Enjoy The Silence!
you wont be hearing from me for about 2 months everybody.(dont start jumping for joy just yet
, I may be going to motorsport ranch as a passenger just for a little fun, or to further depress myself about the car situation)
seems to be that my motor has spun a bearing and will hopefully be shipped off early next week to be rebuilt by david buschur.
This is perfect timing, (sarcasm) as you can see because i just got it back from national auto, several more weeks of boost leaks and testing and fitting new parts, finally we got it running well and tuned nicely. Couldn't have done it right though without Kevins hard work(e85!!!!!!! woohoo!). I got a total of 2 weeks of spanking other cars and the enjoyment of driving a 400+ wtq machine and now this. oh, and did i mention the 4 wheel burnouts while dragracing hahaha! what a rush!
heres the short version. car stolen, wrecked, thanks lojack for finding it, national auto good body work crappy mechanical work(i stress crappy, i stress crappy, i stress crappy)..thats two months, then 3 weeks of getting things right, and finally 2 weeks of enjoying my e85.
that is all. a whole 2 weeks of tatol evo bliss after months of waiting, thats once again traded out for two months of a lincoln town car with air ride(boat handling) suspension, hopefully to once again be runited with my red headed lover
.
dont have too much fun while im gone, bye everybody!

hey still come on out to the NTEC picnic. We don't hate ;-)
I think all of us know you and want to keep you around Chad!
Terrible luck
Any thoughts as to why the bearing spun? Too much boost? Bad rebuilt by National?

no, national never touched the motor. it could be from the 3 hard jarring collisions in the accidents the car has been involved in, the 3rd i have no idea because i t was stolen that time. possibly over revving, or a bad bearing that mitsu instaled when the car was built. I also have rally driven this car, (ie: 6-7k rpm for long periods of time) track raced, everything you can possibly put your car through. i just didnt see it coming
BUT! kevins tune was not the reason. of course!
probably should've expected it though.
i might show up, but i have a hard time dealing with stress with school and paying for all this ****. i plan on sending the motor to buschur which will cost a pretty penny, which all leads up to me showing up and being depressed because i dont have my car to drive and have to deal with all that, plus see all the hapy evo owners and their cars that are driveable. I have some strange emotional attachment to the car. lol
I'm sure the other car guys that have had problems understand. ya know, the evo and the r34 are my dream cars, so i own one and am having troubles .
but all in all it will be ok, maybe ill be there we'll see
lol im drunk right now too. so let me know how this post turns out HAHAHA!

That sucks man!
The buschur blocks are rock soild, mike drove the every living crap out of my car, always TRACK racing, 620hp beast, and it is still going strong. You'll be happy. Also now you can do whatever you want to in mods and never worry about anything!

Sorry to hear that man. You always bounce right back from this stuff and end up coming out even better off than you were before. 
I know you will keep your head up and put this new motor in your car, probably upgrade your turbo as well. Then stomp the hell out of everyone with your "Lancer".

Hey Chad thanks for waking me up last night. I was expecting my gf to be texting me at that time of the night. What a let down. Anyways that sucks your motor let go. Were you in the middle of a run or just finished?
All while I was "enjoying the silence" too.
