My apologies about your car but get that bish fixed

you now made me curious to see my plugs because i bought a new set and they have been sitting in my room for about 3 days now, i was going to wait for the next oil change, but now u have me curious to see if mine are really that shot and could have caused this...

thanks dude... part of me wishes it happened at the track though lol at least i could have made the event with it, and since there was a decent amount of breakdowns, i wouldnt have felt as bad...

i went just to watch, i rode down with 2 friends and their evo's... just jealous that i couldnt bring mine to roll along with them... but the event was pretty good and i made it for the day and had fun which is all that mattered...

if you have the same luck as me remind me never to meet you! just kidding...

damn, nothing like going all out on just a coolant leak! good luck with the build dude! you should make 400 no doubt! im thinking about selling the black and going with the red instead since i daily the car!

because my dad is a cheap *** and i dont have the money for a tow truck, even if it was only 3 miles... so my dads genius idea is to push the car with the beater car which now f***** my back bumper up and is going to cost more to fix than just having it towed... my dad and i dont get along and he isnt into cars, or any of my hobbies for that matter... hopefully moving in with the GF within the next month or so...

if im not deployed i will be there! but im looking forward to the deployment scheduled since i could use the money, being unemployed right now...

unfortunately no it wasnt, which raped my back bumper

i had that happen too lol... good thing my brother was in the passenger seat, it sucked because it wasnt downhill... blew the coupler off the LICP...

yeh well my dad is a moron i told him to bring the rope and hook, because i had it since the honda days

the moron says he cant find it, all he brings is a dead flashlight...

well once we got the car in the garage, took me 5 sec to find the damn rope and hook... exactly where i said it was, right next to the fridge, in the car cover box...

my dad is common sense stupid, a complete book worm.... he thought my car uses 5 spark plugs... enough said...

I did not accept that I had a spun bearing... Its been torn appart now for three months, I sit and stair at cylinder 4 rod bearing and shake my head talking to it saying "I thought you were stronger than that!"

WHYYYYY!!!" then the devil start whispering in my ear, " Hey once you put this back together your TCase will fail... and your tranny will start grinding" so I say its all apart... OFF TO T.R.E for Stage THREE!!!! It never ends brother...

So my replacement long block sits here, my Exedy Twin HD sits at Exedy waiting for one of the replacements discs to come in from japan, so they can finish my rebuild, Monday heading over to TRE to drop off my tranny and tcase, so maybe I will be able to finish to enjoy the WINTER again....

FYI, Look at my Join Date: Dec 2009... LOL!

be careful with that one too... did the same thing and it cost me way more than a engine rebuild.

sucks about the car, perfect opportunity to build something beastly though.
