Hey all, I have been on the boards for about two years now and have never gotten around to creating a journal but I think now is the time since the car should be getting a good overhaul this summer.

I'll start off with some pics of the car and it in its current state and then show what it has gone through since I've owned it...

Here is how it looked on Saturday:


^^It came off of the tow truck because this happened:





A long time ago, I also had a Perrin 30R setup on the car but never ended up getting it tuned and I then eventually sold it to Muskatomas101. The setup contained a .82 A/R hotside, Perrin fmic with blow-thru, PE 850's, TiAL 50mm bov, custom dp, and a GReddy Evo2 catback.

Here are some pics:

Thank you

Finally you have a journal! I hope the repairs aren't too costly.

Haha, yeah finally.

About the repairs, it'll probably add up pretty quickly as I think I am going to change a bunch of stuff while it is down. I already spent $500 on the BC stuff...that should be here tomorrow

[importfanatic17]

I am pretty sure that is supposed to be from "Brian Crower" to "Alex Maney" instead of "Brian Power" to "Alex Manley"

Either way, I missed the man in brown and now I have to wait until Monday ...chances are I won't be home then either

when you get one of those missed delivery notices call the 800 number on the note and ask to have a redelivery attempt made later that day or to meet the driver somewhere on route (hopefully within biking distance ). They will put in the request and shortly thereafter you will get a call from the local UPS office who has just contacted the driver and will be able to tell you what the options are.

The biking comment made me both laugh and cry, JERK!!

I see you got that oil setup, when is that coming in? Mind giving me some links to see all the new gadgetry?
