Hey man, it's Jimi... congrats on getting the car. I'm glad that thing stayed in the local "family" so to speak. I sold my Supra so I have a little cash now so maybe we can run 129 soon.

thanks for the welcome...I am really enjoying it right now... minus the window motor which I think just died in the DOWN position... and guess what its got to rain too! blah. Maybe I can get my car back soon so I can put some work to fix this up just a bit more than it is now. Just tweaks really.

Oh damn, that's not a good thing to have happen today. If you're not getting any clicking or noise whatsoever from the motor when you hit the switch, then the switch is the problem.

Excellent news. Did you have the EVO completely repainted?

Anyone up for a meet next weekend? It could be a pre-Halloween rotary bash.
