new piggy front enddddd
WOOT! mang way to come back to the piggy side looking good man now all you got to do is paint it to match and your set unless you like it that way either way if you need help painting it I'm down man now were both piggyAnd as for what I did I patched the holes in my trunk for the time being by taking interior panel fasteners (those round headed plastic snap in kind) painted them white and epoxy'd them in. It came out pretty well (look like big rivets on my trunk lid. plus I installed my new LED dome light so now I can see at night lol no more fumbling around in the dark looking for s*** on the floor.

I took apart the intake Mani and stripped it of all in used vaccum lines, and simplified the coolant hoses that run under it, also fixed my oil pan, resprayed my fuel rail, and started to sand down the driver side door sill.

OK, its 12:01 AM. Give me a break though.

Today, I moved my car from the old place I was living (because old roomates threatened to tow it) and moved it to the new shop, filled with my excellent friend/ex-stepfather's snap-on tools :). I have still been dealing with the oil pan leaking, but I hope to get that fixed within the next 24 hours, along with the starter problem. I washed her of the pollen the South has been coated with, and noticed some blemishes in the clear coat (besides the massive dent). I think I will also be buffing her, maybe give her a nice wax job and get her ready for the weekend. It'll be her first in god knows how long!

I put a new cold air intake on my stock 89 coupe. Kind of useless as I need a new MAF as I can't get the RPM's to rise passed 3-4k without letting off the throttle. Hahaha! No really it sux. :cry:

Was going to put aftermarket stereo and speakers in, but unprepared self i am, got wrong size speakers i got 6x9 i need 5x5's. Didnt get the right ports for my stereo. So i went and bought a new shift knob(wanting something longer) Spent 2 hrs trying to get the old one off. Which was totally a female dog. Went to put my new one on. and it doesnt stay. so my buddy feeling bad for me and not wanting me to drive home knobless is letting me borrow his revolver shift knob from his pulln' tractor. Gotta love them HillBillies. lol Oh and gave her a bath and replenished her thirst.

Just got in my J.Gladman cooling panel. I took off the oil pump and oil pan off the spare KAe and discovered the old Chain guide and bolts in the pan. I can tell already that it was the straight plastic kind. not the OEM.

Decided since the clear coat was trashed on my hatch lid that i would sand it down and re paint it. What i found was a TON of bondo. had to sand all that down but looks way better now :laugh:

Yeah Toby is pretty awesome.

I just got my Koop's timing chain done. Now it sounds GREAT at idle, all new belts and purrs like a kitten.

Removed the auto rev sensor from the hatch and threw it on the Koop. I thought it'd be easier. It shifts way better then shifting off the speedo.

Went to put on the Gladman cooling panel and then realized that the Koop had to have been in a front end collision. So panel is going on the Hatch due to the incompatibility. Fits great. Need to straighten exhaust a little more.

Cleaned up the Spare a little more. Might take the motor of hatch later depending on how tired I am.

also replaced broken trans mount with a half broken one.
