Previous owner snapped a part of the seat mount. It was being held down by two bolts. I figured I’d just take it out, now it’s a one-seater.

Past couple weeks on the rally car I managed to paint the doors and fender, skidplate dimensions taken, rebuild the '06 gearbox, buy more shit I don’t need for it, and design the hydro handbrake with DCCD cutout built in. Still got an assload of stuff to complete before it even sees the road let alone dirt.

Pulled the tank and valve cover to check valve clearance. One of my exhaust valves is pretty loose. My intake is on the loose side but not as bad as the exhaust.

Time to order my shim kit!

Meh,  
I get a Cobb map and a free Perrin map, plus I dont have enough mods to warrant a custom dyno tune. This will keep me happy for now.
