Help the kid with a few projects on the car over the last month. Here is the list........

Installed Nistune with new consult cable(Base tune with z32 MAF upgrade)
Installed Z32 MAF
Installed AEM Air/Fuel Wide band
Installed AEM Water Temp Gauge
Installed AEM Tru Boost controller gauge(No adjustments yet, stock and is pulling 7.3 lbs boost)

He is going to sneak up a tune for it, maybe 12 to 14 lbs boost.

S15 notch black top

Now he needs to fix the A/C and speedometer and the car will be complete! Well he wants to upgrade the rear suspension and new front tires. With a McDonalds crew member pay it takes time to save money!

knocked down some surface rust from the interior where I had removed the stock sound deadening and sealed it up, next week I should have my new motor and the fixings to put it in, and hopefully get a new wingless hatch and new pass side door. I'm just a little giddy lol.

Last week I removed all EGR, and installed a new obx header, magnaflow cat, and BRM exhaust :)

Today I put on a front strut bar; its amazing how much they reduce body roll.

Fixed the little plastic electric motor that controls the air mix door. Was making a stupid LOUD click noise underneath the dash. Finally the noise is gone 1.5 years later.
