Not a whole lot has been going on with the car lately, it's been at a friends shop all week getting an exhaust made for it. I should be getting it back on monday. The trans grenaded 3rd gear two days before I was going to take it to autocross so that got pulled out and overhauled as well.

After talking with Jonathan when I was in Atlanta last weekend, he put the bug in my head to find 2nd gen brakes for it so I'm starting on that project now too, as well as I still need to replace the brake booster as it leaks. At some point it's going to need paint so i'm starting to look for a good place to take it to for that as well.

Here's a pic from about an hour before the trans stopped shifting higher then 2nd gear. I had just put on my track tires and wheels for a trial fit and took it around the neighborhood before heading home for the weekend.
