I'd just like to say RJ's paint job and color scheme is better than anything you'd ever see Maddox make fun of on his site.
Picked up a carbon fiber duckbill spoiler from some guy locally for dirt cheap. Installed... looks neat, shed a pound or two, but I need to buy a strip of LEDs and wire it up for my 3rd brake light... I'm gonna get creative and shit

new year, new list. i didn't do a damn thing over the winter other than detail the hell out of the car, put a duckbill spoiler on, and bought a video camera (canon zr830 for $170 on amazon).
must do: change oil, flush brake fluid, secure front tow hook.
want to do: b16 tranny, lower front a quarter of an inch, replace skunk2 camber bolts, new exhaust, install header (dcsports 4-2-1), buy/install intake manifold (blox), rear sway bar, new cluster or get a monster tach, oil pressure and water temp gauges, lightweight battery, cf hood, line-x the trunk.

i noticed flushing the brake system was on your must-do list. do you use the tried and true 2 man method, or RJ's loop the line the crack open a beer method or something else? i've never had luck with RJ's method, i dont think jenn likes helping me bleed brakes and i'm wondering how effective those hand pumps are. anybody have experience with those?

heck, i said flushing the brakes were on the must-do last year... it didn't happen.
i've never gotten rj's method to work. in the past i've used a one-way valve thing i bought at advance many years back. i think the valve has gone bad so i'll likely use the 2-person method.

I have a vacuum bleader - cheap and it works well.

I got one of those Motive power bleeders and found it quite useful. Hardest thing was getting the attachment to seal properly on the brake master cylinder. Once attached, fill it, pressurize it and bleed away. I liked the idea of not having to worry about the master cylinder not running dry. Not quite as quick as the two person method but pretty efficient nonetheless.

Cool. It seems Mach V actually has the best deal of anyoneon them. I've shot an e-mail to them to get more specifics on the model they offer.
Thanks!

Going to vacuum it, acetone it, then wait for a warm day to do the painting.
