HI, I am Jason. I live in Reno, Nevada. I have a 93 FD and I am hoping to put her back together with info that I read on this club.
I bought the car from an auction about 10 years ago with known body damage to the rear bumper and quarter panel, but didn't know the turbos were going out and the engine had a bad coolant seal. Took the car to an import shop to get worked on and they managed to tear it apart, but then said it was too much of a project for them and returned the car...in pieces. I bought tons of parts to fix/upgrade everything, but then ran out of funds and then later interest. Life happens and now I'm ready to start on the project again

My engine was rebuilt with a large streetport by Pineapple Racing awhile ago. I got a lot of parts from Chuck of Rotary Extreme and was going to have him help me tune the car, but he's since left the country 
I have a PFC already and hopefully I'll be able to find somebody in the bay area for tuning.
The only progress I've made is getting the car into the garage
