Default Another SR Owner to the Rescue

So I escaped Tampa on Thursday heading down I-4. The rubber backing on my FLX-210 fell into the fan and stopped it from functioning. I never knew until I hit traffic and then the car started to overheat.

I keep a vigilant eye on my gauges so I immediately engaged the heater core w/ full heat vent and pulled over.

5 minutes later, a maxima pulls over and a kid named Miles sees if I need help. Never even met the kid before. Granted, I didn't need the help but it's always cool to have fellow S14 owners pull over willing to help out.

(Garage Battle asked to help me in the pouring rain once. I lost my MAF for obvious reasons and there was nothing we could do. Another cool S14 owner, thanks!)

Looking out for one another, we're a small community,

Jesse

Miles has a wife...? I just swapped his alternator last night...that was a little harder than I thought due to difference in belts and pulleys. Havent talked to him yet, but I hope it works out. Its cool to have local people willing to help out without trying to make money. Just doing it for the sake of helping out.

This Miles had his SR/5spd swap completed at Secret Services. He was driving his wife's Maxima. They live in Orlando. My wife was in our Maxima spectating/cursing as I fixed the fans...
