Paint that coolant res black. And I like the diagnostic plug mod. Verry clean.

I really like that idea for the diagnostic port. I might have to steal that idea from you ;)

Take it away!

Got the driveshaft in with new CSB

Diff is in, just waiting on bolts for the half shafts

Did another little beauty mod and painted the rear spoiler black


Removed the SRS/Airbag brain finally

I got the wiring harness covers on, tough fit but they work. Thought of a cool way to mount the diagnostic port, looks good to me




I fear that I might have to take off the intake manifold to unkink the top heater core hose, didn't realize this until I installed it.

Heater doesn't get very warm

Spent a little time getting the diff ready to put in before work. Just need to add fluid to it
Its a 3.25lsd that I bought from a friend for super cheap.
Swapped output flanges

New gasket ready to go on. Wire wheel'd all the bolts and the tag for the diff

Sealed up

Not too shabby. I like all red tails myself.

I think it gives it a good look, especially on Alpine cars.

First shot of the overall car in awhile.
Since my buddy wanted to do all red tails for his e30 I finally did the first little beauty mod for the car.
Once, she is mechanically solid and actually driving, more mods will be done.

Excuse the dirty car

[craiggroves91]

I appreciate it

MAF's certainly do make a difference. Haha

Good work man.

Thanks! :)
Can't wait to take her out for a spin. Driveshaft bolts are the only thing stopping me from doing so
