15 grand for parts from japan and you’ll have a 10 second car
Rebuilt overnight
with the intensity of the heat from the fire, i wouldnt trust much dealing with the engine. the composition of the metal is different now, and will be much weaker, possibly warped from the high heat then the water hitting it… sucks man, but like its been said, atleast no one was physically injured
I’m glad to see you joking about it, cause thats what you need to do. It’s the best way to get over it. My incident didn’t have as harsh of an outcome, but when my steering wheel came off if i didn’t react as quickly as i did, Murray and I would of probably died that afternoon, within 15 minutes I was making fun of the situation, cause its the only thing to do at times like this.
:+1 gotta make the best of a bad situation.
im looking to find a 92-95 civic hatch… ive had dreams of a certain setup for one since before i owned my focus… now without the 600/month car payment i should be able to make that a reality.
buy mikes coupe, already has a cage in it.
I thought that was sold, not sure?
not that i know of
coupe still sits out back of synapse…
Perhaps I’m thinking of another one of Mike’s vehicles :lol
so the car was fully covered?
Travis, whats your plans with the car? Do you want the car to go fast in a straight line? Or do you want the car to go fast around corners? Gotta know, there’s good deals all over the place.
both… t60-1 @ 12psi on a b16 or b18 on 93 pump… with a decent suspension… on 215/40/16 falken azenis rt615’s… yadda yadda…
My friend has a b16long block for sale. High miles, but can always use an OEM rebuild. Ksports on HT are selling for 670 shipped right now. Lots of good deals around man. LMK if you need a hand.
