[kumalaba]

right now i'm running the stock steelie 12" ......after seeing the video of tweak in the dessert i really want some of those OZ rims but the 12" will have to suffice for now

Keep an eye on craigslist for mitsubishi lancer wheels. I've seen complete sets for $100! The 185/45/15 tires are a bit pricey because they are not sold here in the U.S. I bought mine through an ebay seller in Nevada, who drop shipped them from Germany. It would be nice to get a group buy going with a tire importer to get them at a good price (they are actually dirt cheap over seas).

Merry Christmas to you all!

195/45 isn't as hard to find. 195/50 is cheap and plentiful. What's so special about 185/45?

Not today, but several days ago, I spun out and wrecked my 93. It's bittersweet, because there was a gods deal of work needed to make it right, but it's value really lay in the parts, such as the 5MT, pedal box, Aspire parts, and all of the glass, plus newish tires.

Working on replacing lateral arms this week n my bro got a head start on it... the Square nut in the unibody rail is spinning... any suggestions if so drop me a line on my thread. I gotta talk to my neighbor if he has a trick, he works on cars all the time. plus I need to work on my oil in the intake tube issue which I did some searching and need to inspect for blow by I think that is a given, plus my pcv valve and hope for the best.

Drill a small hole next to the nut on either side and fill it with weld.

Finally gave Green Car her Christmas present this morning, installed the 2 new tires and balanced all of them and rotated front to back so the news are on the rear. She rides a bit better now Then I went over and pulled the B3 out of Danny's car and stripped all the necessary B3 parts needed for the B6 swap. Hopefully I can pick up the B6 either tomorrow or Thursday

The car can be lowered almost 4 inches with zero rub and still turn lock to lock.

I removed the power seat belt motors and rails today and I'm making my harness bar so it will pass tech.

Picked up a few more of the parts for Danny's, and ordered the last two items I know for sure that it will need... hopefully the motor tomorrow is all there and in pristine shape. For the mileage it should be

Just got done smashing the dirt-bobber nest out of the heater outlet on the intake on Chuck! Still pondering how it got in there in the first place, because both heater hoses were still attached to both the motor and heater core on the 323 in the yard. Oh well, I HAVE HEAT NOW! Still need to flush everything, gotta get some cascade powder (I need the lemon flavored one right Jim? :razz: :lol on the way home today and flush all our cars, but for now I'm happy that I'll be nice and toasty running pizza tonight Maybe I'll replace the broken section of exhaust this afternoon on Babystiva... maybe I won't lol, who knows? Picking up Danny's motor bright and early tomorrow, fingers crossed that they'll accept the B3 as a core for the B6.

[kumalaba]

they probably wont know the difference!
