I've been driving it everyday.
Update it's back on the ground. Sensors are in gauge is in place, and wires are ran, just gotta wire for power, tomorrow morning.
Nice! Keep us posted on the CABS as well brotha. i'm going to contact a few shops and hopefully get mine put in if not I might have to buy that big press machine and hope I can do them myself. Pain in the ass these shops cant do this its just control arm bushings for pete sakes.
Photo Dump took a trip to PA to hang with some Ecotec friends. Ecotec Baton had a meet at the SteelStacks in Bethlehem PA. Pretty decent turn out for a Sunday afternoon. This is why I've like the East Coast. Random pop up Ecotec meet brought out almost 30 Ecotecs.
Dropped off my Velocity Aeroworks headlight covers, and the random valve cover/coil cover plate at the powder coaters. Both are getting a in Illusion Blue Berry. Also just ordered a Valve cover and intake manifold. As well. Examples below.
Covers came in from powder coating. They looks great. Once the valve cover and intake manifold get here I'll get them all put in and get a few pictures.

So since I got the Valve cover and intake manifold yesterday, I'm not 100% happy with the quick cheap spray job that was done. I've decided that I'm make it look good and a good quality paint job myself (again). Thanks for the heads up against powder coating the VC. I did my current Valve Cover about 4.5 years ago. I think I'm sticking to the red color, maybe metalcast or maybe metallic have sorted that part out yet.
Here is the one I did a few years ago.

I chose Barcelona Red Metallic for the VC and intake Manifold. It's actually a Toyota color BTY1618. Also going to paint the accent color the SS in the headlight covers the same color.
Did a few things. I ordered some redline goods goodies, a shift boot, ebrake boot, and arm rest cover, back in November. I had some issues with the material being wrong, and had return and reorder, but it was all sorted out and looks good. Also ordered the ZZP intercooler kit with the charge pipes.
Also new wheels have been ordered, and tires. Sticking with BFG G-Force Sport Comp-2s 225-40/18. I got the AEM AFR gauge in, it just needs to be wired. New headlights are in the works along with matching fog lights. More pictures to follow.

You're back! Im glad you saw my message on insta! Looks good man! I really like the shifter boot and e brake cover! It matches very well!
Thank you. I Gotta figure out what I want to do with the steering wheel. I love the C6/flat bottom one, but they get expensive. I have a few more things I want to do on the interior.
