    Attempted to photograph my A-pillar gauges to show them off. My digital cam could not focus at night and my phone took a great photo but the color of the gauges is way off as compared to the human eye, I am almost embarrassed to bratg about this, but I swear that the ILL font looks closer than this pic shows:

    Got a crap ton of parts posted on the 3S Facebook groups to try to get money together and clear space at the new house. Cleaning the garage out and trying to get room to store everything.

    Trip to NC this weekend, and a stop in SC to see the Ninjas, and when I get back I will hopefully be towing up a 3000lb lawn ornament

    As well as shelving and several more boxes of parts to try to get sorted and sold. Thankfully I have a spare room to fit them all for now.

    Still waiting to hear back from the machine shop on cost for the machine work, need a new Ds rear trailing arm, and lots of new hardware for suspension and subframes and stuff as mine look exceedingly awful but that's the bare minimums necessary to reassemble and get it running if I want/need to. However I will likely go ahead and do a wire tuck and replace connectors and such as mine is showing every bit of its age.

    You have a game plan on the wire tuck? I keep thinking about it (and delete wiring from all removed systems) each time I tear into the engine bay but it's overwhelming for me so I just skip it and put it back together as is. Where would you put fuse box? Fender like I've seen some do?

    Probably inside the car honestly, inside where the airbag would otherwise be on a 2G dash.

    Game plan is still being formulated. New connectors from Sheridan Engineering and running new wires that won't crack and corrode. Milspec bulkheads around where factory fuel filter mounts to make quick and easy engine and trans removal and install. Just undo those connections to pull and allow harness reinstall on the stand.

    I've been chasing a bad parasitic drain problem since I've owned the car, as well as problems with the always on battery voltage to the cabin being intermittent. Has caused problems trying to flash ecu, as well as trim resets with the stock ecu. Hell even getting the radio to stay going has been iffy. So redoing the wiring and grounds has been on to do list for a while. Especially for the engine bay and ECU stuff. Throw in a planned Diamante DCC swap, and many broken wires and it just makes more and more sense to make a whole new harness.

    Hey Forest did you ever get the MAFT dialed in? Any differences in driveability/power?

    My pdr guy drilled a hole in the fender well to get one they couldn't reach. Plugged it after. May be an option if it's a bad one.

    I thought about that, its right on the fender lip where the pieces come together. It isn't terrible, but it catches my eye. I'm worry if they tried drilling in that spot it could rust later. I may get a second opinion though, thank you.
