So I started to work on my OBD-II swap tonight got alot acomplished

wanted a "plug and play" VAF to MAF harness so I cut the plug out of my VAF and sodered on the MAF, IAT, and 12v Source wires.



Still need to wrap with electrical tape then loom and more tape.

Also my OBD-I - OBD-II Harness came in the mail.



Im gunna plug everything up and see if everything works on friday or saturday after work!, It gunna be nice with a MAF and OBD-II port to work with to see thats going on easyer.

Well besides all the cool "go fast" parts over the summer I started painting the car... but between work and my other project(1966 Mustang) I didn't exectly get very far I got my hood and front and rear bumper done and thats about it until spring rolls around ill complete the car with the doors, mirrors, fenders, and the rest of the car.. so hopfuly she'll be lookin "fresh" when spring rolls around.

I also awhile purchased a new set of coilovers and have installed them since when my Cuzco Camber plates. They are the TA's I had posted about awhile ago. over all the quailty was surpurb the ride quality is amazing compared to the GC's i was running.

Ill have some pics up for you guys in the next few days!:)
