Smoooooooogggggggggg!!! yeah, that right, just passed
just passed smog, not quite sure how. i had no idea where i was running at (rich or lean), and the guy was a boss, let me adjust it while it was running on the dyno to get it where it needed to be. anyways, im super legal now. ill be getting the real registration in the mail now all of that junk, and a cool little sticker that says "2012" to cover the one on my plate that says "2010".

bushings
shift bushings. bought a stock set of replacement shift bushings. one goes on the bottom of the shift knob shaft? if thats the right name for it. another goes in around the rod that comes out of the tranny (dont know the name for this either) and the last two go on the shift coupler. aftermarket bushings are made for one of there 3 types of bushing, the coupler, so i bought those too. they are the red ones made by prothane. i bough them cause theyre stiffer material= more precise bushings= better shifting. only problem was that these have elongated holes, and the OEM ones have normal holes. elongated/oval holes will make for sloppier shifting, i think, so im probably going to fill them in with polyurethane and then drill out a normal hole for optimal performance on those bushings.
im a little confused at the steering rack spacers (cheap ones that prop the steering rack up a little) versus the expensive knuckle mods that allow the tie rod to be kept at stock heigh (I think). ive read that the cheap spacers that prop the rack up can actually make bump steer worse, so im hesitant on putting them in. i have more research to do.
other than that, im working on the exhaust and getting it to pass smog (should happen this week). welded in the cat, sealed exhaust leaks, and im going to go everything else i can to prep it to ensure a pass.

cone filter: $5
sheet of plastic: already had
vs.
new oem replacement filter that fits the porsche air box:
$60-70
