Slowly but surely:




Aaron (aka JohnBradley) sent me my first ROM, so needless to say I'm STOKED to get 'er up and running.


I'm headed over to JMFab tomorrow to get my T-Stat housing and radiator welded for -12an fittings, and I'm getting the last few things from Paul at JNZ, so as soon as I get a Valve Cover and ECU I can get the ball rolling.


Decided today that I'm keeping these guys:




I'm going to run a 265/35, a 10mm spacer up front, and have the fenders rolled flat. If I need to I'll pick up the EvoDave FenderMod, but I don't think I'll have to with the 265s. Any input on fitting them is appreciated!

Talked with Jim today and we came up with another solution!


Worked on the car a bit today.


Cleaned the wheels a little better. I'm ordering a fourth wheel tomorrow. Thus, if anyone wants to purchase my BBS' they'll be up for sale with tires. 


If anyone has a used set of 265/35/18 tires, let me know!!!




Timed the motor and cleaned my gross cam gears:




Got Jim @JMFab to weld on my fittings for my custom upper coolant hose setup!





A few more OEM Parts came in today!




Painted the coolant hose that goes on the back of the block with some rattle can wrinkle silver. It doesn't look half bad!




I purchased a Stock ECU and a Valve Cover today. She's starting to come together!


Oh, and here's my wheels on Apexi Silver. I CAN'T WAIT to get them on.
