Looks good. What are you going to use to polish the tails?

Wetsand, then some of that Meguiars 101 and 201.

Been driving it just about every day since I got it back from paint. So far so good, trans feels great, zero complaints!

Got the WB logging issue resolved. My hvac blower wasn't working randomly, got that resolved. Got the trans tunnel holes (from trans swap) covered with thick rubber. Put new spark plug boots in and new BCPR7ES plugs all around.

Today I sadly mounted my front plate. Car looked so nice without it but it is what it is, I don't want to fear getting pulled over everytime I drive past a cop. Bought a universal front plate mount from Bell. Turned out great I think :)

Also made a little video. Sorry for the quality during the driving, the camera cam loose from it's mount and I didn't realise it until halfway through the drive.

I need a ride in this thing. The sound of a 2JZ is just intoxicating

Swapped out the off the shelf trans fluid for this Amsoil cocktail.

Also got the stereo all back up and running. 10" sub and amp in the trunk. New tweeters in the front stock location, so nice to have decent sounding music again!!

And I've realized my 3rd brake light on the spoiler isn't working. It was some LED one off ebay that fit the Accord spoiler. Thinking it may just be DOA. Minor stuff though :)

Did it get back in for the tune yet?

No, still trying to get a slot to get the last section of the exhaust finished up. Haven't tried scheduling dyno yet. I want to make sure I've knocked everything off my tick list before setting up another dyno appointment.

I did install my Autometer GPS speed sensor tonight. Followed the generic instructions on how to cal it to any speedo and the cal appeared to work as designed on the stock speedo. Now just need to take it for a spin and see if it works!
