you have my dream car. ever since i was little I've wanted a FD. now that im older i just want a gutted one for my weekend warrior(even though im lying and i would never drive anything else). lol. i remember the first one i ever saw was in eugene. it was black. i was about 13 or 14 at the time :p

on a side note i did a oil change yayyyyyy. happy 7 is happy. think i have a borderline fouled plug or two. lately its not doing so well on hot / warm starts. flooding a bit. not firing up after the usual 1.5 cranks. could be the second gen plugs, too. i just started running them. time to change! always starts like normal when its cold, though.....

i have tires, come get them lol.

I put stainless steel sponges in my fart cannon today. two things came of this:

my exhaust is very much quiet now, which is good.

turns out my transmission is whining a lot more than i though, which is bad.

..............I need a trans.

i could do it pretty quick also, it's just finding the time and a good trans. there was someone selling some somewhere in WA for pretty cheap, i wonder if I can find the thread....think he had 3 or 4 at 50 dollars each. lol
