@ Bryan, I've been working my *** off to get this car done! so not much time for forums anymore, I'll be on more often now. Yep the old strut bar, and it works perfect! Thanks Again!

Yeah I bought a PS3, 2 months before the price drop, in the first month of having it, I clocked in probably 300-400 hrs! No seriously, when I get home at 10:30pm until 6:30am thats all I did!

While I'm on it and thinking about it, the next parts I'm ordering are...

AIV Plug

When I do the motor build, I'm getting the HKS Step 3 Head System, that allows me a 9000 RPM redline, I'm freaking crazy!!!)

Paint Job

The awesome task of pulling motor and tranny, and pulling everything out of the engine bay, ALL the interior, including all wiring, hell I mean EVERYTHING is being removed, for the paint job! Easiest way to say it!

Sorry about the back-to-back posts, didn't notice it, I did a quick reply!

No updates yet.

Just a few things redone...

Resized all images to 640x480

Each picture is (should be) linked to the larger image, so if you want to see it larger, just click on the picture! YEA!

Fixed a few images that had license plate numbers, bad stuff, etc.

Let me know if you click on a link and it doesn't work, or its the wrong image, and anything else, its 5:30am and I'm tired as crap!

Thanks!!!

My PS3 games are...

The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion (My favorite, the game I racked up the 300+ hours)
Full Auto 2: BattleLines
Ridge Racer 7
Formula 1 Championship Edition (Favorite of the Racing Games)

I'm waiting for Blacksite: Area 51 to come out this month, so thats my next game, then just wait until the other 10 or so games that I want to come out! I have a list somewhere but can't find it!

I can get on PSN, but with my internet connection dropping every 5-30minutes, I don't even try to do anything on it. My internet is wireless highspeed, but I live around trees, which blocks my signal line, so the connection drops quite often, 8-30 per night!!! All I have to do is get a taller pole for the antenna, but its $75. and I really don't want it yet, I can deal with the dropped connections for now, until my car is done!

Well I ordered a few more parts today.

The DriveShaft Shop Steel Driveshaft is on backorder by DSS, they are having problems getting the yokes needed to build them, but other than that everything went as planned.

When I get the parts in I'll let you know what they are!

Oh, one the other hand, I did have something go wrong with my car. The road I live on is bumpy as hell!

The road vibrated two bolts loose from a bracket that holds my passanger door window up, so I can't roll it up, I can't get the bracket back on! Luckly the window was down when the bracket fell off, so my window didn't break or shatter or anything on the bad side!

It rained Sunday and Monday, so Sunday while I was at work, I pulled my door panel off, and placed over my seat and took towels and covered the seat and the panel so they wouldn't get soaked as much. Monday I had off, so it keep dry in my shop!

I work at a gas station, but I also do mail order catalog sales with my customers that come into the store. So I make my week check, and also make money while making money, selling my products from my catalog at work!

From my mail order catalog, I have about 10 family members and 5 friends that sale for me also. I bring in about $2000.-$5000. monthly.

I can't wait for the christmas holiday, last October through November I brought in almost $15,000. from 15 people, who sale for me, plus whatever I bring in. I got about $9,000. from the $15,000. I had to pay them, but still!

I only got several things, but it's still good!

Agency Power AT to MT Braided Stainless Steel Clutch Line:


Rear Heater Hose Kit, Clamps, and AIV Plug:


3 Bottles of Red Line MT-90 Gear Fluid:


And thats it for today!!!

I'm still waiting on for about another 4 more packages.

One won't be shipped out until late this month or early next month, but thats fine with me, its not super important. Its the Circuit Sports Aluminum Coolant Tank.

I'm also still waiting on the ???? Sorry can't tell you guys what I'm waiting for. I love the suspense, of waiting for parts to come in!!!

Its not car parts, but I like how Heavy Throttle packaged my item above, it works and I got 7 Large UPS envelopes, I just had to throw them up on here, I think its a perfect way to ship gear fluid!!!:
