My direct ignition module had been acting up lately, the car felt sluggish and finally started throwing a P1312 code once a week or two. Used DIs sell well under $100 on eBay these days, so I picked up another unit and plugged it in. Feels like a whole new car now! It's amazing how important those things are.

My Saab just hit 400,000 km tonight... while merging a hwy 400 ramp, boosting a healthy 15 psi at light throttle.

Spent almost 4 hours tonight, troubleshooting software issues on a customer's car. The stubborn car would only run properly on one particular build of Trionic7. So incredibly frustrating! The owner exhibited wonders of patience and stayed after dark, until everything got resolved.

A successful blend door repair, both sides. Yay to hot air in the winter instead of summer!

Got a complete Aero interior from AktiveMotors - just in time for my birthday. Boy, those vented seats are awesome! Big install job coming right up.

Replaced the rear brakes with large 300mm vented rotors and calipers from an Aero. Installed Goodridge stainless braided brake lines. Pictures to come!

Need new rear brakes ASAP. Just picked up a pair of vented rear rotors from Aktive. Time to pull those Aero calipers from the closet. Only waiting for the stainless braided lines to arrive now.

The server went bottoms up on Monday. Started up, only to go down again on Tuesday, this time permanently. Thankfully, the RAID array is intact. Two days and $20 later, a new motherboard is installed (Craigslist rocks), and everything is up and running again. To everyone who emailed, worrying about the club or the gallery - thanks for your support.

Replaced the gearbox mount on the 9-5. Easiest engine mount job ever!
