Default 94 back on the ground...

Did a small list of things to my 94 6speed coupe and got it on the ground. Hooker shorties are back on blowing thru MagnaFlow cats and Corsa exhaust. Fixed a couple of oil leaks. Fixed a ton of little things I don't even want to get into.

Got a short sound clip of it.

Sounds great. I hear you on all the work. Seems like every few months I have to put my 94' 6 speed up on stands to fix some leaks and other fun things.

Thank you! It is a nice feeling. It's a little quicker by the SOTP. Kinda loud, though. I added an MSD coil, E3 plugs, new fuel pump & filter, replaced intake, EGR, and valve cover gaskets. Fixed power steering pump bracket. Replaced shocks. Tracked down short on alternator wiring (long story, not fixed yet). Fixed A/C wiring. Fixed O2 sensor wiring. (Wires were cooked bare and I think shorting out causing a strange stumble. With all I fixed who knows what got rid of stumble.) Cleaned out the intake & EGR. I am happy to say there are no oil leaks yet. Going to flush brake fluid today or tomorrow at the shop. This winter it's getting new leather, rebuilding steering column, getting the Bose head unit rebuilt, and MIGHT bolt on a set of OBX long tubes.
