OKAY! SO...................
I had a huge delay waiting for the correct part to come in! wrong part came, sent it back, another wrong part, sent it back and finally the right one came in about 3 weeks of wasted time! I needed the connector that has the extended male plug connecting to the 95-96 vented opti. But once i got it all went well. Last post everything was back in, so heres the FIRST start up, some pics, and i just got back from a little joy ride in the RAIN! i love driving in the rain! (very rare here in San Diego)


Huge shout to ALL the members for your advice and knowledge!

ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO WHEN I FIRST GOT HER.







First Start up! (pretty excited)




After a rainy day all warmed up!


1992 6speed LT4
