What did you do today to your 3/S?

I want a CF sunroof cover, but have heard they might be troublesome. Looks good though.

I raised the bottom part of my subframe. I moved the engine up and back a while ago so my bottom subframe piece was lower than i needed it to be. Gained another inch of clearance!

Fun's over. Hoping for an easy engine swap without machine work.

I've often wondered how much the rear subframe and front end could be adjusted in a stock application to minimize the angles and help reduce wear on the carrier bearings and DS (perhaps allowing for less vibration from the driveshaft as well, especially if two piece) but is all idle speculation on my part.

Today I've shipped a set of heads and got a shipment of sanding discs in for my DA sander. Have to wire my compressor back up to use it, but shouldn't be too terrible to do a few butt splices.

Local yahoo brought another stealth over, he couldnt figure out why his idle was so high...

I do, McDonalds!

Well, compressor isn't running. If I flip the switch, sometimes it hums and doesn't run, sometimes it runs but surges between high and low power. Not sure what the issue is, but too many other projects to worry ATM.

Beyond that, through careful use of the welder and some light bondo action I fixed a quarter panel.

Before:

After:

Also installed the hoop spoiler today because sleeper. Did what is hopefully the last bits of touch up work to the evil eye mod, and made a tubular rear crash bar to replace my rusted out OEM one (and attaches to the stock shock absorbers).

So most of the cosmetic work on the exterior is done at least aside from the obvious of paint. Under hood and underbody still need work though, and the wiring harness project is looking more unappealing by the day.

Help an ignorant fellow out was it the missing screw? Or the big #10 bolt?
