Long story short...

The cars done. I haven't really felt like updating lately. Finished the car last thursday and got it inspected and legal last sunday. The car is a blast to drive, the coils feel sooooo good and the trans shifts so smooth. Sadly, I didn't have the Q45 output shafts, so the diff wasn't working, so I just threw an open in there for the time being. I'm going to need one for winter or else I'll never survive the snow...

Here's underneath the car with the ShaftMasters (HAHA) driveshaft, brand new hardware, etc.


While chilling at Galens, this gem pulled in. Did you ever think you'd see an MX6 look THIS good? Neither did I. Tree also got his FC running and legal as well. Here are some pictures of the three together.


Expect an update tomorrow night or something. We're getting the whole gang to go to York.

"I'm not gay, but I listen to Depeche Mode."

What a friday night it was. Of course, I didn't have my real camera, so garbage cell pictures will just have to work. Tom and I cruised up to Josh's house to check out his new S12. Dale showed up and we decided to hit up the circuit. It was pretty lame; typical ricers trying to be cool, etc. We stopped to get gas at the new Rutters and saw a couple of Honda guys chillen, so we decided to hang out. Turns out thats the place to be; it got pretty busy. 469hp single turbo Supra showed up. Turbo Z33; Kevin's new S14 with RB25; turbo MR2 and a couple of other little gems.



More updates soon.

It's out...

Anyway, onto the pilot bearing soon.

Oh, Keegan's car is done. SEX.

Glossy!

Tore out the driveshaft and open diff today. I also threw the viscous unit in. Painted the cover and the bolts. Uneventful, really.

Going out to dinner with the lady here in a few. More updates later.

PICS.


PS- I'm aware that that white won't last on the bolts, I was bored.

I've done the impossible!

I've finally found a good use for an open diff!

For when you're too lazy to go find a BFH, you use an open diff to pound in your output shafts.

Small update

Tonight we got the car up on ramps. It was pretty interesting trying to push the car up there because the jack is still holding Keegan's subframe up. Got the driveshaft unbolted from the trans to train it. Hmmm what else went down... Oh, my spare diff siezed. wtf. Going to have to pull the one out of the car now and throw the viscious in there; not a biggy but oh well. Going to take a stab at getting the diff and driveline unbolted tomorrow before work.

This is how she sits tonight.
