^--- yeah right. last....I still have people randomly calling me up, "hey need an S14?"

I started to HATE my auto. I have over 100hp, let me have it you slow bastard.

In a completely unrelated note, I am looking for a 5spd swap.

90's is cold for us lately lol. Already hit 107 last week which is how hot is supposed to be in Aug/Sept... No AC in either rides. Come on down to the Texas Heat Wave.... literally.. :biggrin:

Oh and I looked at her and promised she will be running right after head work. Hopefully she gives the same promise back lol.

I'll send some humidity to you then. We will be at 97 Saturday. Have to do an oil change and that will have to be done early, the garage even gets to hot after 2pm.

There is a reason my DD and Vert still have AC, though I don't drive the Vert without the top down.

I looked on the web for all the stuff I want to do with my interior and exterior and realized that I just need to quit it and put together a 5-spd swap. FML

By getting loans and putting themselves in debt, I'll bet. For the most part, anyway.

Today I:
Removed headliner.
Removed and dissembled sunroof.
Bought a replacement track for said sunroof.

Tomorrow I'll:
Clean / seal sunroof parts.
Get everything organized while I wait for a track.
Also tape off my sunroof so I don't get rained on in the meantime.
