Since I plugged the sound generator tube from the cabin side, and since I haven't gotten her anything recently, decided to get and install this Perrin intake tube. This way I could fully remove the sound generator tube all together, and make the engine bay look cleaner/simpler.

Also went on an early 8am cruise with the (somewhat local to me) FT86club guys. I drove down 75 miles to meet up and do this cruise, that turned into a full speed run on the way back from the beach. I've never seen the slip indicator light go off so much before. haha

It was fun, but considering that I've never been on that road in my life, the roads were damp, and I haven't driven Snow White in who knows how long, I was surprised I was able to keep that pace up. I was understeering and oversteering a lot tho. |

FINALLY received the VLEDs V6 Triton switchback LEDs after pre-ordering them back in July.
Left is the VLEDs and right is the Morimoto V-XF Turn signals: |

Gorgeous car! It must be a joy to drive. One thing I would do when first acquiring this car would be to have a front end 3M paint protection film kit professionally applied. Not everyone likes PPF though. I did what would likely be considered a waste by some and had a 3M PPF kit installed on our new 2012 Elantra GLS when we bought it. A much finer car, such as yours, would be deserving IMO.

Unfortunately at the time I got her (2014), I didn't have extra spending money to do PPF (I don't like financing mods and pay mods in whole). She's got some chips (bumper and windshield) from an idiot passing on a shoulder and kicking up debris and rocks. My next vehicle I will be PPF'ing the entire front clip and other portions of the car $$$. |

Changed her oil (had 1500 miles only, but was 13 months old). Oh, and installed a genuine TRD front lip and side skirts =D |

That's an 86 I'd happily drive.

Definitely looks more aggressive now.
And there's that super clean garage again. |

I wish I had more time to drive her. Having alternating 5 and 6-day work weeks suck.
Thanks! hahaha, would be better if there wasn't that concrete stain from when they made the house. I literally thought they parked a truck in the garage and it leaked oil, only to find out that's what happens with concrete. |

Nothing new, other than I drove her last Sunday to try to use up the remaining old gas before filling her up again. |

Installed some Osram LEDs in the rear side marker (top is OEM, bottom is Osram). Those bulbs were the last non-LEDs on the car. Also installed a backup cam (the cam is angled a bit too down, but it's better than nothing), and the Tap-Turn relay (both cars have that now).

Replaced the Berk muffler delete with this Nameless 5" mufflers axle back. Great deep tone, and has more of the UEL boxer sound now. |
