purty!
Couldn't be bothered to clean up the rims and rotors?
the rotors are clean. i scrubbed them before i put them on. what you see are fingerprints from handling.
no point in cleaning the wheels considering we get snow/ice/rain on a bi-daily basis. hours after i took that picture it started snowing/sleeting. we actually have 3 inches of shit out there right now.
i promise to clean the car next time we get a 24 hour break from nasty weather

big intake manifold is on.
phenolic spacer. custom. still in great shape. the gaskets were re-usable but i bought new ones.
half done. assembly is the reverse of removal.
new and old. the new one is ported 55mm, old one 52mm. OE is 48mm
yeah i do about 95% of the work to my car.
getting there.
and done! replaced the air filter too. sounds much healthier.
it was tough to get in and out of the garage. about a 1inch gap between the outer lip of the SS and the concrete.
thats all for today folks.

the scratches will buff out easy.
i'd LOOOOVE to if you bought me one that wasnt a foot wide and 7 inches tall. then it would fit under correctly.
the wing is on for another week, the it is getting painted.
badging!
the bumper. the c/f hood is flattening out finally. lots of time in the sun and weight on the hood to get it that far. another 1/8in to go.
as you can see the FB doesnt really stick out at all.

I want a close-up of where the hood pins were.
And you put that front bumper on every other day too. What the fuck man ?
Do you get up 2 hours early every day "Today I'll go to work with THIS bumper, THIS exhaust, and THIS wing... Tonight I'll switch wings and throw the side skirts on"

these pieces currently on the car are permanent, i sold all the OEM stuffs.
two more!

the manifold looked great for about 20 minutes after i put it on the car. its an australian header (perfectly flowed 4-1 piece, excellent tubular mandrel bent construction) from RPW. they specialize only in mitsubishi cars. they sell the best parts you can get for mitsu. they are also the only ones that make a header for the car.
4-1 flow into 2.25in collector that bolts to the OEM b-pipe, but obviously i have a civic catback on the car.
