Hahahaha, no, I found that on millers weld forums when trying to find out if I could use my C25 bottle for back purging since I am using mild steel for my headers.

I could do better welds than that with my MIG and my eyes closed, and my headers i'll be using my new tig

I hate putting transmissions in when the car is only a foot off the ground.

bought and installed some tranny (shifter) bushings from toyota dealer that way I won't miss third gear . Damn this things are expensive $14 a pop . $84 dollars total
I am glad I did'nt need the rubber gasket that shit was $125 by itself
lesson never buy an r154 tranny without the shifter hardware is gonna cost you more down the road

pressure washed the dog blood and guts out of my engine bay and undercarriage so I can get to the fun part, replacing the oil pan.

Made the actual aluminum adapter to mount the 7/8" bore US Brake master, also swapped the S13 pushrod over to the master, it was the same length, the threads were just different, now I dont have to tap the rod end that goes on the pedal.

Adapter :




Master Cylinder



Master cylinder somewhat in place, I still need to cut down the studs I got for it, as they are too long on both sides.

Turbo timer install = fail last night. Evidently, dropping it on the ground when I first got it wasn't exactly good for it and something is fucked up. Oh well, wanted to go for the Apexi one anyway.

Tim will be very happy to know that the map lights will once again be returning. This is for you, my overly positive and chipper friend.

dropped the tranny and found out I had broken the front cover on the tranny and I destroyed the Spec clutch and pressure plate. Waiting until the help gets home then I am gonna put the new clutch in, replace the tranny, put the new 4.36 rear end in, and change the oil.

Just found out my old blue S14 is wrecked/maybe totaled. Someone hit it while it was parked in front of the new owner's house in Texas. Damn...
