I'm not going to do much. I always get carried away. I am going to force myself to keep this one mild It's pretty high mileage so I will drop some pistons/rods in it for safety. Do a valve job. Going to put a low cost clutch in it. Stages 1-4. I have a new fuel management that I've been needing to try as a free trial, probably throw that on. (yes this is a mild build to me! haha) If I spend any real money on the car I'll do suspension stuff. I might not even do as much as I've just listed, I'd like to find a NASA class for the Nationals to fit it into. Going to be a lot more fun than the Eclipse! The paint is rough and ugly........may end up going flat black like my brothers truck! It's painted BMW blue and it's not too good.

We are working on the Apexi N1's we've been running. I have a guy I sent them to that works in the aerodynamic industry (wind tunnel) so he has some cool contacts and such. He's testing them on a shock dyno now, going to improve on them and come up with a new spring that's much lighter and will work even better. Should make for a kick *** low cost coil over. Hell as far as I am concerned they work great out of the box.

Anyway, should have the car in a week or so, called the transporter today to pick it up.

Big plans. And you're right, to me it's more than mild, especially within the time frame you have before the first event. So I'll see you in April.

I went to CSU and I currently work right around the corner on E. 30th. I parked in the parking garage attached to the business building and had good luck. I'd avoid the garage on 21st or 22nd (it's a one way that goes from Chester to Euclid) that's kinda near the Cage. Kind of a shady, spooky garage in my opinion. I leave work at 4:30, usually. We gotta hook up, man! You got your new car, eh? NOICE!!!!!

Yeah, my tip for you: take the f***ing bus.

Seriously, it's a nightmare. CSU handles parking horribly. I was so happy when I got access to the special dorm parking lot Soph - Senior years...
