But yeah no wiper or defroster or antenna or badges on the back of my car... I'm eyeballing the z emblems and they might not be on for much longer.

O and I no rinse washed the car today and drive it to a family function... And filled it up with some 93.

for sure! I'm doing it next weekend actually, so I'll update you. I'll just have more access to what I need when I'm at my parent's place.

I'm not "into the craze" I just think it'll look cleaner without it.

But yeah, as I've said many times before... "I like my rear wiper. It wipes my (gl)*** clean for me."
haha I rarely find myself needing to use it, and I think it looks better without a bulky ugly wiper. Honestly I only turn it on when it's been raining and my car was sitting. To keep it clean I just actually clean my windows when my car is sitting. For me washer fluid and the wipers only gets big bugs that just splatted off.

Although they are careful, I still would have been even more of a nervous wreck than I already was today

Finally got my finished block in. VQ HR/VHR block, iron dry sleeves, RJM closed deck, sandblasted, hot tanked, bored to 96mm.

Got in my Weld 15" beadlocks. Got in tires, MT 295/55/15

Installed my tires on Weld 15" beadlock wheels, still need a balancing.

Shaved calipers to fit the wheels.

Test fitted everything.
