OMG.... can it get any better ? Yes it can.... Took Yoshida out in the Canyons after about 3 months... The shifting is great... no grinding of any kind, going up or down the gears... Also the LSD coming out of the corners is way noticeable... I'm way more confident with putting the power down earlier... and then the 2.5 turn steering rack now allows me to never take my hands off the wheel at any point on the 23... perfect... I kinda think I feel the light weight flywheel making the engine a little more responsive... I should have gone with the even lighter one but I was leaning on the side of caution...

That was one of the best feelings I've had... Can't wait to take her on the track on the 21st...

And if that wasn't enough when I parked in front of Starbucks this morning a "Fast and furious" looking Spanish girl was staring at Yoshida... came back out to take pics of the front , rear and interior... What a great feeling when you see someone else admire your car...  I'm used to the older white dudes with muscle cars who have no idea what it is or like my neighbor bellow thinking it was a kit car :)

 drove car today... vacuum leak fixed a lot including the need to wait under 2,000 rpm to disengage gear so it doesn't idle high... That fuck'n Linh mechanic is worthless...  anyways... also no problems getting into gear... except for one new issue... 1st gear is a little hard to get into ???? replaced the 2nd shift cable to OEM, didnt fix the problem but Im happier having OEM then MR2 Heaven... also changed transmission fluid...
