Dude. We're TOTALLY doing Karate in the garage. We just need to move a car out first. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
I'll buy a watermelon and bring my samurai sword home for the office. It's no signed by Randy Jackson or anything though. |

It'd be great if you could come up tomorrow OR Thursday Todd. Seriously, it'd be a big help.
Here's the list of things I need to do on the car. Lots-O-Wiring (DrEvil actually WANTS to do this one.) ECU Mounting after I finish the pre-wiring. (I'll have that done tonight though.) Headlight buckets. (I need the plastic grommets to finish this, I can't find them anywhere.) Intercooler air tubing installation. Intercooler radiator and canister installation. Brake and clutch re-bleeding. Throttle cable installation. (This is a bitch to try to get through that tube, I'm just going to re-drill a hole for it.) Radiator fill-valve installation. Window and windshield installation. There's an oil line for the turbo that I need to install and route. I think it connects to the AOS that I have. Need to double-check that part. The seats and carpet can wait until I have something wired up properly TO install them in. I'm going to work on making the center console tonight. I also need to cover the dash in the vinyl I have so that can be ready for DrEvil to wire things into. |

I actually need the drop-link arm, bushings, and rotator thingy for both. I have 1 sides arm, but am missing the other bushing. I need the part that attaches to the motor, another drop-link like this, and all the bushings. If you have the stuff, can I buy them and pay for you to overnight them? I need to get this stuff tightened up on Thurs when Mike is still here. (He's doing the wiring with me.)
If not, that's fine too. I just need the parts. Attached thumbnail(s) |

Got the HID headlights installed. They don't work yet, and I'm still missing the link, but it's one less part on the shelf.

Yes, I have all the stuff, don't worry about it, you can cover shipping, I'm not worried about making money, I was going to scrap them anyway.
PM me if you still need them. |

DrEvil arrived and got right to work after lunch. We're still in the garage wresteling wiring. Be careful what you feed him. You might not be garage buddies for long, depending on the size and ventilation qualities of your garage. However, he is a great guy and funny as hell, so you might just have to breath out of your mouth for most of his stay. Hope you guys knock it out! |

what is the brand of the headlights? I forget. Got them off eBay. The trick for me was re-figuring out the way to wire them up. (Well, Mike did anyway.) They have a different relay setup, and you need to run constant power to them. There is constant power up there anyway for the headlight motors normally, but my wiring harness is completely custom, so that went out the door. They LOOK cool. Don't work yet, but still look cool. Cant wait to fire them up. |

You still have my address, right? Just let me know what the $ is. Yes I do, I'll get them boxed and out. I have a few other items to ship out for a secret project someone on the East Coast is working on for me. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/devil.gif) So I'll just add it to the box stack and get it up to yah. |
