Been busy and broke. Typical in this hobby.

My paint guy did the match for door, fender, and bumper for $400 after damaging the car at summit. If anyone has a better person who is cheaper and still does perfect match i would like to know but I think I got a good deal. Also fitted the oem wheels in with some spacers






Autocross at fedex this sunday because im not ready for drift valley :/ No money for tires or renting a trailer.


attacking the q45 interior side of the harness. Are they any vh45 guys who have anything they suggest I keep that is or isnt obvious?


love/hate frp. womped the ground and it broke so now I have this sweet racing stripe.....:yucky:


trying to actually do this ebrake





cleaning mud from 200dod still. noobing. finally done? still looks dirty

Haven't been up to much, but regular maintenance, still the daily driver

new wheels, beat the crap out of the bumper on speedbumps and the road, mudflaps to hopefully keep melted rubber off the car, gone through a few more sets of tires

Modifying your trans for the Z Speed Performance HEAVY DUTY CSC (Concentric Slave Cylinder)

Our transmissions have the slave cylinder on the inside and it goes out pretty often, at least on the HR models. My car had it happen twice before 90k. Once with the PO.

The Z Speed Heavy Duty slave is so much beefier than the plastic OEM style ones. Also it comes with an easy bleeder line that makes bleeding your clutch super simple. Worth every penny

I ran into some images I took of how to modify the trans because everyone gets kinda scared putting a grinder to their car for some reason haha

Took about 8 hours to get everything off the car and back on

take off the csc and one cover inside the trans after removing it, grind the three tabs flat with a grinder where you had the previous slave bolted, then clean up any shavings and reinstall.

Change out the gear oil in your trans while youre there
