Back On The Road Again... *56k*

so, after the brand new clutch was installed, i snapped a shifter cable a few weeks afterwards. unknowingly, at first, the parts i needed were discontinued, and came at a premium price, ie. $280 & $310+tx respectively. i would have prefered new parts, but i was able to source out a parts car for a fraction of the cost, and Oliver & i went to work :cool: took us a couple of hours to remove, but it was really fun :) Big-Ups to Oliver (Oreo) for all his work, and LJ Auto Performance, again for guiding me along the way :cool:

the engine smoked up white at first, and smelled like it was mixing coolant, but after clearing it out a bit and adjusting some sensors, loose ends and a few other things, she is breathing healthy once again :cool: feels good to be back in the driver's seat, i didn't enjoy being without my car very much, but i didn't mind seeing all the hot lil chickies on the bus :p:

glad to see she's running again hun :)
