Looks like September is pretty open if you all wanna stop by? I'm up for it. I could grill up some butt and cook some egg rolls.

I need a lift so bad. They make working on cars about 10000% easier. One day... One day...

I always remember how amazing it was to have my 7th gen. When the seats are folded, it's like the Batcave in there.

Lol I promise one day, but not this month... unless it's like after September.
I'm always booked July-Sept, haven't had a weekend to relax by myself in like 2 months.

UPDATE

We've got motion!! Spent the last two days putting everything together.
Flywheel, clutch, and pressure plate went on without a stumble. Lining up the trans proved difficult as always but I eventually got it on and bolted everything back up. Decided to do some upgrading from all my spare parts while I was putting it back together. With semi-new clutch and trans, I also grabbed my K&N intake from my old 7afe as well as the ebay header. Reused the axle from Jake's car or was it mine? I don't remember. I got axles sitting everywhere now. laugh.gif Also installed TRD springs & KYB struts to the front since it was apart. Will get to the back later as it wasn't being worked on and I ran out of time today. Since the brakes were rusted to ****, I decided to grab the brakes from my green car and put them on Freelica since it will be upgrading to GT brakes when the BEAMS is finished.

Clutch - check
Trans - check
Intake - check
Header - check
Springs/struts- check
Brakes - check

put the axle nuts and wheels back on. tighten everything and dropped her back on all fours. Tossed in the battery and DONE! Freelica runs, drives, and goes bwwaaahhhhhhhhhh all over. lol sounds so funny with it being cut right after the downpipe. laugh.gif laugh.gif Then I gave her a nice long bath because she deserved one. Parked her with gramps and took some pics.

Yea, it was the easier of the two and the wife wants the blue car out of the yard soon so I had to get it done. Now I can strip the rest of the blue car for parts and junk it.
