Nausicaa - Project Update - K-Tuned Parts Finally Ordered
Despite my dislike for PayPal I decided the headache of not being able to get the parts I wanted was not worth it. I exhausted all resources / possibilities. If you want to see my issues with PayPal see here. So, basically, this prior post has come to a resolution. Final part order is as follows.

Nausicaa - Project Update - K-Tuned Parts Ordering Blues
All right, so in a prior Nausicaa update I showed a list of parts that included a bunch from K-Tuned. (Nausicaa is our 1993 Honda Prelude project car.) K-Tuned makes some absolutely fantastic parts for the K series Honda engines. In fact I previously ordered from them, they delivered, there were no issues.
Apparently K-Tuned has had a lot of issues with fraud (I am confused by this) and therefore are very hesitant about shipping parts to addresses that are different than the billing address. On my previous order they made an exception and shipped directly to P&L Motorsports, the shop doing the work for us. (I live near Boston, MA and P&L is located near Chicago, IL; shipping to my home address is not very helpful.) And there were no issues, everything was great. So, on February 6th, 2019 I got in contact with Sean at K-Tuned and told him which parts I was ordering next and if based on the prior order being issue free if they could ship to P&L again. Sean said sure and that when I order to place that we had this conversation in the comment section along with the address I wanted it shipped to.
Sounds great!

Nausicaa - Project Update - AiM Data Logger Dash Ordered
We had P&L Motorsports order the parts for our data logging dashboard and camera for us. The supplier should be Pegasus Auto Racing (I will write more about Pegasus when I do a write up on the overall pre-sale experience on all my suppliers at a later date).
We ordered a bunch of AiM data logger parts and accessories.
