    Wish we had snow like that here in sc!

    I've been cleaning the interior out of the rx7 figuring out what I need replacements for. Want to have a super clean black interior gonna be dying the dash and a few other parts some I will just buy off rx7club Tho.
    Also got most the harness labeled in preparation for pulling the engine. Trying to do everything I can while waiting on my buddy to drive from NC to help and bring his hoist. Also disconnected Ac lines and such.
    Got a few goodies in I'll have to get some pics of.
    Still saving up for 10/8 kg PBM coilovers
    And some extended knuckles.

  3. any specific reason for coil over bag? i just dont really see many people running something like that. Tonight amongst some other things i put my rear coils in and some other things. Got a bilstein pss9 kit, vorshlag camber plates, and some ground control rsm's so its now completely on. Also mounted up my powersteering pump, alternator, and made a little bracket to move my shift lever. tomorrow i think i ll put my lsd in.
     
  4. My bad scroll down and you will see the regular 8/10 kg coils.
     
  5. Been working some crazy hours the last month so I bought a family cruiser. 1983 Holden station wagon, It's only a 3.3l(202ci) straight six which I think is the same as chevy 250ci straight six, Trimatic auto and is slow as hell even with a recent head rebuild with bigger inlet/exh valves. I'll be looking for a dead 5l v8 in the near future to slowly build.

  8. ImageUploadedByGrasscity Forum1455486506.369595.jpg missing the snow. Only got 2 or 3 true powderings so far this year. Haha wanted a lil more to put the awd thru my first winter in her. Oh well summer drives are just as fun.
     
  9. Guys, what car is better: Toyota or Chevrole? I'm hezitating
     
  10. out of those i v only heard of toyota, really solid cars though, definitely have that reliability thing figured out.
     
  11. Depends on the models bro. Allthough ive always had decent luck with my chevys.
     
  12. New Chevys are just as good as any car.
    But if we are talking old Gm I'd say Toyota all day.
    But like dude said^ depends on model and what you want Ina car.
     
  13. guess im the only dick who didnt overlook the chevrolet misspelling.....anyways as they all said models are important, if you want an econobox youre probably better off with the toyota but i would get a sierra over a tundra anyday. I may be biased though, i have a gmc and my whole family/business do gmc for trucks.

    going to look at a 325iX sedan to perhaps swap my s52 into (if i can use e46 325xi oilpan).


    even if it doesn't get the s52, it's still a classic bmw to drive (and would be my first low production e30).


    edit - i'll throw in a picture of it:

  18. Lol yeah I've seen it. Love how it pisses off the muscle guys. Probably not the fastest nova in the world but I'd give it a 100 in troll factor. Lol

  19. Oh yeah. I feel like thats just enough revenge for all the 13bs scrapped in favor of a 350.
