Talked to Anthony today... He said that two of their mechanics are pretty sure the cold start issue has nothing to do with the cold start sensor I bought but has a connection to the ECU ( Engine Control Unit ) basically the computer...

I also told him that I have had at least 3 alignments with them all with the same car pulling to the right results... I asked him whats the problem and that I think it could be the Tie-rods... He said that they replaced the tie-rods at some point... I then told him maybe they are not the same length ? He's going to talk to the alignment people...

Stopped by the upholstery  place but was met by some Mexican dude who could not tell me anything, even whether or not they can do the work, could not tell me the price, nothing.... I left and decided to talk to the alarm installation folks... There guy apparently died last week... yikes... but he recommended a place called Rich & Famous 14741 Bessemer St Van Nuys, CA 91411... If I'm not working with Nicolas this Friday I will go talk to them...

Also the wheel spacers I bought on E-bay do not fit my car so I'm in the process of dealing with them on that.... always something... but at least I can slowly see progress on the car...

Oh, I forgot to mention... The speedometer is now working :) This is my mileage as of this morning

Now that Brant is no longer working looks like he has started working on the engine again slowly... Looks amazing... No Idea how I'm going to afford to get this installed :)
 Its come to the realization I never thought would ever happen... I cant believe I'm writing this... Im going to have to sell Yoshida... financially it makes the most sense and since it looks like Im retired at this point :) and moving to Japan, with no smog setup on the car... forget about it... I'll probably drive her a few more months to the cafe... wow... I REALLY thought I would never sell her... I imagined just staring at her in the garage when I was too old to drive her... Oh well... I can just focus on my wetplate and SIM racing... life is crazy... I never got to finish the turbo upgrade with alcohol water injection...
