It is getting all spider webby, I will have to get some super fine grit sand paper to clear that up. I got about 4 coats of high gloss black on it so far ![Smilie](https://www.rx7club.com/images/smilies/smile.gif)
On a different note, I changed the oil in my sisters Mazda3 today. Holy crap, they do not want you working on your own car anymore! I couldn't find where to put the jack at. You have to remove the big underbody tray to get to anything. Well, nothing to put the jack on but the subframe... way in the back! Busted out the ramps... that will scrape the bumper. Nothing like doing it on the ground with 5" of clearance

Dang Stu. That is a killer deal on that SA. I was looking on Craigslist the other day and found a couple of deals.

Andre came by last night and we wired a relay to his e-fan. Just dumb luck running into him at the store! He finally got to see the Turbo FB first hand. I told him about the torrid history behind the old girl. Where she came from, and how she got to where she is now. If Andre of anyone else is interested, here's the build thread fo the old girl.......https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...roject+updates

I wired up and installed the e-fan! Looks like it was supposed to be there. Thanks for the deal Sam. I chose to install a adjustable thermostat relay set-up. It allows you to turn the fan on earlier or later. I will get my thermo gun from work and see what it turns on at tomorrow. This relay also gives the option for turning on the A/C fan when it needs it. And since Elizabeth has expressed the desire to have a/c again this worked out well.

37 bucks from auto zone.About the same from Advance. Only real thing i don't really like is that the temp probe just gets wedged into the fins
I set the fan up to run on the hhigh speed motor, that thing pulls some freakin air. I had a miny tornado od plastic shreds under the car when it was running

I made the aluminum insert that goes in the top rad hose right after the water pump and also made one for bryan at rotorsports that went in the rear heater hose.
also warning on the high speed on the tarus fan, it roasted my relay twice. not sure why but melted the crap out of it
