What did you do today to your 3/S?

Installed a 3.5 motor into a 91 stealth,, need to hook up the accessories another day

Let's see, more of a weekend wrap up..
Tested the Evans for water content. 0%
Re-torqued the head studs. Replaced the spark plugs. Began to mock up the new ignition system. Took measurements for the new intercooler. Stood there and looked at it for a good 1/2 hour. :)

My exhaust needs to be adjusted, my muffler got hooked coming off of Marks trailer after the ECG and now it's hitting something under the car. A rock hit one of my fog lights, breaking the lens. I've been thinking about swapping the HID's for LED's, so I guess now is the time. I also busted my front lip on a curb in Indy, so I guess that means a new RetroSpec carbon fiber lip to replace that. Already ordered a new MAF, the one in the car is original. Although it still works, it's noisy as hell when I accelerate. Radiator needs replacing, it's probably more than 15 years old. Oh, and I still haven't figured out what wrong with my cruise control. These 1200 mile drives are tough enough, not having cruise control makes it even worse.

We went the whole NG without dropping a trans, you should have said you needed the clutch done!

Tom's not the kind of guy to let a whole bunch of people work on his car 😄

Well it wasn't today, but on Saturday I converted my front end from a 92 to a 98 front end and put on a VIS carbon fiber hood.

Only car peeps understand this. I do that all the time and my wife will give me trouble. It's strangely satisfying just looking at it. I just mocked the interior back in then sat and stared at the bone stock nothing special interior for a while lol

He had the 3SX pre-cat delete pipe but of course the fitment was so terrible he decided gutting a stock pre-cat would be better.

I still remember the 3SX crew swapping the clutch in Eric's car in about 30 min. during the Memphis drags. That's why we need those guys to attend again.

I could imagine a crew of people who work on 3s's a lot doing a clutch swap in 30 minutes. Hell one time I dropped the trans out of my car laying on my back in the driveway in about 40 minutes by myself with having to run into the garage for tools as I needed them. Had I had 2 more people with the experience of removing transmissions that I have it probably could have been done in that time period.

Then again, I don't know many people who have removed a 3s trans as much as I have. :lol:

NA transmissions are super easy. After a few times its not even a big deal.
