Not today but on Sat I installed the 3sx hard preturbo pipes (sounds MUCH better) and red Samco hoses on the VR4.

Nothing on the 3s still. I pulled the work truck into the shop to change the oil this morning. It had 6500 miles since the last oil change and when I pulled the drain plug I got about 1.5 qts out of it.
I'll have to keep an eye on the oil level when I fill up (I do that once or twice a week anyway) and probably let the boss know when we hit 3000 miles and just do the change then.

No, my newish JDM tranny with like 2000 miles on it exploded or something.
Sounds epic bad, lol.
Got on with fitting my Pit Road type R intercooler -
Now with a big intercooler (its 24" x 12" x 4.5")... time for a bit of cutting and chopping my (original Jap spec i might add) 99 bumper ...
There was a lot of this -
Lots of off and on the car to check the fit -
and more of this -
To finally have a great fit !
Quite chuffed how its going right now - i have so much else of the car coming together, might be going for a start in the next few weeks - its been 2 years since the last one!

This is a bit of a catch-up post for me.
I was working on this...

So now I'm working on this.

13Ts, 560s, etc. And a Koyo.
Rear turbo heat shield is the last real obstacle.... I can't possibly imagine what they were thinking with that bottom bolt location.

If you weld two wrenches together to make a super long wrench (like 14") you can reach that bolt from the bottom without doing anything extraordinary.
