 Well its been FOREVER since I posted... Now in Florida...

Im sure too much to mention happened last two years but here we are...

Been noticing its harder to get into 3rd gear. Also car has been revving higher and higher to the point when I was in neutral it would rev all the way up... barley made it home... With a little research ended up finding a major rip in a hose exiting intercooler that was a cheap radiator hose... I replaced it with a proper hose $32 and solved that problem... during that fix I discovered one of the shifter cables was destroyed and most probably causing my 3rd gear shift issue... I finally resolved that issue and replaced cable two times... But now it doesn't come in contact with header and has plenty of heat shielding I will go for my first test drive this coming Tuesday...

So basically Yoshida is a Tuesday Café racer :)

LOVE this 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...
