overload of bandwidth fail. Pics don’t show.

So, I don’t feel like reading through the thread if there’s not pics, but… What are your plans for this?

all of the pics are still working, nothing wrong with my photobucket I assure you…its grandfathered in to almost unlimited storage/bandwidth from back when pbucket was starting up.

I just painted all of my suspension stuff. If it was 40\* and sunny, or I had a heated, roomy garage, I would be assembling the rear subframe to swap today.

Alas, it is not.

I hit each one with a little spray paint to make sure it doesnt rust while it waits for me to do more :rofl

Also took off the 318’s exhaust.

17 years old:

i beat the piss out of the poor thing, same thing that is going to happen to this one.

theyre reasonably strong boxes, but old at this point, and no one rebuilds them. no one.

no exceptions.

2nd and 3rd gear would grind on any up or downshift not double clutched.

shit was not cash.
