I've been busy...
I dono if anyone really cares but I'm making a post about it anyway. lol.
Anyway I havn't been on much aside from 5 mins here and there. A few weeks ago I was doing a few painting projects and last week I got a job because I was sick of painting crap and wanted money for some real parts. btw it's like a catch 22, before I had time to work on my car but no money. Now I have money to work on my car but no time.
I got a Earl Shieb paint job so that means that the engine bay, trunk, and inside the gas lid wasn't painted so I ghetto fixed the engine bay. My brake drums were rusted and all the paint chipped off of them so I found some paint I like and redid them, I am redoing the front brakes later. I'm also still looking for a z6 valve cover then painting it the same color with black letters.
Next, 2... almost 3 months after someone broke into my car I still do not have an air intake, just a screen ducktaked to the throttle body. I have ordered an ebay intake and they finaly sent it to me 2 weeks later and it was a short ram and I ordered a cold air so I sent it back. They said they would send me another and then when they got the short ram back that I sent them they said they don't have a cai so I said f it and got my money back. Ok... I buy another from another seller and they send me an intake for a f-ing grand cherekee, I send it back to them and ask them to send me my cai, guess what they did? They sent me the grand cherekee intake back to me again. I got my money but and I'm not sending the intake back to them... I'm just going to sell it. I'm probably going to buy a v2 now though. Depends on if I decide if I want to swap my engine or keep it I will be doing a compression test soon and depending on what happens that will make up my mind, if it fails then I am just going to find a stock air box probably and save for a h22... maybe. Also, I will have a megan racing drift spec on the way after I get the intake thing figured out.
This post is getting insanely long so I'm just gonna post a few pictures now.
When I had the wheel off to paint the brakes I found a hole in my exhaust... Instead of having it welded that is why I deided to buy the megan racing catback.
I also installed Bomz racing seats a while ago and I will write a diy on it when I have time. (my camera sucks, they are kind of red in the picture but they are really dark black.)
