Engine bay looks a lot better. Seems like a good project. All I can think of is to slam it and maybe put 50/50 tails on it.
Thank you I'm still working on it though (If you know of anyone with a valve cover that is a black version for the D16Z6 please let me know). yeah I saw what 50/50 tails are, they're stock (-ish?) ones... I'm not someone who likes stock tail lights.
By slam it, you mean drop it? lmao... I went to burger king today (yea yea yea, I won't be gaining weight anytime...) and I bottomed out going up into their parking lot... all I can think of is that if I drop it, no more going there ever! lol...

if you properly lower your car along with some angled driving you wont have to worry about scraping

Looks good man, find some center caps for the rims, and like everyone else says DROP IT! lol you just have to go into places at a bit of an angle, but totally worth it. Personally i like the 50/50 tails, or smoke yours darker. save up for paint and set it off a bit, maybe like a jet black? something nice, never cheap out on paint.

the motor looks a billion times better.
but it still looks like a monster truck.
haha
LOL... yeah I'll look into it. I have other bills I have to pay before I can really do anything to my car.

I don't know where I can find some center caps to fit, apparently on these Konig Rims it had a cover that went over even the lugs. I like being able to see the lugs, it gives it more depth and detail I think. Would be nice to get rid of the rust under the rims though, that would make it look a lot less tacky.

I have a few things I need to do before I can even think about dumping money into my car.
Bills Bills Bills! and I need to get the car to drive smooth, I need to get new tires and an alignment, although I'm still worried about dropping the car, I need to be able to go over snow in the winter... and if I lower the car I'm not sure if I will be able to get out of situations. It snows a crap load up here, especially in February. Trust me... I would totally do that, and it would be sick. I'm just trying to think ahead, because this is my daily car. If only I could sell my other car to pay off most of my bills so that I could have more money every month to do more.

Okay, I'm totally sick of that red wire, so I decided to see where it goes, and come to find out it is actually for the piece of crap tach on my dash that I hate ever so much.

Look how the kid hot wired it.... so sad. honestly... I know that has to be the wire that taps into the actual tachometer... why is it spliced? and where does that blue wire go? Stupid kids these days....

There, took the damn thing out, lol... there was so much extra slack it was sad.

I just need to know why that blue wire is not hooked up to the other end of it...

that wiring looks wayyyyyyyyyyyyy unsafe
I know right! Glad I looked at that, I still need to look at where that blue wire goes, do you have any clues? It definitely goes to the tachometer, but if that's the original wire that he spliced into, then where's the other end? Going to the motor and all?.... unless he spliced into it from the dash... I found another wire that he tried to splice into because he was too stupid and thought that the instruction for it meant ANY blue wire in the engine bay.... lmao.

But yeah, I folded the blue wire up (not touching itself to back feed of course) and put electric tape on the end, and it's not touching anything that could cause a short out, or arc.

I added another ground wire to my car as well, I hope to get a different Valve Cover, I was looking at someone's on here that he put a wrinkle coating on his D16Y8 valve cover, does that fit fine with a D16Z6? It looks like it should. Just has more ground wire spots?

Well, I just bought a D16Y8 Valve Cover for my motor off of enycesam.

Here's the picture of it... this person did an amazing job and this is exactly the cover I wanted.

I'll get the interior pics once I get a day to vacuum it out... there's been a crap load of rain lately and too many dirty drive-ways. It's bugging the hell out of me to have dirt in it.

As for that list, I will never be able to do all that, lol
Rice? You mean... not "in" these days. I don't like fads. haha

So I got the valve cover the other day, got some new gaskets and put it on. I think I should change out the CAI.
