Not yet. I finished buttoning it up and filling the fluids while listening to a conference call, and I didn’t have time to get the under body plastic up during lunch.

Meh, who needs the plastic for a test run.

Some of it was hanging down so I could get to certain things when I was working on the car

Looks like my oil pressure sensor is leaking out of the plastic. Good news is a new one is $25

New oil pressure sensor/switch installed and it's not leaking anymore. Got gas in it and ran it through the carwash. I submitted the paperwork to remove it from non-op status online yesterday, but I still need to smog it before I can really drive it. I also need to figure out what I'm doing for wheels and tires for real now. The wheels on it don't all match (1 is a different design) and the tires have a 2017 date code with all kinds of cracks on them.

Ah, 2017 was a good year…

It's really good to see it here after all the misery its caused you. Congrats.

I'll feel even better when I get it smogged so I feel a little better about driving it. Then I'm just waiting on the sticker.

Isn’t it nice driving something small after that big truck all the time.

It feels super darty compared to the 5600lb+ truck

Imagine going from a f250 to the vette. Lol. It's nuts.

I like different aspects of a big vehicle, but I swear…for 90% of the time I want to be in a little fun car.

Excited you got it fixed. Now you have a little sporty 4 door for the whole family. If i can find an Evo 9 at a decent price i would be right there beside you.

Unfortunately the time for reasonably priced Evos that aren’t destroyed has long since passed.

Yeah that’s beside the point

It passed the smog inspection today. I scanned the certificate and attached it to my open request with the DMV Virtual Office.
