Not much going on here the past few days. I’m trying to focus on registering the car so that I can enjoy it some more. I’ve only put about 25 miles on it since ownership and each time I drive it I find something else I’d like to refresh. Here’s an updated picture of the engine bay.

And a before and after 2 months.

I should be receiving my HFC134A warning label tomorrow from Amayama according to the tracking info. Today, my local dealer should be bringing me the remainder of my PCV system also. More pics on that later.

On the agenda for the next few pages:

-Rear Suspension & Brakes
-Interior Cleaning
-Exterior Cleaning

The PCV system is back to original. I can rest easy now.

Did you manage to get a usdm or EU solenoid bracket or do something else?

I was wondering why they put the purge on the car in the first place without the canister? Did it have an emissions test? Engine bay is looking fresh. The purge hanging there is off par with the rest . I know you got this! Also could you text me a few pics before the canister goes in please? The car is really coming along. Great job! Hot .

I have the EU bracket but I’m still actively searching for a USDM.

Thanks Stin. It had to pass Arizona or Texas emission, not sure which one. That is why they had it all plugged in I’m sure.

Yes I know it’s fugly lol. The canister should go in next, I will send pics once I get the battery and tray out for ya.

So weird. It's not like those part numbers are difficult to find. Some company trying to protect their mark up?

That was my guess too. I found them second hand.

She has landed. This was from Amayama for anyone in need. Not sure of the stock left but it worked for me.
