Bout that time where I jus dump a bunch of pictures on this thread
JDM Beach day
Some throwbacks
Parking lot shots lol
Running mismatched wheels atm to save my tire from too much shoulder wear, just had an alignment after installing this set looks like I might need some new parts on the front end..
No mechanical updates yet besides I noticed that the bottom bolt for the turbo outlet flange fell out and is leaking exhaust, probably causing my partial throttle issues jus the same as if a wastegate was stuck partially open.. Full exhaust is next on the list

Alright so for now ill just hold off on the full exhaust I just went ahead and had the ebay downpipe's bung relocated onto my down pipe and as i did this I realized I had a pretty massive exhaust leak from the turbo housing thru the 1 hole that i cant put a real bolt in for the downpipe 5 bolt flange, headless bolt backed itself out, plugged it up better this time to where the bolt wont back itself out and it is back to running as usual my partial throttle issues seem to be fixed, and the wideband hooked up readings seem normal, just a temporary spot for now
And I noticed my shifter moving back and forth excessively in and out of throttle, so i knew somthing was up and this is what i found lol 60a inserts were not enough I wasnt aware they had a horsepower rating and i am only 60whp above it, But with the life time warranty im not mad goin to upgrade to 85a bushings as well
