Can't wait to be back in the US. Some parts of Europe is still cold. I love our weather in the South.

I was told by my brother that he installed the three oil coolers for the transmission, where I wanted them to be.

Two 30 row oil coolers behind the intercooler . If ever my IS300 fans won't do the job of cooling , I will mount the oil coolers nearer the condenser and install push fans on those oil coolers. I have another 3" of space I believe ...

One 19 row oil cooler on the passenger side where my air filter is... got to install an oil filter before these coolers on that area too.

I have replaced the stock SC400 power steering oil cooler so all my Oil coolers look the same. The engine oil cooler and new PS oil cooler will be installed on the driver side in a V-configuration since I have my intercooler pipe on that side ..

Thanks buddies ! The AEM , I sent it back to AEM headquarters so they can update the Auto Transmission portion. They had a free hardware update for the 30-6100 that uses the A340E transmission. It makes the shift smoother I believe so I sent it back. I should have it back in 3 weeks time I believe. The coolers , making brackets for those on the side is where the challenge is.

I should be back in town this week.. and get this project over with. It's long overdue. Rey , once this car is running let's make a trip to Alabama to see Jay and Mark ! Haven't seen much SC in Europe.. pretty women, a lot of them .. lol. I saw one black SC around Croydon in the UK and that's about it.

Speaking of Barbeque, we went to the ADay game for Alabama last Saturday. While we were in line at Dreamland Barbeque, I got interviewed by a local news team. I don't know what tv show or news, but they ask me about the environment in T-Town. Be on the lookoout for a big ol redneck on the TV... LOL

My wife is out of town, and I have no plans, anyone need help on there SC? Gerry maybe time for another trip to Atlanta this weekend. And I am being serious...... It is also my Birthday, WOOOOOOHOOOOOOO....

Advance Happy B-day Mark. We will make it up to you for missing your birthday ... Rey and I will make a trip to your place as soon as the SC is up and running so we can test it out. I wan't to take it for a long trip without city traffic.

And how was Import Alliance last weekend ? I heard it was another Hondafest ....
