The conncetors came in the other day, so yesterday, after I fought with the difference in wire gauges for 10 minutes, I called Stacy in to take care of the wiring. Everything is all soldered up and now I have weather-proof connectors for the next time i need to do a big job.

.....And I need a new oil pressure sender.... At least the car is running good.

Still need an alignment though.

Why did she do the wiring?


For an alignment that car seems like a chaotic neutral.

That's what she does Jordan.

I do the mechanical work, and she handles all the electrical.

The last couple of times driving the car, I was noticing a lot more clunking going on in the front end, so I've been hesitant to drive it....

Turns out the banana arm bolt needs something like 127lbft of torque... I put the torque wrench them and got two full turns before they locked down. cwm13.gif

While I was down there, I double checked the torque on all the SS stuff, and that all checked out.

I also noticed when putting the car back together, that the intake tube just at the turbo had given up the ghost. While it does make those cool turbo sounds that we all love, it really lowers the amount of filtered air that it going to the compressor.



Side by side with the new Stoney Racing hose...



Drove it to work today, and it's so much quieter now.... I'm kinda sad about that.

The good side is, no more clunking! Now I just need to figure out why my steering clunks when I turn the wheel.....

Very cool car man, if the clunking isn't a product of the inner or outer tie rods being no bueno... then it's almost got to be the rack and pinion I guess. I just rebuilt my rack and pinion which wasn't a bad job really. hardest part is getting it out of the car. This is all assuming it's the same system as a FWD GT...

Is it a big boy clunk or is it a little Honda clink? Used to see work steering racks and steering ujoints on Camries (Camrys?) that made some god awful clunking when turning.
