Anybody want a FJ20E engine from a DR30 that runs?

http://club-s12.org/retro4/index.php?PH ... ic=35090.0

A mere $1300 and it could be yours!

Is that the famed FJ series of engines that can chew up valves and spit them out without damage to the pistons or cylinders?

I can't see your pic, but good morning Ben.

I upped the psi to 6lbs and retuned last night. A pound makes quite the difference. While taking a friend for a cruise last night (to convince him he needed a Miata) I kinda accidently raced a (guessing 2010, or 2011) WRX and won. He gave me this "how the f***" look and two thumbs up. Love this car, more smiles per mile than ever before.

Get your butt on the project. Winter is going to be here before you know it and you won't be able to drive it with snow on the ground!

Not sure why I love this song so much, but it needs to be posted continuously.

Evening folks. What's everyone up to?

I I'm getting settled into my new apartment. I am SO SICK OF MOVING. I moved my sister and her husband into their new condo on Friday, then yesterday I packed all my stuff into a U-haul, drove 240 miles, and unpacked it all in the same day. I HATE MOVING.

I spent the last couple of hours putting together cheap walmart furniture. Had to buy a new desk, and grabbed a TV stand (one with a flat-panel mount to maximize shelf space) and a new desk chair.

I still have boxes everywhere. And since I've been on the road for the last month before moving I have DAYS of laundry ahead of me. YAY!

But I'm going to let most of the boxes and the laundry wait. Today I need to play some Borderlands 2 and relax.

I desperately need to find a new ISP here. I get free internet with rent, but it's slower than a dead guy driving a buick. Seems like the best option up here is 50/5 with an effing 100GB/month cap. Who the @#$% caps wired internet?!?!?!!? I could use 100GB in a day for s***'s sake.

Yeah, one of those "started off wrong and got worse" things. There's no winning. I'm glad today is over. I intend to make tomorrow not suck.

I'd just like to be able to keep a job for longer than a few months here... It seems every employer I run into wants somebody to tirelessly provide perfect service 10 hours a day 6 days a week while only asking for 8/5. The contracting I am getting now is generally 10-12 hour days, but at least I know what to expect.

I really would like to find something that isn't soul crushing or full of nonsense.
