So the rude SOB of a postman came and dropped off a piece of paper telling me to come get a box today.

Image
Inside were some mummified bars.

I pretty much have no time to install these with my BP coming now but I can hopefully enlarge the necessary holes for it at the least.

BP is needing a couple of vacuum hoses and a coolant hose that I misplaced, plus I'm having some issues figuring out what to do about one inlet but otherwise I'm basically an injector harness away from being ready to go in.

Might be able to polish it off and get the b6 out on sunday, depends if I can get an injector harness by then.

i just realized that with those traction bars installed you're going to have to have a little more trouble routing your intercooler piping

*edit* nevermind, i went through mi|<e's log again to realize that you just need to grind them down a little

I will actually probably need to adjust my piping a little bit but not much.

So I went to the junkyard today and got this sick score here for 15 bucks.

Image

Authentic Greddy BOV that I pulled from a trashed Supra. It's even 2.5" which is exactly what I needed.

I forgot my tools at home :oops: so I couldn't get anything else I needed so I'll have to go back down.

So I decided to finally go to the doctor and found out I have mono, at least now I've got some meds so I should hopefuly be feeling better in a few days and I can finally finish my car off.

I also sourced and evo equal length manifold with a big 16G and aftermarket down pipe for $300 online so I've decided to sell my CS downpipe and GT28/vj11 hybrid once it comes in.

So my 16G came in the mail last week, complete bust though, maad shaft play so it looks like I'm going with the gt28.

Also finally got around to pulling the B6 out, unfortunately broke a front crossmember bolt and already had a rear one broken so I need to sort thought(by drilling them out or just welding it on there) before teh BP can go in. Mad thanks to Tavman_1213, Calg_93GS and Mi|<e for helping me out, probably would've been disastrous without them.

Also got the exact BOV I needed too thanks to Mi|<e.

Drilled out the broken bolt from my crossmember today, bit of a pain but I'm happy I did it instead of welding it up.

Also pulled the AC stuff today.

Image

Didn't even break anything!!

Gonna have to get in there and pull this stuff too, I think I might leave it unless I find a buyer for my AC stuff.

Image

Also pulled the VC off of my B6 too, looks pretty good(I think). I need to find something for this engine, I don't want to toss it especially since the trans and clutch are good too.
