what would we need either for? besides the fact that I think we might need to lift the engine to fit that turbo in >_<
the only think I can think of would be when we do my main pulley... but that doesn't even have to be done before the car is mobile.
you are talking about my car right?

I need to do a bit of drilling in the frame, and welding to repair some rust holes as well.

Well, it's up to you guys... but if you want easy access to my help, it'll need to be at my house because I'm going to be busy coding (porting msns-extra to ms2, then re-doing rotary bits there), and I won't have time to drive all over the place to help.
I'm close to having something I'm confident in at splits other than 0 split on msns-extra, I'm going to work on it more tomorrow night (since I'm moving the hachi tonight), and hopefully have it done this week. Everything I've done so far has worked, but only on the stimulator... using a CAS causes the number of interrupts on the CPU to jump by a huge amount, so basically I'm just trying to find ways to keep the number of interrupts from causing a problem.

I don't have time to fix it for you at this point, but I can test it again.

And the thread goes silent! :p
I got rear-ended today on the highway by a chevy truck. I was driving the GXL-SE. (Doh)
(Their fault)
The back end looked fine, like the inside styrofoam just got a little dented, and a plastic part broke off. Nothing major, I jsut got his info and told him not to worry about it unless a wheel fell off or something.
I met Brian yesterday! He's got two TIIs and two MX-6s. Apparently he's on the forum too.

Jason,
Be carefull on the accident. I had a similar thing happen to me and I got out of the car and was ok no problems. 1 day later no problems. 2 days later I couldn't even get out of bed. Those things work weird like that. Don't mess with your back because it will hurt forever.
