What did you do with your car today?

ordered a SPEC stage 2+ clutch kit, New AEM Wideband today. next order in FEB. will be cams, sump fuel cell, and takin it in for E85 tune

 

New battery yay! Still has issues starting boo!

 

my 86 is no longer green =) its now red, soon an AWESOME color

 

A much needed detailing to get the dirt off from the fall cruise.

 

I got this stuff waiting to be put on the car

 

As I recall when you showed me your car at Wagners last summer, there was almost no room for even your finger to get in there! How's that going to fit?

 

I think it should fit.... i think, lol. It will be tight but I will make it work

 

you may have to trim it, but it should work

 

Wot box yesterday. about to head back down and put in the new boost gauge and turbo timer!

 

got it kind of fitted today, it looks like I actually will not have to trim anything. There seems to be only one clearance issue and that is with a bracket. I will also have to make a mount for the filter end to lift it up a bit. Nothing is really mounted right now, its all just kind of test fitting

 

Picked up a step colder plugs today also gapping them down to .027 to see if that helps my ignition issues.

 

Is it bad if that gap sounds HUGE to me?

 

Nope Depending on it goes I may gap them even further down. I fully expect these to only last 5-6k miles

 

I'd love a set of plugs to last me that long... Current ones are going on like 3k and it's just a waiting game.

But no, I'm used to .027 stock, .024 proper gap down for stock-mild pump gas, and am at .018 on E85. Shit's cray.

 

Thats pretty cray. Ill be doing mine every oil change just because I don't want to replace them in between oil changes at 1.83 per plug I can't complain its less than my oil filter.

1.8t big turbo guys usually go .025 on pump .027 should be perfect for my needs

 

I crawled under it and didn't fix anything.

Also disabled ABS so I can actually stop in this shit.

 

^we did decide you should get a shiny new radiator though.

Swapped my plugs in had spaz double check my gap.
Did an oil change, emptied out my catch can which wasnt as full as I thought it was.

Already noticed a huge difference in the plugs all the partial throttle missing nastiness is gone.
The car idles better and for some reason the tone it makes sounds deeper.

 

You mean you decided that I need to put something on my list that's been on my list for a year.

 

Lol yeah thats it. It was more of an excuse to finally put one in

 

derpwagon also has radiators on the 'to buy' list.
