Out with the old and in with the new!!! Yucky 330cc injectors. They were all rusted and dirty. Super glad I did these. I also feel a difference in starting the car. Starts up immediately with no issues!

So this is a bit random. I remembered I did not have any hose clamps to put back the powersteering hose so I just ziptied it and completely forgot to install a clamp. Started moving the car and I heard a big pop and heard something fall down. All my powersteering fluid leaked down and I found this on the ground. Had a shop check it and they said it is not required to be in the hose. So far its driving fine but any of you guys have an idea of what I am supposed to do?

This is my 3rd install of a pulley on an r53 but the first time I had to cut off the pulley. Very scary and I just kept grinding and grinding. Kept a spray bottle of water next to me to frequently spray and keep the temp down in hopes that I do not melt the gasket behind the SC shaft. Came off and installed the pulley with no problems. Super happy.

What did I say? I knew something was off and I called it once I got my car back from the guys that did my clutch! Seems like they broke the black snout off the inlet tube and used this weird cement foam glue to put it back in place. It worked but I am def not happy about it and will soon be replacing it.

So a dumb mistake on my end but I forgot to insert the boot on the tierod so I just rigged it up for now until I can find another boot to put in.

Same on this side I needed to modify the boot to work.

New power steering hoses in this photo. The old ones were so worn, I was able to twist the hoses even with the clamps on. Now with the new ones in, they are able to hold the res up fully!

So much room underneath. I worked on the subframe then I cleaned up the undercarriage. This is when I drained the oil and replaced the oil pan gasket along with the oil filter housing gasket.
