Well, today was the worst day yet in my car. This morning i was on my way to school and it was raining pretty hard. i turned on to a major intersection and lost control and spun around and into the bushes at my local Eckerds. I blew my clutch, front supsension, broke my antenna, broke my muffler, peeled up the old spoiler more than it already was, and got a new battle scar in Roxy's driver's side door (Roxanne is my cars name). i also have a lot of crap from the bushes in various places. oh well, i put a nice big frowny face on the windshield so everyone car see shes hurt. :( oh well, there goes all the money i had saved up ready to put into her, good thing i didnt have the new drift wing on her, would have ripped in right off.

Oh and i forgot to mention that my mom or dad took out my insurance card and nver put it back in. i know the cop didnt like that.

Dude do what I did when that deer hit me. Look around at your local shops to see if they may have a 240 sitting around. It would have cost me over $900 for all the parts i needed but I found an 89 Coupe that had timing chian trouble and the guy never came backfor it. $350 later it was mine. I ended up needing the block and crank for my motor. Try to find a whole car, that way you will have other parts that you may need in time.

I was thinking about going with Tokicos, but stay with the springs as i cant afford them together.

I meant buying Eibachs or something similar and the struts together.

On the subject of car problems, I found out theat the dumb@$$ that had the car before me but on tires that were too big, and they were wearing against the front shocks, so I had to buy new tires, and the old ones had less than 100 miles on them. But I guess it works out, because now I get more than 3 1/2 MPG.
