    I feel ya Smeedia - every used sports car I've ever owned from my first (a RX-7) to by current baby (a 2008 WRX hatchback) has always had a bunch of sketchy stuff AND spare wires left over from who-knows-what. Good to see someone else that knows how to treat a car. :)

    I run my coilovers like that on my legacy gt the reason you have the coilovers top hats pointing towards the middle of firewall is to add positive castor which helps you handle better if the alignment is good and when you turn it adds more camber so you can take corners a little more aggressive

    • @Smeedia
      @Smeedia  4 года назад +1

      I've seen some people do it but one coilover is installed as for camber adjustment while the other is installed for caster 😅

    Nice GD !! A few things while your at it , check the AVCS screens and remove them as per the TSB. On a cold morning below freezing it may leak fuel from the rubber lines under the manifold. Other than that you should have fun with it.

    • @Smeedia

      @svtwrc 4 года назад

      Smeedia went with the Gates racing timing belt at 105k so it’s been around 20k no issues with the belt or tensioner. Went full OEM fuel lines rebuilt just like the factory but with way better clamps for when the hoses shrink a touch. Valve covers are a breeze. My motor internals and turbo are still stock 04 just waiting for an issue but nothing in 10 years and I’ve rallycrossed it Autocross , Snow drifting occasionally street run and oh so many data log pulls. If the clutch pedal is making noise it’s either the rod into the firewall is dry or there is a kit for firewall welds coming apart. ruclips.net/video/T8UwMcQyfd0/видео.html

    If the fuel smell is mainly when you first start it up then it's the fuel lines feeding the fuel rail. Some cars are so bad that raw fuel drips on the engine and as it evaporates you'll get a nice fuel smell in the cabin. Tighten the clamps or replace the lines and clamps. Easy fix, but it's a pain to get to them.
