money at this point isnt even an issue at this point. lol. i have all of my receipts at work from the past 2 months i saw a few figures..**** myself..and just kept laying invoice on invoice. got my plates today..bought plugs..rbf600..and a few other things to try to stay ahead of the game so there are not too many bumps in the road this weekend. hopefully we get it fired and driving. tranny is still apart..i need to tidey up some electrical stuff in the cabin. once it is fired i still need to get the front bumper and lip painted as well as get the exhaust welded together. once the car is in good running order then i will get the dent fixed and painted. also need to wire up the cluster. seems like alot but we have been doing a good job of getting it done in a timely fashion.
since i have kind of been hush hush about it..here is the deal. working 3 jobs until april..now i still work 6 days a week so sunday is the day in the garage with me and 2 buddies. any other day is kind of off limits due to the little one..need my family time. car as of the sunday after easter..sitting on steelies and blown shocks with h r springs on it. interior fully stripped as in only the wire harness and steering column(if you are a fbook friend of mine there are probably mobile uploads of it from along while ago when i was stripping everything down). motor was still in the car had not been pulled to repair the trans.
so back onto the rebuild of it so far. last weekend had to replace the full right rear hardline. replace both lower ball joints because the person i bought the gsr brakes off of hit the bare ball joint stud with a hammer.
had to get new rear calipers because one was frozen and the other had a really bad tear in the piston but so said f it get both. went to work and got both then said f it get new fronts too. lol. putting my seat on the memoryfab rails was rediculous..brackets looks like this L L so it offsets my seat a bit. the biggest bitch of all has been the tranny. i bought the tranny in this state "shifts fine and no grinds..just the axle seal bearing was installed crooked." open it up. diff is fuuuuucking worked. so the whole tranny was torn apart and hot tanked. bigger mesh but moving on. bought a diff of someone on here supposed to be a 98+ usdm itr one. well the speedo gear on the diff had a few nicks on it so it chatters when the speedo shaft is in. so decide we will mix and match gsr parts with my jdm b16 tranny. well diff doesnt sit right in the bell housing ok back to square one. get it all in..umm yep fd gear wont mess. sooo it.s jdm.
pretty much the clifs of my past month. it.s been awesome. wouldnt change it for anything except maybe some more family time and/or some track time. oh well if he kicks over and runs this weekend then i will be signing up for bmwcca school at putnam so i can get a track shakedown before itr expo! im ready to do work for the squad!

james had a good game last night pretty sure sports center said he had a triple double. one man can win a championship in the this league now a days. i think the last one to pull that off will be wade. i hate the celtics for every reason you can think of. i hate kg and rondo the most. two very cheap players. sorry i dont think anyone is going to stop the magic's this year. not even the lakers. i have a feeling james is not going to be in clevland next season.
(Notice that one mask says fire doc- Doc Rivers- Head Coach)
All of a sudden they get Jesus Shuttlesworth (Ray Allen) and Kevin Garnett and now they are:

As far as the Heat, Ive been a fan for a long while (although basketball isnt my sport). Dwayne Wade is my fav, although he didn't win it by himself. Just a little help:

Jeff you gotta remember, The Heat went to a eastern conference finals when we first got Shaq and Wade carried them on his back while having a rib injury (this was the year before they won it against the Mavericks).
Pics from the Game 7:

And he still didn't pass the ball, but ever since then he has become the nightmare. I hope we keep him.

has spark and has fuel. new timing belt is on. new plugs..no new cap or rotor but the cap and rotor dont have over 15000 miles on them. adjusted the valves but we think that is where the problem is..seems that one of the intake valves are hanging open because it is backfiring out of the intake. if the lash adjustment doesnt fix it then we.ll do a compression test. just ready for it to run..need to shake it down a bunch before it hits the track.
hi squaddies... i wanted to post up another teaser just because this is the furthest stage i can go at the moment since im jobless again. Hopefully I can come up w/ another job quick so i can continue my progress on getting her up and running.
