Well let's see.....
It has been a very long time of nothing going on. Some shipping issues kinda killed my vibe and I haven't been motivated to do much to the car.
I scored one of those rare navi systems from a friend of mine. I've always wanted one just for the sake of owning it. I don't care to make it fully functional. It's just one of those, "for me" parts I just felt like having.
Also snagged one of spherical shifter cable ends and threw that on. Such a simple change made the shifting feel better. I heard the race spec cables with now come with these already.
Picked up the new designed upper coolant housing for K20's. I like this design much better. It's far more sturdy and o-ringed. Although I didn't have a problem with the old design, I didn't like that it could be wiggled around.
I tried sharing these pics on the facebook k20a.org page and I think more people were concerned with telling me how my can't "will not" run without a coolant overflow lol...even though I haven't ran one in the last 3 years.
So.....I planned to turbocharge this setup, and I still do. I've literally been waiting for months for my turbo manifold and up pipes. I ordered and waited 4 weeks before contacting sheepey about progress on the hot parts kit. When I got in touch with him, I was told it had shipped 2 weeks prior but I didn't get any shipping confirmation or anything. Also, there was a typo in my house number of my address.....but the carrier delivered my package with no signature required to a completely different address than mine!
Long story short, sheepey worked with me to get me another kit made at no charge and I just recently got shipping info for it. Since that mishap happened, I stopped doing anything further until I got that all sorted out. It was a big expense that killed my vibe to work on the car. So now i'm a little excited again. In the meantime, I decided to make the car drive-able since I miss it and grabbed another Ktuned big tube header. When funds pop up, i'll put the rest of the car back together from the things I sold off.
