So, in the f/s I was talking about getting a Rampage. Well, it turns out for one of those not to be a total POS it will be over $1000. They are a dying breed and very rare in decent shape. Also, none of them car EFI or Turbo factory. So I am thinking about trading my 89 Spirit...for this....









And the best part...



It is in PA and the fellow explained what kind of car he would want in a trade....exactly my Spirit. He wanted a T1 Automatic 4-dr...PLAIN! His 90 Caravan has a new headgasket and tires and the only downsides are:

1. Oil leaks from old turbo lines and oil pan
2. "Knock" transmission related (?)
3. rust on wheel lip (common)
4. Front brakes ($20 at A/Z)
5. Headliner is gone
6. A/C works but had leak...needs recharge. I would tell him strait trade for my car and he would have to come to me. He wanted $600 outright I was asking $900 hoping for $700

So....what ya think?!

Hey guys. Obviously no one here has a MR2 but if you know someone who does, let folks know. Here' my ad from the MR2 Forum:

Quote:Hi everyone. My MK2 is now officially a track car so I won't be needing my black leather seats and storage box. I'm looking for 250 for the seats. 40 for the box. Who ever buys the seats for the asking price, I'll throw in the box. How's that sound? I'm in Centreville, VA 20121. I'll snap some pics for interested parties. The drive seat has the typical wear on the outside bolster and there's small tear at the seam. The passenger seat is in great shape. No rips/tears nor noticeable wear. The box is also in great shape. I thought I'd post in the regional forum as I'd prefer not to ship. Thanks for checking out my post.

This is one of the better flash games I've seen. All this talk of Sony sucking, but this warms my heart:

CLICKY!!

Looks European alright. And after my little vacation there, I'd say the smaller the better!

Word has been out on the MS3 for a while now, however, I didn't think it would actually be this good...

Scan of article from Car and Driver and SCC

Obviously SCC isn't exactly the greatest source for high quality car reviews, however, the car does seem very enticing

Nothing serious of course. Riding to subway, had my visor up like I normally do in hot weather. I was wearing my oaklies, which I thought would protect my eyes. Something made its way around them and into my eye. I tried to get it out at a stop light but couldnt. I was almost there so I just rode the rest of the way and then tried to get it out there, but I still couldnt. I got my sub and went back home. Tried for like 30 minutes to get it out (flushed it with water, sprayed water in my eye with that attatchment on kitchen sinks, nothing worked). I went to a group meeting hoping it would work its way out, but no luck. I could see it sitting in my iris. About 10 or 15 years ago I got something stuck in my eye and couldnt get it out. I had to go to the ER so this time around I pretty much knew thats what I was gonna have to do.

I bummed a ride to the hospital, and after about 3 hours of waiting got it taken care of. They gave me Lortab for the "pain". I asked if I really needed it, and they said it may not hurt now, but when you try to sleep it will really bother you. Even though whatever was in there is out now, I can still feel the abbrasion on my eye when I blink. Anyways, always ride with your visor down, even if your wearing sunglasses.

When I need an OEM or similar part for my XR4ti, I get within an inch of my sanity before I find it or I just give up and make my own.

On the flip side, I do an eBay search for "E36" and I get 3305 results. That's like, 100+ pages. Wow, what a strange, new, wonderful world this is!!!

Just wanted to share.

Hey guys,

There's been some scattered conversations/posts about Alumni/Current Student relations.

How about every contributes their thoughts/concerns in this thread and see if we can't all resolve some of the points of contention.

Personally, I would enjoy meeting some of the new members as well as some of the orginal members that I don't know so well. I think I can see some of the frustration of members who feel like the Alums aren't as welcoming at track events while alums feel like they're being pushed out of the club that they care deeply about. Since I know that neither perspective is true, lets try to work out some of the misunderstandings.

The car is a bronzit 1989 2dr 5 speed 325is. It has a built Metric Mechanic 2.9 liter m20 in it with around 70k miles. The car itself has 214k.

At 3500 dollars its hard to say no to this one.
