Buttoned up front end suspension and supporting pieces. Almost ready for spring time.

Installed a clutch helper spring this past weekend. Nice difference in clutch feel. Only took me 52K miles to try it out.
Also put in an order for a new Motordyne mid-muffler (The Box) for my Shockwave. The shitty JB-weld job I did to fix a crack on my original has been kaput for weeks (as was I was told it would!) and it was time to order the replacement. That will give me another car thing to do while on lockdown. |

DO you know if they ever put that RFL pipe in production (the substitute for the muffler) |

I feel like the sound of the original Box is more my style after hearing several sound clips that were posted on the FB groups (which can be found on YouTube). |
oh man, this made my day. I've had clearance issues with my new garage (ever so slightly.)

Headlight restoration today. I actually thought I had moisture in my headlights as they looked patching/ frosting. I noticed during washing I could actually feel the different texture on the outside.
Anyway bought a kit, wasn’t working that well so just use my DA polisher and with quality car polish, much better results, very happy 😊 |
Self control broken. I ordered the Exhaust for the WRX, but I went with stainless as a compromise... it's a daily at the end of the day.
RFL pipe will have to wait for the Z. Im not convinced the clearance is worth changing the exhaust note. |
The new Box for my Motordyne Shockwave arrived today. Goal is to have the car up early tomorrow and switch out the old with the new.

New Box for the Shockwave was installed today. No issues and fit and finish of the piece was better than the one it replaced. I had picked up my exhaust used and it was my thought that it was one of the older builds. The welds on the new piece looked great, specifically the ones on the muffler itself, which were ground and polished smooth. Again, fit and finish were top notch. No complaints of the old piece, just happy to see that Motordyne has continued to improve on their products over the years.
Best part: exhaust is back to sounding like a true ART pipe + Shockwave monster and my power feels smoother and stronger throughout the power band. |
Yesterday I picked up some ARP wheel studs, Hotchkis billet sway bar bushings and MTec clutch springs from a local forum member :tup:

I think mine is still in storage somewhere?

Been making me a Covid-19 pure carbon fiber hood. I'm nearly done with the mold. I need to put a reinforcements on the mold, BUT i'm pretty damn excited how this is moving along now.
I ordered my beauty layer of carbon fiber today! "Silver Aluminized Carbon Fiber". The hood will be 4 layers in total, middle two layers will be heavy duty 12k CF. End goal is to have a Sunoco style hood to accomodate my engine (and possible other people's needs).Full information in my build thread (figured I'd pop up for some air in these parts). https://aykvjq.dm.files.1drv.com/y4m...&cropmode=none https://bskyjq.dm.files.1drv.com/y4m...&cropmode=none https://9wq7jw.dm.files.1drv.com/y4m...&cropmode=none |
