Dude that thing is cool, even if it IS RED I bet is hauls.ass! :rocking:
It doesn't do too bad. Pretty fun little car to drive. And yes, red isn't my first choice either but it is what it is LOL


Over the weekend I replaced the front hub and brakes and found some awesome stuff from a previous owner. Pretty sure this is why my ABS and traction control light is on. Gonna order a new harness this week to fix it :rolleyes: Have no idea what they were trying to accomplish.

Done nothing cool with it other than maintenance and getting that up to snuff. While this car seems to have been taken care of overall there are some things they really neglected.

done since purchase...
—brakes all four corners
—supercharger oil changed
—abs harness replaced on front driver (no more abs or tcs lights)
—spark plugs
—pre-cat O2 sensor
—swapped fogs to LED bulbs
—a few oil changes
—new battery
—front passenger door weatherstripping
—front wheel bearings (twice)

near future...
—front shocks
—supercharger coupler
—headlight housings
—rear door lock actuator
—supercharger serpentine belt. Might do the other belt at the same time but who knows

I’ve got a couple oil leaks that I need to track down too but that’ll be some time later this summer, probably. Not horrible at this point but would be something to tackle when all other things are handled and I’m looking for something to do lol

Coupler for the supercharger showed up yesterday from ZZP. Also got new headlight assemblies to get rid of these old, dingy, yellowed ones.

Today or Friday the supercharger oil and belt should arrive so I should have things to do at least half the day on Saturday. :)

I'll see if I can't rectify this issue.

You will love new clear headlights. I did that on my Dakota, fogs too with leds. Was very happy with them after I put them on. Major difference. Got t o do that on my SS because they're all yellow. Already did the fogs. It's the 3 Benjamin's I don't wanna part with. Lol
