Not for my car, but wanted to support a local business who does 3-D printing….I gave him a picture of my Fortune Auto coilovers. Pretty cool desk lamp ornament.

12mm and 8mm 57.1 to 66.56 adapters came in, as well as a Fluidampr crank pulley. Spacers were something like $76 speed on ebay, and after random browsing, I stumbled across a website that had a pretty solid price shipped for the pulley. My redline is 7200 so it can't hurt, and I trust Mike @ MotoIQ and their test results... cheap insurance.

Dumbass moment of the day — I had the desire to open up the fluidampr and had a shitty realization that my research gave me the wrong p/n for the pulley. Correct p/n should be 551231. I emailed the company to see if I can work something out to sort out my error. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Defi gauges showed up. These things look awesome. Mad at myself for not getting them sooner.

Cool, but why would you want this?

Factory 4-door buckles won't work with Pole Position ABEs. 2-door buckles do, but I'm imagining the Porsche ones have just a little more flexibility/length by design. In my experience, if you "fall" in the seat at the wrong angle, you'll get a buckle shot to the low back and wonder where the bruise came from 3 days later.

I really need to check out a set of those and see how they fit. Sparcos are not the move.
