Derrick, you know insurance doesn't work that way... you would've ended up in a Cavalier and your insurance agent would buy the FD.
Nah man, I wish. I had a red R1 back in 2001 but sold it shortly after purchasing to build another car, ive been tryign to get another one ever since. I got this one from oregon, its the LS1 FD in the for sale section on here. Sold my built RB25 240 to buy her.

Get him!

It looks like one clean FD... I like the 99 bumper. It's odd to see one look so JDM and have a V8 conversion... you'd never know from the outside.

Wow, that hurts. The Cheeto tried to take a leap of faith off of the lookout at the Dragon one time, luckily Brillo noticed it was moving. E-brakes are like politicians... not to be trusted.

haha, yeah.. I think someone high up is pissed at us.. I guess I'm going to have to start getting in the habit of leaving the car in gear.. It's just weird though.. it took the car two hours to decide to go on it's trip.. When you look at the tracks in the snow you can see just how closely fitting everything was.. if the tree was just a little bit straighter it would have missed the tree with the mirror and just bounced the tire off it.. it the car would had been fine.. How I kinda wish the landlord did cut the trees down when he was thinking about it..but then maybe the car would had taken out the propane grill or my other car.

BTW with the snow on the ground I can see just how dirty my car is.. especially the mess wheels.they look golden brown.. yuck.

I hope to hell i never have to suffer the E-brake death...the one in the T2 dont grab for ****, and the hill to my house is hella steep. If any of my cars would go for a trip....it would hit 25 in reverse and slam through my neighbors house cross the street >.> The NA's E-brake however grabs and stops total wheel movement ^.^ god i love non-ABS

I just got my e-brake working, and I no longer have to chock the tire in the drive. The e-brake has not been working for about 2 years. I also drove it as my dd for a year and a half with only front brakes. LOL That was some craziness. I recently got the back brakes working and it is amazing.
I ain't gona tell you all where I go to drift, but the secret is to jump around. Don't stay in one place mix it up.
When is the next Knoxville gathering? I need to meet ya ll and talk some rotary jive.

Aww I think I will be in Nashville. I will get the next one.

I need new seats the bars are poking out of mine. Does anyone have any good black seats for a smaller car? I can weld up some brackets to make them fit.
