What did you do today to your 3/S?

[Chris@Rvengeperformance]

found that adapter! fell right in front of where the rear brake and fuel lines go down towards the back of the car. checked the trans fluid and it was 4 ounces too full, checked the t-case and it was 3 ounces too low, lol.

Built the rear motor mount yesterday for 4g64 block. Uses the stock 4g block mount and what I built just attaches to the subframe at the stock 6g72 mtr mount location. So all of the mounts are now complete and everything is solidly mounted...Maximal trans mount. Custom drivers side, rear and front crossmember/mount.
(the glossy paint and pics make the welds look weird, but they look decent in person)



Completed the hotside intercooler piping a couple days ago. 2.5" to 3".

You should send me the mount so I can powder coat it for you...

Intercooler pipes need powdercoated too Oh, and valve cover and catch can.

[DrGonzo]

Depending on the size of the inetrcooler pipes I may be able to do them. My over is only so big. Max I can fit in the oven is a TT plenum right now. I eventually need to build a larger one. Valve cover and catch can wouldn't be an issue.

Not really much car related accomplished today due to work. Monday is my last day off this winter break before classes start again, unfortunately the plumber is supposed to show up then to replace this fucking hot water heater (which has started pumping rust out after about 10 minutes of running hot water and is still puking small amounts of water out of the spigot on the tank and out of a valve on top.) It'd be nice to finally get it done.

Have money in my pocket that I will be sitting on for a bit, but hopefully ordering my welder at the end of the month. Set to launch my poly front end bushings around that time, should have my rear bushings completed prototyping at that point, so big expenses but hopefully big returns on the horizon. Hopefully stuff works out and I can get money rolling through to help speed this rebuild along, would be nice to bring it with me to what should be my first NG (provided my sister doesn't give birth at the same time.)

I dipped a set of R/T tail-lights today...LOL



The light portion is taped off and the pic was taken right after the part was dipped so it is still wet. I'll be adding a tinted inner clear and then a satin top coat. I may have it all done tomorrow depending on how I feel.

I got these off of a junk yard car and they were a little dinged up. I didn't feel like wet sanding the shit out of them so this is a test...

[Boomer3000]

Would love to see how well the light goes through them

[DrGonzo]

The light won't go through the CF. The area that the light comes out of is taped off.

Here is the before dip photo showing the portion that the light comes out of is taped off:


The whole assembly will be smoke tinted and then cleared.
