Needs List (incomplete) :
•
New home :) Have another project ready to come out of the garage and sadly just
need room
•
Transmission needs to be rebuild: on full throttle slips in 2nd gear, regular
driving - no notable transmission issues
•
Proper tune, currently it has a Speed Density tune - was given help from fellow
co worker how to tune it and that's how it is.
Never tuned it properly since
transmission needs to be rebuilt.
•
I had a/c before cam swap, then moved engine 1/2 inch forward and then the hose
for expansion valve to compressor was too short.
Now.... I see it was an easy
fix, but I already re used the old parts instead of just putting hose
splice in :(
Paint Job
•
Wheels have been separated, cleaned, failed clear coat from the barrels has been
removed with aircraft stripper and not re-cleared.
wheels have a chalky dull finish now :(
takes a lot of polish to get them back to shiny.
•
Headliner needs to be redone
• Headlight assemblies are OEM halogen, retrofitted with FX-R projectors and
covers have been replaced with ebay euro style years ago, and have yellowed.
• All 4 door brakes are cracking - needs to be replaced
• All ABS sensors are probably original and the plastic/rubber is falling apart
along with wire insulation / copper wire is exposed
