HI!!! Excited new owner! Pics included
- Thread starter JMofIRW
- Start date
Haven't checked the codes since it stopped starting, it's been raining hard here.
I am pretty sure it's my CPS wiring harness, I just gotta get the proper weather so i can mess with it while having someone try to start it.
As usual I'll post updates as they come.

Updates...
Boost leak is not fixed, at about 4 psi it doesnt hit fc anymore, but upwards it does.
Working with a welder on aluminum 2.5 hardpipes.
Installation of struts, strut mounts, control arm bushings (front and rear), and more to come this week.

update. rear shock absorber assembly is almost complete. left on jack stands over night so i can do the control arm bushings tomorrow, that way i kill 2 birds with 1 stone.
front suspension should be done tomorrow.

I like the blue interior, but I'd love some leather, the dash is actually in really good shape, so I will just do a blue cluster and a blue 89+ to go along.
as for paint.
You have to see the tires! The edges are metallic blue. It's such a bad paint job, I have found bolts, after removing nuts with blue paint. Random areas, but it looks pretty good, I must clay it and wax it soon though.
I have been replacing my control arm bushings, it's just tough with the cold and darkness.

LOL They usually use a fairly decent paint, they just don't do any prep at all. I had my 4 runner done at Earl Scheib. It actually looked great, but just like yours they painted the tires and exhaust and stuff.
LOL I guess anyone can be pro wrestler with him on the team!
Nice ride though and welcome to SM!!

Pro wrestler? Does that mean you actually get paid to do it?
Back in high school It would have been awesome to receive money for winning.

I always wanted to ask a pro wrestler this. When you're in bed with a chick do you ever use some of your wrestling moves on her?

Dont mean to be an ass or anything but at our high school most of our wrestlers are GAY. Its kinda disturbing. Dont have a problem with them just dont like seeing them do stuff in public!
The paint job wasn't maaco. Well maybe it was, the guy just said it was 1500 bux and was done at a shop. I didn't ask more, cuz my concern was the engine, turbo, and tranny.
That's my nephew! and thats me in the back lol.

I kinda liked wrestling in highschool. It was you against someone else strength vs strength speed vs speed and the person with the most talent to bring it together won.
Updates as follows.
My MK3 is at my house (60 miles away from me) on jack stands, with the passenger hub off.
Still trying to press in the Control Arm Bushings. I am going to call energy suspension tomorrow to clear up some of the terms they use (trailing arm, toe link, and lateral link). As it seems none of the bushings actually fit.
I torched out the old bushings which worked fairly well. About 15 minutes each bushing with 1 torch, 2 torches was about 5 minutes.
