I tinted a pair of 94-95 tails and it was a pain in the ass masking/sanding/etc.
Have an extra set of the 96-98 lenses?
With the 96-98, what works as the blinker? Is it the amber area that blinks? What always stopped me from buying the ambers was I wanted to keep my sequential tails.

Nope, I actually just picked up those lenses. Yep the amber part blinks if you wire them correctly but I just went the lazy route and still have the red blinking.

I added some new gauges. I got an Innovate DLG-1 to monitor AFR on both banks and an Innovate ECF-1 to monitor fuel pressure, ethanol content, and fuel temperature. I'm not sure if I like the white faces, it almost seems to be a bit much. I can change them to black, if I want them to blend in better and not be so obvious.

Decided to finally put in some different brake pads after sitting on them for a bit. I went with a different compound to hopefully get less brake dust. I also told myself I wouldn't order any more parts until I install stuff I already had so in they go so I can order some lca's.

I have a lot brake dust from my new setup also, looking into other options. Which compound are you trying now?

I tried a street pad that advertised low dust and noise that still had good bite. Although better they still have more dust than I'd like after a good drive. Here are the wheels after a little bit of cruising. Of course the rears aren't bad. Here is a link to the pads Brembo Calipers F40, F50, B, H, GT1 - Street Brake Pad Set - StopTech Street Performance

I saw it without the car cover on it for the first time in a while. Does that count? Ha ha... I've been ordering some parts for a winter build and been keeping an eye out for some good deals. I can't believe how much block work costs in New Jersey!

Decided to do upper and lower control arms yesterday. I couldn't break the bolts for the upper so I'll try again at a later date. I was successful on the lowers but what a pita to get to the body bolts. Went to put my rear sway back on but it had a stress crack so I left it off until I can find another. It could be in my head but just from a short drive down the street the car did seem to hook better. It still spun but it felt like more of a foward motion while spinning.
