Only the back half of the Vararam is changed to the tune version. Front half is the same one. I got the tune section for free from a friend so I figured I'll give it a try! I'm planning on doing a dyno tune in the spring so they can adjust for the tune version!

Well I tried crawling under the rear end to see what's involved in doing some of the suspension work but it looks like it's involved and my neck isn't up to it! :( So, the only low hanging fruit I can get to is a couple paint mods I've been thinking about! Easy pickins!

I finished painting the dip stick and + terminal cover. I just have to touch up the + and install back on the car tomorrow!

I also got around to installing the Powdercoated throttle body, Vararam, and new coupler! The coupler I bought at AutoZone and I had to drill a 3/8" hole in it for the vacuum hose fitting. I replaced my old band clamps with T-clamps which give it a cleaner look and won't distort my Vararam opening like the other ones did!

I couldn't stand the looks of the bare throttle body bolts so I got out my RJT touch up paint today and painted them! Also, in the pic you can see the final paint job on the oil dip stick handle and + teminal cover! Compare this pic to the last one in the last post!

Yea, those bolts stuck out like a sore thumb being unpainted! The positive terminal cover bothered me too because the red color didn't match anything under the hood! Painting it black helps it blend in with the mount and I painted the + RJT. I had left over RJT spray paint from doing the interior trim stuff so I decided to paint the oil dip stick handle with it! Saved me a boatload of money! Those aftermarket painted dipsticks are crazy expensive!

love the rims, splitter, and the grille obviously. Did you just lightly tint your fogs? Looks so good

Thanks! I checked out you build thread and I'm loving the custom paint stuff! CRT is my second fav color! The fogs have gunsmoke tint like the turns and tails but look lighter because of the clear lense.
