As tempting as it sounds Guiedo, I'm just a brokeass son of a bich right now. Plus I have 2 240s already. But I've tried to talk 3 other people into buying it from you.

Well guys, i thought i'd just update everyone on how its going with me. I havent been on much and im sorry for that. I've been pretty busy lately. I was hired at Steve and Barry's since Nov 19th and have worked 2 Saturdays since then. I got a job at the same place my mom works which is an Animal Clinic. Im pretty excited. $7 an hour, few hours a day and then one Sunday's its time and a half. I've all started seeing a really amazing girl that has a great personality and is beautiful.

Well, along with good news there's always bad. My grandfather in Switzerland was rushed to the hospital for the 4th time since my grandmother died in March. My mom went over there and we're all thinking that he's just lasting until Christmas is over. Just thought i'd let everyone know, especially you James. Thanks man.

Pat

well, I paid for a S13 front left fender that I have not received yet and have not been able to get a hold of the seller, so I'm looking for that, plus I still need a metal ring that goes around the shifter. That's all the OEM stuff I need for my S14 and S13, I think. Aftermarket, jdm, and upgraded stuff is a different story altogether.

I've been talking to Brandon, and my cousin Jody concerning your hatch. Brandon could use just about everything on it to fix up his coupe, then we could get rid of the shell. Or Jody could actually fix it and get an SR to put in it (didn't you say you had an SR for sale?)

btw, does it have manual or power windows and does it actually have door panels?

I think Brandon's coupe out back still has all the stuff for power windows. We were wanting to put manual windows in it anyway.

That car is mostly in pieces, so you'd have to tell me exactly everything you'd need.

Pat you have my deepest sympathies, and I pray that all goes well for you and your grandpa.

Hey peeps, wuz up I'm just checking in to say hi. Not too much to report on, everything is everything. rps13srsc, it sounds like you've got a pretty good start there. Do you have any upgrade plans for the future?

...Sorry everyone, I was gonna do a decent post, but I just got in from my company's Christmas party and I'm beat. I'll holla later.

hey guys, I tried to straighten out the front end on my hatch today, and I can't get shiit to line up. The hood is about an inch off to the left and won't latch, the left headlight bucket won't even bolt on. I tried my ultra-ghetto methods of bodywork (hooking one end of tow strap to core support, the other end to pathfinder and pulling, or beating it with a sledgehammer) but it hasn't been effective. The headlights do raise and lower with the switch though, so that's a plus.

Well you can always tear it apart and start all over again to see if you can retrace your steps and perhaps find the error.

If you still have it after christmas, I may buy it from you. My suggestion, take gr8bryt's suggestion, then use fuel injector cleaner in the gas tank to get rid of any floaters, then if that doesn't help (drive the car around some to let everything settle, sometimes that improves things in itself). Then if no improvement, ask the guys on the mechanics board.

I just did a search trying to figure out what would make a car not run past 3000 rpm and I came up with "CLean Airflow Meter". Not sure what or where the airflow meter is, but it worked for the guy who asked the question.
