Fuel pump only sedated the sputtering problem. Sock was disgusting. Thought it was my inlet oil line leaking ended up being head gasket exhaust side. Time for some machine shop werrrrk. Put some head shield wrap on the back hose. This is an old pic. Teh beast. :biggrin:

finished sanding the engine bay, lowered from jack stands and rolled it into the driveway. Cleaned the hell out of the bay and did some more sanding..Sprayed it with black primer, 3 coats rattle-can high gloss black paint, and 2 coats of clear. Going to wetsand and hit it with some meguires compound today.

i should be posting in this thread everyday, I installed energy suspension bushings on the front control arms & steering rack. Installed front Z32 calipers. Put my wiper motor back in. Put some fiberglass in my gutted interior and onto my hatch. Made runs to the nissan dealer to order parts, home depot for some rattle cans and a missing bolt. Sprayed some interior pieces. I'm sure I'm forgetting a few things.

Yea I've been worried about the no A/C thing with how hot it's been the past few days but I'll deal. This car is just for fun and I've got a nice car for transportation and traveling.

Today I put the diff cover back on and filled my newly welded diff with oil.

Sanded and primered the trunk and the interior. (very rushed job didn't tape off anything, just want to get the car done and running at this point and need to spend more time on function instead of form)

Continued the reassembly of my intake manifold & painted some more interior parts. I'm really happy with how this is coming along, I've put a lot of hours into this.
