Installed the steering rack bushings. Also got some tail lights that I’ve been searching months for. Not sure what they’re called but I had them imported from japan and they finally came in.

They werent too hard to replace, just a pain to hammer the old bushings out with the way the rack is positioned and how limited the space is when working on a car thats on jackstands.

Tossed the front wheels on today so I finally have a matching set. Also got around to wet sanding and polishing all of them so they all look great now

Have you installed the front lower arm bushings yet? I'm considering those but I don't want to make the car ride really harsh. Whats your impression?

I have not gotten to installing them yet. From the other bushings I have installed, I dont feel that the car rides too rough. I would say that it feels a lot more precise.

Default Transmission emulator
How has the transmission emulator worked? Do you have cruise control, what about the problem with speed sensor codes I recently did a six-speed transmission swap and having those problems. Your gs is looking great buy the way!

Thank you. I have yet to install it as Im waiting for a few parts to come in and I will swap the car with all the parts at once as this is my only car. I did install the emulator on a buddies car but he also waiting on a few things before he starts it. I’ve heard great things about it. Its supposed to clear all cel’s related to the auto and keeps the car out of limp mode according to yury. Im not sure about the cruise control though. Here is the emulator installed

Eventually I plan on posting a thread outlining how to do it and the wiring diagrams to do it. Until then people can just message me if they need it.
