My Project.....

[LN323]

Hey Adam!
Yeah, I would love to come up for a visit sometime. I'm gonna wait for warmer weather! LOL. If I go ahead and get some, I may try to install them myself if I can get a break in the weather. However, I'm assuming you have access to a lift. That would be so much more fun (easy on my old body)!

I also got my new (new to me) rims and new tires on! I like them. Went back down to 14" with 195/60-14s. Much nicer ride. Better gas mileage. Quieter. Cheaper! LOL. I should take some pics when I get back into town. I'm in Boston celebrating Christmas this year! BTW, Merry Christmas everyone (who visits my thread)!

Okay.... so I was reviewing the info about the master cylinder brake upgrade....

http://www.dustdevilsracing.com/how_...o929mc_001.htm

And, I couldn't find any info telling me what car the longer connector is from (3rd picture of parts in the write-up).

I found a 929 and '95 Protege as donors but not sure what year the 929 must be for the right part. I know that the write-up says a 1991 929, but the donor I found is a 1993. Is it still the same part?

[LN323]

Aha.... Found the answer to one of my questions..... the master cylinder is the right one....

Anybody help me find out what car the connector comes from? The Protege? The 929?

Bump......

Anybody? Anybody got info on the connector piece? I plan on going to the junkyard sometime this weekend to start gathering more parts. I imagine that I may luck out and notice this piece, but I'd feel better knowing what car to search and where to look before going rather than the journey being "hit and miss" so if you know anything about that piece I would love to have some of your knowledge! :D

Thanks for your help!

Sorry Larry, no help.. I haven't paid attention to BF stuff in a long time now..

Iirc that one is on the 626 booster.

Woot! Here I sit.... my official last day of work for this school year! Yesterday was the last day of school for the kids, but today is our last day to get grades finalized, clear out our rooms and stuff. It's soooo quiet here right now! LOL....

Now, I can get back to working on my car! Finally!!!!! I can't wait. Um, oh, I have to wait a little bit because my wife's rellies from Minnesota are coming into town and we they will be staying with us..... for the next THREE WEEKS!!!! AAAAARRGH! LOL. Kidding. I'll find some time to start tearing a few things down and doing some of the long-awaited mods that I've been dreaming about.

glad to see your anxious to get back into things!!! im excited to see what happens in the next few weeks! keep us updated

[yarnkaps]

Excited to see the brake upgrade for sure

Nice Larry! Get back at it! Im in the same boat but with a crankshaft failure. But, only leaves room for improvement. Lots of new stuff to come on mine as well. Take pics too!

Finally got my car running very well again! Woot!!!!

And the magic solution was...... I changed my spark plugs! Holy crap. I must have forgotten how long ago I had put those NGKs in. When I pulled them, because of wear, the gap was about .057 instead of the stock .044 that it should be. No wonder my car was acting weird when I tried to drive it a little more "spirited". I guess I was asking too much of it electronically to make up for that big of a gap.

I went with the NGK Platinum's and while I know that some forum members don't recommend platinum plugs, my car is running really well right now.

I also found a spoiler that I'm finally happy with and looking forward to modding and installing. I want you guys to try to guess what car it came off of when I'm done and I'll post pics. I'll take pictures from the start so that you can eventually see what I did to morph it to look like it came from the dealer (at least, that's what I hope happens).

Hope all of you are well.

Oh yeah..... one more thing. I found this pretty cool website. I'm sure some of you might already be aware of it. In fact, somebody might have already posted it on the forum for others to look at and use, but I'm not taking the time to search for it. I'm just posting it.

Enjoy.
