Mini-update:
I've got a bit of a vibration coming into the steering wheel, so I started troubleshooting. Balanced the wheels, rotors are new, bushings looked ok, but my drivers side axle pops and the boot seems to have leaked most of it's grease.
So, got a new set of swap axles coming.
A/C stopped blowing cold (went up to 62 degrees). Found out it's leaking from the R134 conversion adapters. Gonna evac, swap them out with new ones I just picked up, clean up and vacuum test, then recharge and see if that works better.
Other than that, She's still running strong and bouncing off the 9000 RPM redline.

Quick photo update as I dump pics off of my phone.
Few recent shots of the engine as it sits... I NEED to redo my valve cover! LOL
And I had a little bit to mess around, so I put one of the hatchback wheels onto the sedan to see what it would look like. Aside from needing to be lowered, I think it looks pretty damned good.

I'm about this close to tossing out my Skunk2 alpha throttle body away and getting a BWR or Edlebrock throttle body. I'm pretty positive it's causing very slight idle issues still, not to mention that even though I multimeter tuned my TPS to read perfect half a volt idle to WOT voltage, it still causes the TPS CEL to come on and stay when I floor it. It clears when I shut the car off, but it still bothers me that something might be off with it. The TPS is a factory sensor, btw, since Skunk2 doesn't come with one.
