Being an only child helps a lot.

Now I need to get ordering my suspension and brake upgrades! Can't wait.

e manage or mega squirt look like great tools for the money. But the new LM-1 wideband tuner is worth every dollar. Plus driving around with your AFR's displayed infront of you might save a engine or 2.

Aren't wideband O2 sensors designed for limited use? I thought I read that somewhere but if not, more power to us, that'd be bitchin.

Heres a pic of the model it started out as the white inital d model i'm sure many of you have sen in the stores. Everything is painted inside and out where ever there was white there is now red. The color is off since i took the pic with a camera phone but it is the same red as my 86 base, might be called pure red?? i'm not sure but i think it looks pretty cool and as you can see it kinda resembles my avitar
