I doubt I will make it to the up coming meet. There is a good chance that the Evo is going under the wrench again.

I saw them awhile ago downtown on Elmwood. Unless there's another one. I have no idea who it is. If I remember correctly, I spotted a military decal on the windshield though.

There is a very good chance that it will be getting a head job soon, with new cams!

Doesn't seem like the work on these cars ever ceases does it? I'm contemplating upgrading my cams as well...

I havent done anything major in awhile, plus this gives me a chance to look inside to see how the pistons are holding up.

I like my BC280's they perform well for what they are.

I have a feeling my timing belt slipped AGAIN, with my wrench my face looks like this . So I'm going to have to pull the freakin timing belt assembly off and do it again....I'm pretty sure its the tensioner. I'm pretty frustrated, can't quite figure it out.

No military sticker on this one, he did have some kind of performance license plate frame though, I forgot what it was, I was late for class.

Not a good idea. I tried that back 3 years ago when i had my v6 eclipse. Turned out ugly. since then, i bought 1 of those tools for $20, worth every penny, especially since i have done about 8 timing belts/head gaskets/cam swaps.

Yeah...I guess I should be investing in one. Got a few more things to check before I tear everything back up.
