HKS filter was dirty, so ordered up a replacement on Ebay. Cool thing is they come in tons of different colors. I opted for a Red, 3-layer this time around.

I saw a killer how-to on YouTube about how to detail your engine bay, and I really need to get around to doing it.









While changing the filter, I noticed a vacuum line coming from the manifold was just hanging out, torn. I was wondering why the car was so sluggish lately. Time to go over all the vacuum lines! #Fun

Scheduled a tune for January. Since I have a gnarly manifold to turbo exhaust leak (gasket is donezo), I'll be pulling the factory turbo and installing the HKS 2530 Kai. Going to run GTR injectors (and the resistor pack) as well as a Walbro! This will all be tuned with Nistune. I'm shooting for 275-300whp, and a nice midrange. If I have time before hand, I'm going to try and do some drop in PonCams as well.

R32 headlights suck, and it turns out, I have an early model and late model R32 headlights. One of each...awesome. I used to do this with 3000GT VR4 headlights, and I figured I'd make mine look like GTR N1 headlights since they're way more badass. Pulled them off, and tossed them in the oven..

Crazy what a little soap and water will do..



Disassembled everything and gave it a few coats of Hi-Temp BBQ Paint in Satin Black.







Buffed, polished and protected the glass. I really want the clear lenses, so I may go with those soon. But, of course my dumbass breaks one of the inner headlight housings, so I am doing something unique with the broken side (pics soon).











And how they look mocked up..
