Took it to work so my wife and friends don't hit it while taking tailgate table/chairs/cooler, etc. out of the garage for the game.

Installed Mil.Spec throttle body seals and a new gasket, Broke off not 1 but both bolts inside the manifold for the bracket that holds the throttle cable. Tapped them out and put a random bolt i found in so i can try and limp to mitsu and buy 2 new bolts and hopefully figure out why it feels tight as hell in the same spot it was in. THEN i bought a mequiars paint restore kit cause the ol RR is getting to be rally pink. Yeah its been a long day already.

Just left meeting with Chris at Mellon racing, he gave it a good once over to seal up leaks, and see what it needs for a proper tune, driving back to Nashville with the copper plugs, what a big difference! Thanks Chris!
