the wifes (Ali's) new car 89 mirage turbo

[TkrPerformance]

worked on it some more today. I put on the 90 turbo tranny with the p.grip I put in it years ago for James. act 2100 p.p. new disk from Craig. act fly wheel. I moved the radiator mounts on the car so I can run a honda 1/2 size in the car. Put the engine in I got all the mounts for the mirage but the front roll stop mount so I used the one from the 90 eclipse and welded on some flat steel to make it work. I started to hook every thing up on the car. I also cut the engine mount off and the most of the power steering bracket to clean it up a little bit.

Awesome that it all works now!

The car is now on the road for the first time in years.
Picked up a 90 oil cooler set up from greasemonkey thurs night. Worked on it till 1130 at night got it running this time with out any oil or coolant leaks. Also got the oil and volt gauges in still have to get a boost gauge to match. They are classic chrome autometer gauges I had laying around. Also picke up ass-hanson's jenson flip out dvd deck for the car and got that in and working.
Also hit up upullit on thurs after noon looking for a housing nothing there but picked up a 5g miage arm rest for the car it fits nice on the 3g center concel.

Only one problem with it right now is the the front pass brake is still draging. Going to look at it in the morring, but I do have a 5lug swap coming for the car,gsx 2 piston front brakes and a set of 3g eclipse (2g gsx style) rims for it now
