Well todays prgress suspension is installed, but this evening as I was cleaning up for the night I realized I forgot to put a little rubber bumper thing in the right rear, DOH!!!![:@]Anywaise also radiator was put back in, I had a friend modify my AEM intake so it will work til I can get a permanent fix, any idea of how I might go about getting a short ram to fit properly? Also the header was put on. Here are pictures from today. only a few.

So tomorrows plan, put in all the fluids, finish all the little odds and ends vacuum hoses last few plug ins, put the interior back together, finish the rear brake job and then bleed the brakes. And then theoretically I will be ready to give the start. So yes tomorrow is the start date. today went down the tube becasue the wrecking yard I was picking up parts from just jacked me around. Oh speedy turtle since I put new struts in to I just pulled all 4 strut assemblies out and assembled the new stuff and put them back in.

high idle might be a vacuum leak.

I want to hear everyones thoughts, oh I am thinking about putting my stock seats back in, the sparcos kind of create a blind spot for me, however I am going to give it some time and see if that changes.
