IMO the UEGO sucks. I am not a big fan of it at all. That being said, the CD has the Innovate software on it. There are some programs in there for datalogging and also you can get a big ass gauge on your screen if you want. Innovate makes some very nice products, although they arent cheap.

I purchased my UEGO from a local who sold it to me brand new for $150, but brand new I believe they go for around $200 depending on who you order through.

The front bank... Better than when I first got them!
![]() ![]() ![]() Well, I finally got a chance to get under the car and get my down pipe off and welded as well....Loverly welds are all cracked or breaking. So I just had the down pip finished... beautiful.![]() Inside... ![]() Apon installing I thought everything was good....WRONG! Found a bit of light coming from, you guessed it, the rear bank. Well, I might as well get it done as well. You can see where the crack is and how I taped it to keep the correct position of the holes. ![]() Here is the new Clock pod I just has cleared as well... Ooooo Pretty. ![]() ![]() ...the CF work was done by another member but I did the clearing. Here is the one I had in the car for years and as you can tell the material is pulling away from the piece and is cracking...Not sure what I am going to do with it. ![]() A picture of my radio bezel after a fresh coat of clear, just doing a little wet sanding and buffing to really make her shine. ![]()

Was going to go to work today, but it is so windy and cold that it would be just a huge fight..
So I went to the coffee shop and visited some of the older guys. ![]() Came home and much to my surprise.... ![]() ![]() Had to test the new A/F to see how it would fit. Due to the shallow back I couldn't put it where narrow one is now, so I had to step up. ![]() ![]() Here is what is going in place of the narrow band A/F....Kind of see what is going to happen this winter? ![]()

That radio bezel and clock pod look great. And the gauges there are very nice. One day I hope to add some necessary gauges, probably on a triple gauge pillar though.

Progress from last weekend, going to get back out to the shop in a little bit to try my new O2 bung that just came in from Summit.
Here are some pics...The 3G...apart. ![]() Wiring up the wideband and the oil temp gauges. ![]() ![]() Wideband installed ![]() ![]() ![]() Not that bad if I do say so myself. :snap: ![]()

Update...
Rubber gromit worked like a glove, just had to grind the hole out a bit more to make it work; it seals tight and works good. Did a "free-air" calerbration on the LC-1 and re installed that, fired her up and the new wideband works cat's ass! Now all I have to do is get the light wire installed for the oil temp and that gauge can be installed....And yes, I worked on my car on Christmas Eve. I wanted to get it done to see how it looked and I am very happy with the results.....now it is time for a drink and visit with the family. Merry Christmas everyone!

What's the red switch by your foglights for?
Gauges look nice, glad to see it's coming along for you! I worked on my car today as well. Only mine involved taking off the intake manifold and puttig it back on.

I must admit it to you, your 3g is my inspiration. I llove those wheels, Ive been searching and searching for something that looks like them, because Im looking for a black with chrome/polished lip but I dont want a five spoke. I would love some like yours but copying is no fun. Lemme know if you ever want to sell those
Your wheels look great. Ad if I understood correctly didnt you buy the silver RSVs and just paint the spokes black?

Now what I was told, is since the Gunmetal (18x7) are gone; if I ever had a issue and needed a wheel I got get a Bronze one and have it powder coated... Not sure if I would do that but I don't know.

Haha and what might that price be?
How much did it cost to have all four painted? Are they powdercoated? But arent all the three colors the same, just painted spokes and part of the lip? TEchnically you could paint any of the three black and they would turn out the same, and actually I think I saw some gunmetal ones on NEXT's website I will look again and look for a link and post it upEdit: enkei rsv gunmetal gloss Wheel Rim at WheelsNext.com

Got to Chicago again without a hitch. Mom, Dad, and our friend Danny Little followed me over to come to the Press Days with me. Roads were fine and clear after we got past Flint, MI... We got into Chicago around 3:30 and stopped and got the hotel room (where my parents and Danny will be staying) and headed into town. Got to the show and met up with my contact Nate Russell, got registered and got all of our press passes....All I wanted to do was see the car.
I was a nerved up as a cat in a room full of rocking chairs... Kind of stupid I guess, but everything is new to me and was excited to see what they all did to my car... Then I seen her.. ![]() I almost cried. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I will have better pics tomorrow, these were taken with my Cell Phone. Never would I ever dreamt that something I put together would be on this grand of stage...This isn't some rinky dink home town car show, or a festival show, this is the AUTO SHOW! Again, I can not express how honored I am to have been picked and be here. More pictures to come as tomorrow were will be there for the Main Press Day.
