Waiting on bolts for the tb adapter but in the meantime my harness and harness bar came in so that was a quick and painless install. On the passenger side i had to cut into the carpet a little to access the bolt hole to mount up the passenger side eyelink but thankfully that was there. Dunno why mazda mounted the bottom part of the seatbelt to the seat rail on the passenger side only.
Those are sexy seats! Many erections will be sat on them.

Thanks, ive had them for about two years now and they are just as nice and comfortable as day 1. I did a couple trips to Dallas in them which is about 1800 miles round trip and they were just fine the whole trip. I like how they almost look like they could be factory too, match the black leather perfect and they fit like they were made to go in this car. Not to mention i had corbeau install their seat heaters in them as well and i wired them into the factory switches so if you didnt know these cars you might think they are a factory option. And if i remember correctly it was only like $1500 for both seats with heaters and brackets with double locking slide rails. I did a write up on the other forum on how to bypass all the factory stuff so you dont get an airbag light or any other issues.

Well hopefully my bolts show up today sometime and im waiting on a coupler to show up tomorrow then i can wrap up my new cold pipe with the tb and get my front end bolted back up. This is kind of what im shooting for.
I did get the damond ps cooler installed and i extended the kosmic dump pipe because i thought it stopped in kind of a dumb spot pretty much facing the oil pan. So i welded on a little extension and wrapped it up so it at least exits the bottom of the car.
I might have to cut off a little more but ill see how it is when i get the underpan installed.
And the bolts showed up yay, installed pics

Well last friday we got shit on with a foot of snow. I was hoping to have everything wrapped up by now but shit happens. Got a lot done today, got done did my lower hotpipe and moved my oil cooler and made a bracket for that and got the whole front end put together. Productive day.
All thats left now is welding up my upper hotpipe and bov flange then bleed the brakes and ill be ready for a test drive.
