Nice and corrosion free headlights! Wish mine were like this... Did you clean your projector lenses too? They look foggy. I cleaned mine with glass cleaner, light output like... quadrupled :D

^ good sir. That pic of them on the counter is actually prior to going in the dishwasher.

After dishwashing I removed projectors and clenaed low beams very good with rubbing alcohol. I also cleaned the projectors. I cant wait to put them in later this week!

Wao. They already look like new (compared to wintersalt-sesoned ones).

Watching this made me feel uncomfortable.

UPDATE :(

I installed some rebuilt fuel injectors from MEPEH here on r3v (he did great work and I recommend him!)

Right after the install the car throws a CEL for the camshaft position sensor. I found the sensor on ebay for a great price (facet brand new old stock) and should be installing it when it arrives, as well as fix my oil filter housing leak.

I am undecided if I want to remove the intake manifold for these projects, but it definitely would help if I did! I think with the oil fitler housing out of the way Ill have enough room.

So I jumped the gun on the sensor... turns out all my new injectors needed was a DME reset.

Clocked 31mpg average on the interstate over a course of 45 miles today :) Also picked up a 70,000 miles ZF320 and some new-to-me tires.

220,800 miles and running strong! I am sending out my UOA (used oil analysis) this week with my liquimoly... will post results here on the forum.

Update - got my smileys installed and learned how easy it is to take the bumper off :) even for one person it was a breeze.. I even used the OEM lugwrench tool to get the 4 nuts off ahahahahaha. Looking like a drift missle.





Pics of my new ZF320 :)





Pics of the smiley install. I used new connectors but junkyard pigtails. I saved roughly $50 this way. The pigtails can be found on every connector that uses this style, I grabbed the 90 degree ones mainly off e36 foglights and windshield washer pumps.

The high beams:



And the lows:



I cut the sealed beam connectors off, and then cut my pigtails to roughly the same length:



Brown is ground so just follow the colors like I did here:





I didnt get pics of the rest but basically just splice them in on car.

I wired my city lights through the sidemarker connectors and disconnected the lead for the sidemarker running lights - though now the OBC tells me the "parking lamp" failure so I need to clean it up.

They sure are pretty though!



And a pic of my new toolbox!

bitchin!

I should also add I got my new federal 595s mounted up on my rear wheels. 235/40R17s on 17X9 - it is my idea of perfect stretch.

Why are you swapping to a 5spd? I am sure you know you have only one leg right? Don't setup some contraption when it is designed for two leg operators.

[5Toes]

Im swapping to a 5 speed to make my car more reliable

[F34R]

How are you going to drive it with one leg? You know there is three pedals right?
