Default My mini-rained-out photoshoot (56k, give it a try, JK DON'T!)

So, I wanted to update my photo library with new pictures of my car. Since it's been nothing but rain, I had to shoot in the garage. I figure I'd add some progress pictures as well.

These are some shots from a week ago when I swapped my dying Z6 (S20 B000) trans with a crappy differential to a new(er) Y8 (S40 B000) trans. yay
While the car was out-of-service, I also changed the spark plugs, replaced a dust boot on the power steering rack, replaced the driver's side outer tie rod, replaced the driver's side front lower engine mount, installed the energy suspension engine mount inserts, and put on a AEM Dryflow filter. I think that's everything...

I have over 500 miles on the new(er) trans now. I was the bestman in my brother's wedding, which was held in Minnesota, so I had driven well over 16 hours just this weekend.

Here are some mini-cones I got in bulk for use on the tow hook. Gotta rep Autocross!!

Finally swapped to interior to black. I couldn't find a genuine black dash, so I had to dye the vinyl to black. I used VHT's Vinyl dye.

Other than a few minor personal dislikes, the car looks great. What seats are those?

Lol, yeah, with autocross, and if I ever get a flat, having the sub mounted SUCKS. It's my daily driver so I have to keep it functional. The bungee cord holds it great! and it never rolls or bounces.
