:cry:

Andrew.

What happened?

nothing, becomes a trailer queen.

Andrew.

so… does that mean your keeping those rims and I can’t snag them off you?

I’ll never sell those wheels :stuck_out_tongue:
You can have the bent dishes after I send them out for new dishes.

Andrew.

Oh shit it’s caged. :noes:

nice cage… Is it Cusco by chance?

nope thats all custom built.

GT

Yeah custom built cage by yours truly.

Gonad I’ll eat you any day of the week :lol:
Them fighting words. hehe

I’m running her at Dunnville this Sunday and possibly tow her to Mosport in October and thats all for this season.

Car has been good to me this year, I’ve done 7 track days since May. Gotta love stock SOHC’s with well over 265k km on them.

I learned the hard way last year. This past winter I droped my money into chassis, suspension, seat and tires. Most fun I’ve had in a while. Power = waste of money.

Andrew.

Careful there. My car is done to tits with susp. and brakes (minus cage, tires, wheels, :frowning: ).
If I wasn’t plagued with stupid problems all year, I would have come out.

Next year for sure. :dunno:

I see some body roll. What do you have in terms of coils or sways?

Stance coilovers, sway bars are stock at the moment.
Yeah I was pushing hard in that picture.

I have to do sway bars and all my links this winter.

Yeah dude, you have to get that baby out to the track. Its been too long :frowning:

Andrew.

I remember in 2004 after I had my coils/bushings/sways done I went to
Shannonville and whole day I spent chasing Phil (and a turbo Eclipse).

So much fun. And now, last two years, such a pain. I’ve only done one
thing and thats visit Cayuga, at which I ran horrible time (and blew a
turbo before I went).

Karma’s a bitch. :frowning:

There’s always next year :dunno:

Needs to be lower :lol:

Agreed!

I gotta get adjustable links and fix my exhaust so I don’t drag it everywhere :lol:

Then she shall be zlamed

Andrew.

wow that cage is beautiful. Want to make another one?..

Good luck with going full track its awesome.

So I parked the car last Saturday :frowning:

After an awfull track outing 2 weeks ago I screwed up the motor, tranny and my exhaust. I don’t think my worst off of the season helped too much. Slicks don’t seem to give warning when they loose grip :lol:

I have a bunch of plans for her this winter though:

  • finish repairing what rust there is left
  • fabricate sidebars for cage
  • full multi-link (rear and front)
  • new inner and outer tie rods
  • Install the aluminum subframe bushings I’ve had collecting dust
  • out comes the SOHC and in goes the DOHC
  • lower the car more :slight_smile:
  • new steering wheel
  • have wheels refinished, they are getting rough
  • set of new toyo RA-1’s
  • have a new exhaust fabricated by Ian
  • sway bars
  • and I’ve been toying with the idea of dumping money into a Kaaz 1.5, my VLSD is spinning one wheel on corner exits now.

I’ll update with more pictures on the weekend, I cut half of the passenger side rocker.

Andrew.

why refinish the rims when you can give them to me for free?

Werd… yo I need the hoist, the TT’s motor is puking out oil like nobody’s bidness, lol.

Put up the damn pics! Haha, and put up my pics too, we all know I’m too lazy/irresponsible to bring a camera up to the shop.

Werd,

when I grab the motor from you I’ll bring the hoist. Its sitting in waynes garage. Probably within the next couple weeks. Seen?

You sure you don’t have my old KA in the TT? :lol:

Andrew.
