thanks :) your black blob sti looks badass aswell

i regret the engine oil. its very light more like 0w30 which isnt good. so this time around i went with castrol edge 5w40 as reccomended for the ej207 motor by clark tuner.

but the trans did feel a little smoother and overall the car was happier with new fluids.

my car looks a bit different now. i guess i should update my journal.:cyberguy: i will most likely be changing my trans fluid with the redline fluid. What are your future plans for your car?

redline works good in my 5spd trans no complaints. i think im gonna try motul in my rebuilt lgt geared trans when i install.

my plans for now. then working on modding/driving the 97 cobra over the summer
1)get trans installed,need axles for an 02 wagon plus labor.
2) efi logics tune- current tune is weak for the stock trans

future?
1) nice summer wheels/tires
2)sti splitters
3)v limited lip
4)process west tmic
5)ewg

mrxr250rider 03-19-2012 10:15 PM

UPDATED: LGT geared trans is in and all my leaks are fixed, cars running better than ever! cant wait for retune

mrxr250rider 04-09-2012 07:12 PM

new wheels and pics!!!

BigWhiteTodd 04-09-2012 08:14 PM

I have always wanted a wagon looks great.

Shipman 04-10-2012 01:15 AM
