May 25th

Spent another day playing around. Ya, work is play. I'm good like that. I stoopidly left a box ful of replacement parts at home. Brought a $h!t ton of other stuff, but that 1 box had quite a lot in it. So I accomplished other tasks. Mostly asthetic.. As the box had go-go parts in it. Worked on removing wireharness after i finally found the one that will go in. Slowly putting the enterior back to good shape. Cleaned up a lil more of the engine bay. But really, today (10 am-8pm) was mostly asthetic. Bummer, but was still productive.

Filling in soem blanks between the process... I sold off all the jdm goodies quite some time ago. clear corners went too. Than some time around this year i think i picked up a 90 Familia rear garnish with rear fogs. Hacked off them bad boys. got the rear spoiler properly installed..

Today.. sucked.. I dragged the bp to the front of the car. then the tranny too. can't them together right.. Alignment issue. I borrowed a clutch aligmnet tool, think i got it done. just don't feel comfotorable with it. Thinking it's still off. Got a call from the fam. issues.. had to come home right away after only getting a couple hours on the car.

crap.. i need the pics uploaded as i have some questions but can't find the card rearer!!!! btw, does the sohc intake work on a bp....? i doubt it, just curious

[MazdaNoob]

it does, i'm using one right now (sohc intake) but you need the box as well . take your time on the clutch alignment as you sure as hell dont want to take it all back out again

You're like me Jason. Slow and steady

Well my friends.... the car has a new home.. So best begin a new chapter for this machine....


Oh.. my bad... did i forget to mention i moved... i have a house... WITH A 2 CAR GARAGE!!!!!!!! ok, technically not a house, i didn't buy it.. it's a duplex.. but it's a house to me

this is prolly the biggest thing to happen for me in a while. I can finally work on my cars. Not worry about getting yeld at for $H!T!!!!! have 2 room mates.. they both pretty much live on the 2nd story. It's 3 bdr, 2 full bath. My stipulation was since I get the garage, i'll take the smallest room. Although i really could use the master room as i have more furniture and my roomies have next to nothing (i have the entire place furnished with my own stuff) I felt this was more fair. So... after 5 hours of getting the car finally on a trailer which i rented for $50.. paid $31 in fuel for my friend bringing his truck down. Bought tie down ratchets and bungee coord to hold the driveline in place.. ($32) it's done. in my home, and dear god it's nice!!!

still dunno when the car will be finished, but now i can truly work on it. and at my own pace..

Great!!!! That's kickass, guy!

I've actually just found a place in town that I want to buy. Gotta actually check it out and stuff, but it's got a separate garage building that's high enough to put a lift in!!!
