Just got done with the shifter. Pretty easy job especially because I did it before on my 97. Almost cut my finger off trying to use a pair of wire cutters as retaining ring pliers but I survived

Next week I should be greeted with 15ft of vac line and some other goodies...

 

Yay!

I think karma has come back to bite me in the ***. I think I ordered the wrong extended bolts the other night. I need 14mm instead of 12mm. I'm not sure which one I ordered though...

 

no worries, you can always return them right? I can't wait to see pics with those spacers on, they should look sick

 

Yea! I'll just return them, but I hope I can get them before H2o...

You're going right? I want (need) to see your ****** *** again soon.

 

lmao yeah i'm goin. OCMD is only a coupla hours from me

 

Just discovered this morning that if i turn the sunroof switch a couple clicks shy of fully opened, that buffeting goes away. Maybe thats why they put a little mark right there? lol

 

got 15' of silicone vac line in the mail today, plus i bought a piece of that 3M DiNoc stuff they sell on ECS. The trim around my shifter is all scratched and jacked up, so i covered it to make it match the rest of the dash. Took me about an hour, and with a hair dryer and a little bit of jimmying i think it turned out really well.

After:


Gonna try to change all the vac lines tomorrow sometime, depending on work.

 

You are getting stuff done REAL quick with this car. I like it. Looking good. Proud of you, son.

 

replaced every vac line i could find. I don't think i had any huge leaks or anything but my vacuum at idle went up to about 22 in. hg. so it definitely wasn't a terrible idea.

 

good job. now go buy a roll of 48"x100' of that stuff and do your car in flat black haha. your interior is so clean, like mine.
