Fuel pump went out on me, or so I think, so I ordered a fuel pump and some sensors, going to do a full tune up on New Years!

ordered a set of lmc lights to replace the bls v2 kit (complete low beam and high beam) I will be putting up for sale when I get the lmc lights in. just one more part on the list of things I'm selling off the car before I sell the car itself.

This is something I really want to do to see if it would knock out some of the underside sound, along with maybe the heat when driving long trips on my gas pedal foot.

I'll send you some feedback when I get the car out and drive it as i still havnt since i did the work. fouled out the plugs when i first tried to start her and i got some new ones but havnt quite found the motivation to do the work just yet since she isnt my daily driver.....

I expect a bit of a difference since i have longtubes ORY, and B&B exhaust under the car and no back seat. I put down 3 layers of 50 MIL in the back seat and truck deck area so it should affect the exhaust note and road noise some

On a side note i did manage to finish wiring up my ws6 seats

Changed the oil. Wasnt sure what was in there, it was new but had no idea what it was, so went with the Castrol Edge with TI 5w30 and a Mobil 1 filter.

bought the car that will be replacing the bird yesterday. Needs a few thing before it takes daily driver status from the bird and frees up the bird to be for sale.
