Default Some pics of the fun I have been having

I finally got down to installing some of my parts that I have been ordering.
Got the MIL eliminators wired in on the o2 sensors to get rid of the SES light from the testpipes.

Got the stock manifolds off in preparation for the return of my topspeed headers from JetHot. Not to brag, but got the stock manifolds off in less than 3 hrs without the use of air tools or removal of coolant lines or AC compressor.

Installed the clear side markers on the front bumper

Installed the unorthodox crank pulley and belts

Played around and intalled the mossy short throw shifter

prepped for the Injen install once I get the headers in, get my throttle body back and get the crawford plenum.

Redid the hoses on the EVAP box from my Greddy install. I went and bought longer hoses so I didn't have to splice the hoses to make them fit.

Also installed my S2000 Antenna

Now, the only other things that need to be done are the SPC camber arms, which are on back order, but should be here this week, install the crawford plenum (waiting for release) and bored throttle body, which I'll have this week. And not to forget, get a dry fitting of my Wald body kit that will be here this week, so it can get painted.

Pics for your enjoyment:










Just thought you might want to see pics of my fat tires:

Looks like fun, but hard work though!

Although your tire is measured that wide your contact patch is only 7.5", looks like 8"? in the back. My stock 17's have like 8.5" contact patch in the rear (tire to ground) the same width as you.

The white part on the tire is the part that contacts with the ground.

How is the radio reception with the S2k antenna? Is it just a direct screw on replacement?

Yes its a direct replacement, reception like 90% outta 100 for me. But it depends on area, where you live relative to the towers, land, buildings etc.

Wheel and tire combo:
SSR Comp-H 18X9 Front wheels with 265/35YR-18 Kumho ECSTA MX rubber
SSR Comp-H 18X10.5 Rear wheels with 295/35YR-18 Kumho ECSTA MX rubber

Opened the door this morning and my headers were back from JetHot. Fedex came early today:
