What did you do today to your 3/S?

Today and the past couple days I haaaave:

New SB OFE Stage 3 clutch

Tossed on a powdercoated plenum to do away with the wrinkle finish, swapped cam seals end caps and cleaned plug wires

Tossed my solid shifter bushings from ebay and threw on the bearings from my old skateboard :)

Also replaced water housing gaskets and oring, turbo oil drain line gaskets, rear main seal, removed clutch vacuum assist, installed new precat eliminators and my new 25 spline transmission, swapped all copper banjo bolt washers except for on the rear turbo, cleaned up and polished a bunch of stuff that you have yet to see in pics and am waiting on my new tcase as well as one last end cap to be able to button things up and see where the new leaks are! Been busy, that's for sure :) And now my two week summer vacation is over :(

Drove it to band practice and back home.....Loved every minute of it.

I don't think it's ever ran this good. (knock on wood)

ooo, shiny clutch, i should have drawn on mine more.

i always thought they looked like they'd fit. i'm gonna put some iiin! did you take the actual bearings out? better to use bearings with some spin or without? i'd guess without.

lol I was going to write all over it but no time...no time...They are a tight fit but it's amazing how almost perfect they are for those damn cables. If only they were red :P I loosened them up with some WD before tossing them on but don't think it will make too much of a difference. My solid bushings were binding up so I left one stock and the other solid. Can't wait to give these guys a go :)

lol it's like a diamond in the rough right now :P Going to mask off the polished intake plenum and spray the recessed part where the letters are to try and match that powder on the valve cover. I've got a whooooole 'nother week to tinker with this car before I can move it. Definitely crossing my fingers that the rear main and end caps are in the correct depth.

Spend away:


96 wing

I had to replace the idler pulley on my car after the trip back from the NG. Those damn things just don't like water hitting them. Anyway, while I had the drivers side wheel off, I decided the calipers looked a bit tired. Plus, I never really liked the red Carbotech pads with my blue calipers. So, it went from this...

to this...

Now, I have to get my ass back to the garage and do the other 3 wheels.
