Here is the battery tray.
I will redo the cables once I put the interior back in.
I verified the rear spring part number. I have 7kg in the rear. I am going to get 8kg springs for the front and see how I like that setup.
Here is the tank. I only painted the parts rusted. I am glad I did, because I do not want to take it out again. The whole install was smooth except for getting the old hard line to thread into the new fuel hose. That was a pain and took most of my time today.
The fuel tank cover is black again. Looks much better. I did not spend to much time on it because I plan on taking it off and doing some modifications to it once I learn fiber glass. I hate how it slants and I want it to be even all the way across.
The car has sat for a while and I was amazed that it started on the first bump. I think the fuel leak caused a pressure drop and affected the car more than I imaged. My idle was better, and no dips at idle after running hard. The car pulls better and I may not need as low as a final drive as I thought. I think my old 4.2 FD will be enough.
I have been trying to sell my sti rotors on ebay and I keep getting a lot of people interested but no one buys. I may just keep them and get them milled down like others did with the st205 rotors.
So, I can send it off to paint, but I think I need to do one more thing first. I found what looks like rock chips in the wheel well and one of them has started to rust while the other is still silver. I think I need to kill that rust now and coat it rather than wait till after the paint.
So even though its been a lot of work the past few days it has paid off. I have a new cuss word. Every time I get pissed at my car I say evo. Cause sometimes the car makes me feel like I would be better off buying one, but I am glad I have stuck with it. Its only a matter of time now and the car will shortly be to a good stopping point.
Now, what should I coat the rusted spots with once I remove the rust in the wheel wells? [/img]
