Clutch rebuild kit

Upgraded clutch fork

New turbo (probably a BW billet 67mm s400sx)

Full blown dual pump hanger to get rid of the rusty modified stocker

Fix or replace my wideband

Fix my fuel pressure gauge inside the car

Put some carpet in it to clean up the interior a little

I'm sure there are other little odds and ends I'm forgetting right now too

I definitely did! I decided not to go with the upgraded clutch fork or the full blown dual pump hanger. I completely rewired my existing sending unit.

My engine and clutch disks are in.

A turbo will be ordered once I get my tax refumd

I have a lead on some carpet and headliner

Will be finishing it up and starting her up on Tuesday with the old turbo

So far, I have done more than what I originally thought haha and not done yet.

Got the trans sent out, waiting to hear from shep to see what all needs to be fixed on my stage 4 trans.

Bought a PTT twin disc so I don’t have to send my trans out every winter to get serviced due to my act dragging at high rpm's Also got the Isuzu slave and a coned TOB for good measure.

Got a larger ar housing for the 6262 to make a bit more power. Went from a .58 t4 to a .68 t4

Installed a full ss clutch line.

Shaved and Powder coated my transmission motor mount

Did some weight reduction. Removed rear seat belts/brackets and rear wiper and hatch sprayer.

Installed new oem heater core hoses and shifter linkage bushings.

I powder coated my brembos acandy red with and installed with new pads/rotors/ss lines/ate super blue. (evo)

Started to fab up a flaming river batter cut off through the key hatch hole.

Left to do.
Find some light wheels to use for slicks.
Order some fluids and put the car back together.
Re heat wrap my downpipe.
Install a new spindle with wheel bearing
