Alrighty... As most of you know, the car is back on the road with only a few minor issues left to be worked out (hunting idle, small ps leak, and inconsistent and tiny coolant leak that might not even really be there). I did take *some* pictures of the maintenance work - the mostly-complete album can be found here. Still missing a couple of my "after" shots which will be uploaded tonight hopefully.

Planned on replacing the timing belt, cam seals, crank seal (front main), idler pulleys, water pump, thermostat, t-belt tensioner, accessory belts, VTC o-rings, VTC springs, spark plugs, fuel filter, air filters, pcv valves, and a few other things. My only planned upgrade in all of this was replacing the stock radiator with a Howe.

Ended up replacing all of that plus the intake valve cover seals, almost all vacuum lines on top of engine, all fuel lines, throttle body hoses, crank pulley (yay for the underdrive pulley!), fan, woodruff key, all t-belt cover bolts (somehow I lost half of them), VTC cover bolts (snapped), radiator cap, and half a dozen other pieces. And we changed all the fluids too.

Things I wish I had done - replaced lower radiator hose with a hard pipe, bypassed TB water lines, removed EGR and carbon canister, removed HICAS lines from engine bay... I just didn't want to mess with anything else - but I'll probably do most of the rest of this the next time I get in there deep...

Here are some highlights:


The engine bay before I did anything.


Wrapping the cam sprockets with the old t-belt to facilitate their removal. This was a cool trick from tt.net.


Most of the parts that came out. I forgot to take a picture of the plenum sitting on the floor too...


Upper plenum removed and driver's side intake valve cover removed. Looks pretty good for an (allegedly) 131k mile engine!


Maeng filling the diff with Redline 75w90 and his belly with oh-so-yummy Coors Light. Note the ghetto rig - there's actually one in the album thats even more ghetto, see if you can find it!

So there you have it.

I'll just cut and paste what was emailed to me:

"Harry Grove Stadium in Frederick, MD is the location of our next autocross event, on SATURDAY December 4th. Due to the cold temperatures and the day being shorter, this event will be an abreviated autocross with 4 runs (5 depending on time) with two heats.

"Registration will be an hour later at 9:30. We will be having only 40 cars, two heats, with 4 runs (5 if we get lined up quickly). One heat will run and the other will work. Then we switch, pack up and go home.

"The event fee is $20 for members and $25 for non-members at this event. So if you plan to attend, e-mail me your name(s), make, model, year and color of your vehicle.

"The annual membership is $25 (if you do more than 2 events, its probably worth just joining).

"If you have any comments or questions, please feel free to contact me.

Right...so I've never done an autox with them, and I won't be able to attend on that day, but just figured I'd let ya'll know!
