thanks guys! ordered map ecu 2 and a good clutch. received my fan clutch and fan in the mail last night and installed it - i would take a pic but i forgot the camera... but i need to figure out what im going to do about a fan shroud heh wondering if my 7m one still fits on the large fan side

edit: found a bolt to use as a plug for my second oil feed line with a gasket on it, nice! bolted it in with some loctite

installed my 7m oil pres sensor on a driftmotion oil pres adaptor as well - pita when you do it as late as i did but i got it done in 15 mins

That's some weak ass snow. I should take a pic of what it's like outside when i go out to the local meet today haha.

yeah it was hehe compared to other places - but still glad i have that heater or else my fingers would hurrrt

here is last years snow - a day into the blizzard but it kept snowing on and off for a couple of weeks on top of it and it took a while to melt down

Snow is good as long as you have ski's/snowboard, good fireplace.

great pics. if you plan on using stock fan shroud and route you ic piping around it let me know as that is one of things still on my list.

let me know if you got the harness stuff also.

i was actually going to try and use my 7m shroud and cut off the portion near the IC - > TB thing and put a aluminum sheet in its place or something but its really low priority right now (im feelin REALLLL lazy)

Fit a fan shroud on today - i hacked off the A/C fan section to clear for my Throttle body IC piping from my 7m shroud. so now i will copy the mkiv fan shroud and make a little plate over where the throttle body is on the radiator
