[QUOTE="josephcostello, post: 16732407, member: 165586"] So today was a huge day for me. Long story short, I put 50 miles on the car today. First I soon realized the noise I thought was an idler was my power steering pump :sneaky:, thankfully the pump seems to be fine i just ran it low. Only thing I needed to button up after going around the block a few times was a loose power steering line and an end link in the IRS. [MEDIA=youtube]stG7yqsEiJo[/MEDIA] [ATTACH type="full"]1738345[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]1738346[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]1738347[/ATTACH] I went ahead and put the tail lights, head lights, and mirrors on the car to make it street legal. I put it back on jacks and checked all mechanics from front to back. Everything seems be in good order. [ATTACH type="full"]1738348[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]1738349[/ATTACH] On my hour long drive it was very weird getting use to the new car. Alignment is so bad it is beyond unsafe and i'm driving on 8 year old tires that are cracked. Clutch and the T56 are awesome.
