The motor is already out right?

that sucks zach
alex (the guy with the very clean s14, purple) had it parked by mcv. 10ft of water covered the car. he drove down to florida to get that car and that **** happens. ill post pictures when i get back in town. or if you want they are over on the lookoutdrift.com forum, in the picture/video section. its a very sad sight to see his car like that
im wondering how my car did. i left it at work. it should be fine as it was at the higher up part of the parking lot, but who knows. i hope its fine because its not like insurance is goign to give me anything for it if something happened.

Jesus, if the GTU was finished I'd say I'll take it, but it's gonna be another month or so.
Damnit, timing is everything.
Anyway, check out the new intake manifold. It's gonna look pretty slick.

hey guys my FD is having gay electrical problems and i need to get it towed somewhere. my EGI fuse keeps blowing on me every time i turn the key to the on position which means there is a short in the wiring somewhere, i just cant find it. ive gone through about 20 fuses already. I got it so it didnt blow on me once (dont ask me what i did to fix it cause i dont know) and as i was driving it went out on me again. where should i get it towed to to work on it cause this is pissing me off.
thanks,
Craig
thanks,
Craig

Hey Mike, don't buy that S14. You remember how much fun you had driving my car?

That's probably the smart thing to do. Flood damage sucks.
I pulled the dash from the GTU today. I'm surprised how easy it was, with a little help from the archives.

my car is up for sale. i found a really good deal on a 240 and i want to pick it up. yall know whats up with my car. 1700. i JUST put new hawk hps pads on it yesterday as well as an oil change. the car will come with 2 extra sets of rims, spare tranny, spare clutch/pp, everything on the car minus the cd player.
if you forgot, its going tokico blues, eibach springs, and suspension tech sway bars. racing beat header, 2.25in exhaust going into a stock 'over axle,back' muffler. i have the muffler that was on the car that will come with it as well. tires are less than 3 months old, but have seen a few autox's.
im on my way to rolling over 162k on it, but the car is strong as hell. she hasnt failed me yet and i dont expect it to.
anyone interested?
edit: also theres a gsl rear end in it, lsd, 4 wheel disks.
