Also just purchased an a/c delete heater box and new non a/c blower motor which will be installed soon as well. the plenum extension and thermostat housing is further in hte polishing process ,but still not good enough. work performed (general maintnence)- carquest front brake rotors, auto zone cmax gold ceramic brake pads, inner and outer wheel bearings, calipers, brake drums, brake shoes, (painted red, closely matches the exterior) wheel cylinders, fuel filter, ac delco copper spark plugs, msd coil, lower balljoints, rear brake line, reupholstered dash pad, infiniti kappa component front speakers, boston acoustix rear speakers, alpine cd player, advanced auto titanium battery, seat covers, new floor matts, painted steering wheel, removed window tint, added new emblems, mint armrests, new door handle on driverside, repainted door handles to match, 3inch mid pipe.
