A busy mind doesn't wander, or something like that. I've always been content with foaming carpet cleaner followed by steam cleaning. Then again if it was a car I was truly passionate about I could see myself taking this level of detail as well. You'll definitely have a nice car once it's all said and done.

when i do electrical stuff, it takes forever. lol...

so im using a lot of stuff that i had in storage... i went ahead and fixed the radio wiring, so i can run an amp..



after that i decided the best spot to run the amp wire was here..



and it went very well



always thing a spot for the fuse, and a quick disconnect.




cleaned up the interior floor boards, and re did the amp wiring, but i am very pleased with the carpet, it looks like new...



then i plugged the amplifier....



and finished buttoning things up..



and installed my memo pad, and homelink here...



unfortunately cant fire the car until i get that damn fuel fitting... then is to finish the exhaust, and get it aligned....

Hmm, a chambered muffler would help remove a lot of the Honda-ness.

The speed at which you work boggles my mind. Good stuff
haha, ive been very slow at this lol.... work interferes.


i just hate to take those arms off, again!!!!. then trying to find bolts, as there is no parts number for the nuts, as they are sold as whole...

so my luck, continues.


For all of you interested. the nuts on the rear control arms, are m16x1.5. you need two RH and two LH..

haha, left handed nuts. Yes they are rare, and only a few places sell them. on top of that, i need a left handed, m16x1.5 die or thread restorer, thats even more rare...

i had to order online. the threads on the arms are messed up. lol..

car is down for another week maybe on account of this...

with no yards with celicas around, and all the ghost part outs in the fs section, im stuck.

That's a shame, maybe there are other areas to touch up while you wait for the parts to arrive?

Hmm, maybe refurbish the wheels if you haven't already? That'd take up the week you have to wait. Perfect time to do such since it's already up in the air.
