Razi, that is my all time favorite s13 color. I think my car will EVENTUALLY go back to it.

I need to thank my awesome girlfriend for being patient on the side of the road and being amazing; and my buddy Staples for driving us up there in his G.

Nice buy.....I find that tint is more of a requirement in my part of the planet.... so I will have to respectfully disagree on the tint removal.......

I also hope Michelle got the sex she needed.... if not, it's time for you to rock out with your c*** out ryan.....

Its telling you it wants bricks. Really though nice S13. The wheels look sexy and i like the color. Trunk also looks sweet without keyhole and emblems.

Clean up the wiring, get my gauges working, straighten the bumper and intercooler. Then later down the road add power, seats, paint, maybe brick headlights. Who knows.

Not yet. I have to run to the store and grab some fluid, look up how much it takes and how to do it.

No, just wasn't sure if I should try to hassle with the fill plug or go in through the shifter.

Unless you have a filler pump w/ hook, go the shifter route.

I hardly think that reverse popping out has anything to do with the oil. But I could be wrong, I guess... I'd think more about a missing or damaged tooth.

Definitely go through the top where the shifter is. Removing the shifter is simple. The snap ring is a little tough without snap ring pliers, but it's really no big deal. Just poor the oil in slowly.

LOL! I will not own a car that is not tinted. Tint blocks UV to keep interior looking new. Tint blocks high beams from cars behind you. Metallized or ceramic tint blocks heat to keep car cooler in summer. Tint makes it more difficult for losers to look in your car and see what is in it. Tint makes broken windows way easier to clean up. Tint puts a layer of film in between you and the glass in the event of an accident. High quality tint rocks.
