Lemme know if you felt a noticeable improvement with that rear bar. Curious if those help!

Finally installed my power steering pump after a year of having the replacement. Talk about procrastination.

Also swapped out the intake manifold and 17lb injectors. My car is officially alive. Despite being automatic, it has increased in responsiveness with the help of the new injectors and my 173 chip.

I bid goodbye to fuel economy I guess. I have yet to try it on long driving.



While I'm in there, replaced the intake mani gaskets as well.

Just tried rebuilding my vanos and broke the damn torx bolt that hold the gear. M*&^%r F*(^(&*r!



Bolt is in there.

Replacing with the anti-rattle kit when the stupid torx bolt broke.

ddmtuning.com but shipping takes so long coz it comes from China. Compare prices with Umnitza.com also. The latter is local to me.

I was cutting the trunk panel to fit the rear strut bar and this is what i get.

[Blackout]

LOL, You forgot the socket. And cordless phone..
Digging the clean trunk. I could eat off of that.

[bernzpeed]

A clean trunk deserves more loving. Better handling anyone??

I used a pry bar and it came out in big chunks. Then there were several chunks that just would not give out. So I used the heat gun then scraped it off. After that, soaked the paint in WD40 and scrubbed away.





A little photo op after a wash from last night and before I started on the trunk.
