Guys, weight savings??? Cut some of your frame and allow rust to begin, you'll notice the performance increase everytime you get on it, and more chunks fall off.

Joel you're going to need A LOT more than wheels and tires to fix that rear end.

No, the sloppy rear end. Your whole subframe shifts when you hit the gas. It's pretty bad.

I know man....s***s annoying, after driving Keegans, I hate everything about my oem sunken battleship. I just dont have the cash flow to fix it right. I should do risers, and get the welded in, and see what it does, but I'm sure because the whole left rear of the car is 1/2 way gone, it has alot to do with it.

For the record, people love it when you carry your steering wheel into convenience stores and leave your car running.

Z_K, looks great man Definitely function over form. In fact so function over form I'd call it Function > Function yea that's right.

Nice coil pack setup, you can use a timing light easier now lol.

GTFO with that EVAP canister!

doug, mine arms are proportional to my 6ft tall body. Won't be a prob with stock seats.

I thought the same thing. You might be fine with the stock seat, though.

Z_K, I was JUST thinking about where the hell you were yesterday LOL.

Does anyone in the lancaster area want a pair of s13 stock seats. They are in really good condition for their age, and don't have any tears or rips.

Hey Lancaster crew!
To make a long post short, I am suffering from that little sticker on all of our windshields that needs to be updated every year.
I would just go get a real inspection, but i am in no condition to spend the money for it to legally pass. but it runs great, and like many of us here, we know how to keep our 240's running without necessarily passing inspection.
so if there is anybody in lancaster here than can help me out with this, i would really appreciate it and you would be well rewarded with copious amounts of my home-made blackberry wine for free! :gapteeth:
or of course, a reasonable cash sum.

Plus, It pained me to see this thread died again.

im the guy that hempfield township police have deemed to have the only unsafe vehicle in lancaster i guess.
im hurtin here guys. ive been pulled over twice now and you know how quick police get to know you when you have a 240. not to mention i do a decent amount of driving and during my last police encounter he ripped my expired inspection sticker of my windshield....
so im driving every day without one.
