He's in Minnesota and if it's anything like Utah, you can do basically anything you want to do to your engine

its called 'connection"

Jago · 08-27-02, 09:34 AM

Congrats Soltaker!!

Soltaker · 08-27-02, 02:50 PM

Wow....thanks for all the love gang

It is really cool to get props like this. It makes all of the hard woork and $$ worthwhile

Ok I'll stop. I'm getting weepy

About the JDM issue. I got the engine a few years back from a guy in Cali. Up here in Minnesota, we have always had lax smog tests. Once our clown Gov got elected, he stopped smog testing altogether. I'm sure if I were to get stopped and inspected, I would get into trouble. But because we have no testing...no worries!

I still have some plans for her. For a while, I was going to try to sell it. Unless I get a really good offer, I think I'll keep it for a while. That being said, the white interior will be on it's way out. I like it and it looks decent, but it is impossible to keep clean. I am not a big fan of it, but I may head in the tweed direction. It is different than stock, but should be a lot easier to keep clean. Also, I am in the process of redoing the stereo system. (which is why there are no system pics

) It will have some new goodies I am sure you will all enjoy.

As always, any questions, give me a shout!

juiceweazel · 08-27-02, 03:36 PM

here's a question soltaker, how did the bodykit fit? mine is fitting like crap!? on the side moldings where the indent is in the back is too deep. the company told me i would have to dent my rear quarters to get it to fit 100%! now when i bought this they told me it was just bolt on, 100% fitment! did u have to dent yours in? that's what's holding me up on getting the thing on along w/ the custom shaving u have to do.

b.t.w. SWEET RIDE! i'd like to wax her w/ pamela lee's butt...lol.

juiceweazel · 08-27-02, 03:39 PM

p.s. where did u get those tails anyway? LOVE'EM!!! they're 1 of only 3 in the us or world?
thanx!

me too.

I didn't like it then, and I don't now. I respect the speed...but I hate the kit and the interior.
