THE EGR PIPE IS NOT EVEN CLOSE. It took a lot of bending and massaging to make it fit. And the downpipe, where there is a flex section, touches the stabilizer/stationary rod for the shifter.

After 4 days of.....spirited driving :lol:

Then I put on the new front valve cover and cleaned up the bay a little.

Big thanks to WhiteFinish for making my Friday. Straight from the Netherlands....

So subtle...My kind of style. Now I just need a GS lip to finish off the outside.
In the future, CF hood, window visors and hopefully a rear window garnish.

And it still rides good. Aggressive in the turns, not bouncy on the highway and I only rub a little in hard turns at...speeds :P

And the winner is..?!? Evo_Spec for reading my worklog :love2: :love2:
my measurements are all wack, I measured the first time, fender to ground, but with 16" wheels. Then again with the spring/shock combo and 17" wheels...It was like 1.75 inches or so.

I couldn't take it anymore. Went to a local parts store and got these:

They are universal, but NOT hard to wire if you pay attention. $56 a piece.

NO MORE CELS! WooWooo!

Then the axle started making some noise. Remedy? New axles!

And then another shot of the motor.

I need a real camera....I know.

Taking the 3 to the track on Friday. Got some slicks and a trailer in case I grenade the trans....Cross my fingers....
