Buy direct from them, they send via fedex with trackin
On a side note, my mechanic had to go to the hospital. We removed one bushin and it caught us off guard when it popped out. 1/4 to the left and he would have lost his eye...it hit the bridge of his nose...

All done, but we didnt have to use the hydraulic jack. The bushin came out easily.
So the diff is all bolted back in the trans mount swapped out. I wrapped the exhaust. Just need to make a small heat shield and i am done. We can drive and tune.
My fuel pressure is 67psi at idle. A bit high but i can scale the tune for it.
Alignment tomorro and drivin again!!!

Slight delay, had to fix a couple crossed wires and put everything back on again.
Will go in for a quick wash and durin my long weekend a couple more with some sensual waxin.
God works in mysterious ways, i was in mad max territory here and a puppy tried to cross the road in front of me. I doubled back and befriended her and while i drove for another hr we found a couple guys stuck good in the desert. Mind you no one uses this road. Helped them out and drove the rest of the way to my other satellite. Spent the rest of my day workin and when i got home gave the new pup a good wash and am keepin her separate from my german shepherd till we have her checked out.
My third female dog in less than a yr...Havent found any males to rescue...

First drive was interestin.
I tried to relearn my crank sensor, and i got DVT fault.
Moving on i drove off to work, and at 50km, and 80-90km i had a driveshaft vibration. I then noticed smoke pouring out of my louver on the passenger side. I rev up, smoke follows, i pulled over and could not find the source of the issue. I then limped home, and found it was my oil fill to my drysump tank, it was loose.
I cleaned my car the best i could, but my windscreen still had a haze on it from the oil, so i drove slowly 70-75 in sixth gear.
I finally made it to my office, with a few close calls from the cops.
I have a burnt wb02 sensor, an eye burning smell that i cannot find, and this DS vibration.
I will try and see if my trans mount melted again or what else melted and see what i can do to save them next time.
1200rpm in 6th 75kph ect was 80-87c, egt 550-750f, and afr was acceptable.

Found the problems
I melted the ground wire on the fuel pump plug.
We are looking to modify the current one to a larger size
I will drill a 16mm hole on the top of the pump, route two wires in through a hollowed bolt just for the fuel pump in a larger AWG, and fill the cavity with fuel resistant epoxy and be done with it. This makes it a serviceable part in the future if needed
That took care of the smell
The vibrations was my DS carrier, it finally died. Gonna send out an email to Voodoo, lets see what he has that will hold up to my abuse...

Fuel pump wiring is sorted
My methanol controller now works
My rpm switch finally works
Have to rethink how to muffle the noise, open or closed it should the same. Loud...
Lower dash all assembled
Delayed off for gauge pod installed and delayed 15s
Tomorrow will start it up and get it waxed and polished.
My cluster has a ghost in it where the display will just shut off, no fuel level, and water temp just drop to the left.

Naf, how many welded bungs do you have on your headers? I was considering welding up to two extra bungs on each side before I send my headers off to Swain Tech to get coated.

Took my ride for a quick test run my new clamp on driveshaft carrier bearing
seems be working fine I took it up to about 80 miles an hour in a quick burst no problems
now I just need to sort out my tune to get a better idea Quality and low rpm. control
