Hey Jim (or anyone else who knows) is the e85 in and around Pittsburgh still winter blend ****? I wanna put some e in the car but it's not worth adjusting fuel trims and pulling timing to run on e70 for a month

The giant eagle in cranberry still is. I swapped over to 93 octane a few weeks ago during the bad snow so I didn't have to travel far to fill up. I will let you know next week if Monroeville is still running the winter blend.

I was up there on Sunday conditions were pretty good, not too much ice and they had some good unpacked powder if you wandered off the beaten path.

I may be up there on Sat night, I haven't heard back from a few buddies yet. Enjoy!

I found one

Picked up an EVO yesterday in Jersey. Hopefully it will stay together...
Made it 350 miles without any issues. Only thing I don't like is the stupid Viper alarm. I gotta remove that...very annoying...

here are some quick pics. Stock for now



another one



I will need to swap out the stock clutch (35,000 miles)...amazing it lasted that long. Anyone here in Pittsburgh using the ACT clutches? I want an Exedy Twin Plate...but not looking forward to spending $1600 just for the parts...

yep, other than the Viper alarm system, and the guy had a serious stereo system in the car (but took it out)....engine and such still stock. Slotted rotors...so best guess the car was auto crossed...but I don't see any evidence of suspension mods at all...

Check out the quartermaster, I love mine. Act clutches on evos suck.

This new thread seems rather promising, especially considering the first tag. Greasy **** sex FTW

ROFL. Someone has a great sense of humor.

I was picking up some fries at McD and some woman behind me said for me to bring my car down to Jiffy Lube to get an oil change. She said she'd give me a discount.

Luckily she was married and not very good looking or Mike would have some competition. haha

Will trade your black IX rims for stock IX rims if you are interested.
