) and that turned out good. Replaced my driver window motor/regulator, AGAIN. Still isn't working right. I'm getting good at it though hahah

I slid it under the needle as far as i could go and it was barely enough room to pop it in....hows urs been i havent driven it or revved the car yet to see if the needle still moves freely it took alot of double side tape and i tested each one like 300 times but i finnally got it so the needle moves freely...im worried the tape will give and ill have to take it all apart again....not like it was hard just time consuming haha

Had her 24hrs now, and still trying to figure out why the driver's side front corner t-top leaks (yes, I've read the reconditioning threads, but my leak is actually coming from UNDER the seal in the corner, not from a bad rubber on rubber seal). humm.... guess I'll have to take the strip off of the door jam/windshield/t-top tomorrow and look under it to see what needs to be done. So many parts to replace and so little time.

Where are the reconditioning threads at?....or under what name?

Yeah it was the hardest part to make clearance for the needles. I used 3M double sided tape on my other cars. For this one I used adhesive spray and I can tell, it's alot easier. You just have to use alcohol based liquid and cotton tip to clean up the sticky mess afterward lol
