Update Time.
Got a lot of stuff done today.
-24# injectors
-6x9 Infinity Reference series
-Roll rear fenders
-take of trans exhaust hanger
-wink mirror
-fix surprise electrical issues.
so its the first day of spring break and I have the garage to myself. Spent about 6 hours today working on the car. Very soothing and relaxing with all the drama and shit that has been going on around here lately.
So in chronological order. I have been having fueling issues. Namely my engine has been ripping off pintle caps and orings. Weird right? plus at the high end (over 6K) the car was leaning out. So I figure 24# injectors be a good solution. These are the newer type 3 bosch style that I prefer. Cleaned them in a sonic bath, checked out resistance, looked good to me so I swapped them in. kinda of a PIA but w/e. Car drops to very low AFR ~11 under wot now. Its been raining here all day so i couldnt really try it out, but lets just say the I have wheel spin through the first 4 gears. Feels good man.
Also I got a good deal on Infinity reference series 6x9 speakers. One thing I learned from my recent trip to austin is that the exhaust is loud, the car is loud, the sound system is not. These bad boys give way more bass, more clean sound, and make the car tolerable. Excellent investment. I tried to get the stock covers on top but it just wasnt working, so I will have to come up with something else for covers later.
Once that good stuff was in it was now time to roll the rear fenders.
rolled vs unrolled
This thing has been doing nothing under the car for a while.
Last thing for the day was a 5 panel wink mirror
Works great. Overall a good day.
PS. Found two wires that looked like they were cut near the ECU. Turned out to be o2 sensor and some black wire i dont know. put them back together. May have been actual reason behind the fueling issues.
