That'd be a lottt of parts numbers. I'd hate to be the guy filling that one out...

Ajay, good to hear that the car's getting fixed. Hope everything runs like before when you get her up and going. (and no you don't know me... hahaha As the other says I'm the "wish-i-owned-an-evo" asian kid that never goes to meets)



Happy friday guys!

And Dave, I am going to work more on re-stockifying the car. I will be ripping stuff out tomorrow. Boost contoller, gauges, WBO2, & FPR are all coming out. After I get my exhaust back mid next week, I will do the exhaust. If by then, the people who gave me offers on my car do not work out, I may consider your proposal Dave...

There is a solution to Mitsu's lack of warranty support. If you are paying full coverage, then I do not see how they could deny you if Mitsu does, and Mitsu should be covering this without a doubt.

And this is a no-incident claim:
-No moving violation
-No bodily injury
-No 2nd or 3rd party involvement, and zero physical and/or property damage

I say you have a lot more on your side to getting this covered than you think.
Hey tim,
Finally changed the oil on the bike (yea I know, I just never rode it much in the first place) but just wondering but are there any good websites I could order new aftermarket brake lines off of? I noticed my rear brake line had previously encountered my tire and rubbed through the protective layering and was nearly at the main line itself..

Reconstructed bike FTMFL..

Bruce, just an FYI that my sister got $8000 in trade for her car. If people know your car was in the accidents (and how bad they were), I would not be surprised if you only got ~$9000 private party.

I haven't heard back from them yet, but Marshall I think I know who your insider is. I'll give them a call at lunch if I don't get one from them before then.

yeah i think that's pretty obvious. not only that - but he'll have a huge turnaround $$$ for flipping your car.



yeah turco! taking a stand! HAHAHA, but in all seriousness - i can't believe that with all the tolls they take - they are losing millions per year? thats just F'd up. something is not right there. where does that money go.
