Passed SMOG But.... discovered that my check engine light was not working... Guy said it was probably bulb... I changed the bulb , still not working... I took it to ETL Garage... they found that the check engine light wire was cut... after fixing that , I had error 52... Knock Sensor... luckily I had one... he fixed it... during that fix he found another wire that controls fuel flow... fixed that... turns out that fuel flow fix solved my cold start problems... The knock sensor makes the car acceleration much better... The check engine light still comes on every now and again, but car is better then it was... I still feel a lot of little quarks going on... But hell, thats what gives Yoshida her character :)

 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...
