jeez, yez can't get away with anything on de intArweb! that is indeed LDR's dear departed Tulip 1, now being run by Planet Motorsports out of Toronto. The rallyX was a shakedown for Galway Cavendish forest Rally on Aug 9. she will still be running the 2.5 NA (not to mention the smooshed hood...

hah! that's my point exactly. diff between the 2 is less about absolute performance, but MUCH more daily livability and long-term expectations that the thing will continue working once you've used up the payment book. OK so evo x has a few more bells n whistles that let unskilled drivers get...

STI no question. Evo is sexay, but Mitsu's long-term reliability record, expecially in transmissions, would scare me off of actual ownership. my problem is that STI would = no license in approx 4 days

you guyz are hOOligans, ruining all that perfectly good grass. :angry4: don't hit the beeg hay bales, they will wad your wagon up like tinfoil. :angel12:

spend time with loved ones, friends n family NOW, not later. situations like this are why it's so important. best of luck, sounds like your mom could use some.

OK, I give up! :pottytrain2: :angel12: my fave local vanity plate belongs to my dog's groomer. she's in her mid 40s & quite foxy, and the plates on her silver 350Z say...Z YAH online may be best way to get iffy combos. in person, the agents look things over pretty carefully. I wanted to...

evosuck and onall4s would probly not pass DMV straight-face test. individual DMV agents have latitude to accept or deny words and their associations and most of them go straight for the gutter meanings of things...you MIGHT get onall4s, but def not evosuck

sorry about the car at least he gets a good pile of firewood out of the mess. :idea1:

hmmm...motorsports test facility in back yard...nice! one safety note: side window needs to be rolled up, no more than 1" open. this is std procedure for rally/rallyx, it keeps rocks and debris from coming in windows when you're flying sideways (dirt clods can pack a punch, even when you're...

so what (besides srvc mgr sporting a vette and not being a suby dood) ticked you off specifically? what was the service/work issue involved. when a dealer gets bought out in corporate shuffling, some good service service guys get pooshed out, other good guys somehow hang onto their jobs. the...

so that sounds like one of those "just drive it til it sounds really worse" kind of things. Might be 10k miles , who knows?

yowtch! that's an unusual failure...you haven't subjected your car to "enthusiastic driving" have you?! :angel12: That abuse voids ALL warranty.guarantee. stuff ya know. Rad and I pulled clutch MC and brake MC from his donor RS tonite....if'n perchance ya still need those particular bits.

just be double triple quattro sure when you put the new hg's in, that ALL the oil galleries line up. if not, when you start up your freshly rebuilt motor, there will be massive oil leaks. don't ax how I learnt this. :angry4: basically, the passenger side hg's are very directional...there's a...

STM needs more wagoon pilotes not afraid of dirt spankage. welcome, be careful what you wish for around here...you'll get shanghaied by a rally team or somethin.

have had the hatch on g/f's foz stick shut a few times. seems less of a latch plobrem and more of a "too much female crapola in the back, getting stuck in the hatch" kind of thing... :angel12:

counterbalances added to rear diff carrier? hmmm, we removied something that sounds suspiciously similar form the diff subframe of our GC series rally cars...little weights that were surprisingly heavy. will have to peek at the WRX and see if those counterweights are present or not. pricey you...

what are those parts supposed to do? is this a SoA approved solution, covered in a TSB or something?

if pooched HG allows extensive mixing of coolant with engine oil and is run for a while this way, bearing replacement is advised. otherwise, you pull the motor, take care and lavish on loving attention like Pedro mentions above....and then FARK!!! (^*&*%&$^&$^#@@!!! you spin a...

two things ya can count on in this world... #1, Entropy always wins (aka, if it CAN break, it will, eventually) #2, Friends are the only (if temporary) antidote to #1 above. Hang in there, things are fixable. Actually, um, if there was substantial mixing of coolant with the engine oil, this...

this doesn't have anything to to with clothing, but it's similar I got a new gearbox for the rally car, so excited to get it in...took off for a quick test drive...shifted great, nice close ratios, but... sheesh, it's kinda LOUD, innit? so back to the shop we went. huh, for some reason it was...
