New hood emblem. Scored a new oem
On eBay for 26$ couldn't go wrong. Of course I like to add a little strip of 3m double sided tape for extra security. The old Chinese one started fading. Here's a comparison side by side. What a difference. |

I hear you! How much coolant did you bleed out? Was it 1 gallon or more than that? I have to do this job and I am wondering.

I was going to drain the coolant too, but after searching I realized it probably wasn't necessary.

Went for a nice mountain drive with a mix of going slow and enjoying the scenery and getting a little antsy in the twisties. Got a little too carried away going down the mountain, though. Built up some speed pretty quickly just coasting which resulted in a speeding ticket. Live and learn.

Getting my new firehawk indy 500s put on the rear today. Cant wait to finally have more confidence with how the car handles.
Currently have cheap federal tires that have no sidewall reinforcement at all and are super flimsy. On the highway or any speed above 60mph the car feels like it doesnt have a sway bar in the rear and reacts super sluggish

I switched to a silicone elbow. I'm impressed with the mod, during normal driving you don't notice a difference the car is still nice and silent.
When you drive spirited the throttle response is improved and it sounds slightly better on the top end but never loud or annoying the change is slight |

Sure thing. And you'll need an LCI head unit to do this. It'll just disable gongs entirely if you try to code it on a Pre LCI.

Finally got around to installing my waterpump and thermostat. Wasn't as bad as I anticipated. Definitely a few tight spots though.

Bought a plug n play coded one from a guy who custom make them on IG. He had different gauge faces in stock at the time ready to ship so i chose that one. M3 needles, led lights and f80 style font. I'm not on IG anymore so i forgot his IG. He's out of Florida.

Valve cover and gasket done today. Definitely easier 2nd time around. Took me 2.5-3 hours taking my time and running to a friends house to get some tools I didn't own. Now no vacuum leaks!
