#13832 Picked up another O2 sensor today, a second hand Denso.
Had to do some minor modifications, but it's in, and working fine :)

Also got my D16z2 camshaft in today, I'll be ordering an AEM Trutime pully in one or two weeks, and hoopefully, the guy who is going to do my ECU reprogramming will be available next month or so.

Oh, my birthday was yesterday (turned 24), got this;

Forgot the English name for it, sorry :D
Something with torque and the rest... I don't know
It goes from 10 to 150 pound per foot.
It's pretty good to have one, especially with the new camshaft that came in, and I can now install it at home, and tighten it properly.

#13886 Did some work on the O2 sensor wiring today.
Yesterday was just some testfitting, the plug had to be changed, and I did it with connectorblocks.

Toke some crimps, and wrapped some 'self emulguating' tape (I don't have a CLUE how to spell th?t, can't even remember it's proper name haha) and now its properly done :)

#16099 Finally got some of the work done on my car.
The front swaybar was replaced, including poly urethane endlinks.
I also placed the rear swaybar, installed the new decat, the 'new' midpipe and I tried it on my way back...
Unbelievable!
Such an improvement in handling...

Things to do;
replace front and rear brakes with OEM EG6 ones,
replace the OEM brake lines with ss braided ones,
place the OEM EG6 strutbar (front, lower),

:woot:

#17458 After waiting a long time, I finally installed my brake upgrades, and some more :)

So this is 'new' under the car now;
- EG6 front brakes including everything needed to make it fit,
- EE9 rear discbrakes,
- EG6 master brakecilinder ,
- EG6 'brakeforce distributor',
- EG9 Goodridge steelbraided brakelines,
- EG6 OEM strutbar lower/front.

Front;

Rear;

Master brakecilinder and stuff;

Furthermore, I installed a new Mishimoto half-size alu radiator (EG6) and 16lb/ft (1.1 bar) cap, it was one hell of a job getting my D15 coolanthoses on the bigger VTI connections on the radiator, but they are on!.

Normally, driving a short distance like 40-50km at 150km p/h would cause major cooling problems.
With the Mishimoto in, I flied back home (80 or even 90km), speeds varying between 150 and 200 km p/u, without any coolingproblems!!!

I also got a set of 'JDM' taillights in from Bouli.
They don't fit 100%, but it'll do, not that bad :)

Later!
