okiely dokely and that was 700 private sales. so if this was say a 70k miles engine he bought, then 600 from whatever junkyard isnt too bad considering its a business price. Hell how much did XAT sell KAs for? i mean shit joe we all know TR is lowball city.

Finally ordered new subframe bushings. So no more clunk clunk when I shift or go over large bumps. Finally getting around to fixing some little annoying things this week to. Hopefully the car will be less aggervating to drive.

Also I passed the wear bars on my falkens so my rear tires are fucked. GHey

Wondered why my clutch went straight to the floor...

Got up and under the dash... might as well be a squirtgun when I hit the clutch.
New master cylinder saps from my coilover fund.

if your coilover fund was low enough that a 30$ master cylinder puts a dent in it, it was a pretty shitty fund anyway.

i didnt do shit to my car, and havent in a while. nothing breaks, everything maintains, and no problems. bought a civic today though. neat.
