a years wait and she finally started!!! im the happiest man in the world right now. im doing an oil change tomorrow with mobil 1 synthetic and fixing my busted brake caliper then taking her for a test drive! i havent driven this car in over a year and when it started up today, tears came to my eyes. this is the begginning of something big in my life! i fele on top of the world right now, + $8000 in the hole!

went from a busted sr20 blacktop with a bigger turbo that cost me $5000 to buying a $1900 stock sr20 blacktop. the wait is over....she is finally here!!!

Niiiiiiiice. Just make sure you take extra good care of the beast. Sounds like you put a lot of time, energy, and money into it!

haha thanks guys, this is an amazing feeling. i wonder what its gonna feel liek behind the wheel for the first time....

few things i need to fix, need to find a vacuum cuz the BOV isnt working, brake caliper, windshield, paint job, and a bunch of other sh*t. have to sell my old turbo though :-/ but then again, this is wayy better than not having any car at all!
