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 :)

 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... 
 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...
 Bled the clutch fluid yesterday... test drove car today... all good... Oil pressure gauge not working is really annoying especially because it was working when I took it to Scallys auto... fuckers... Useless redneck fucks...
