Yup, 135 ripper in 5th gear gave me a taste of the goodness. Time to rebuild I guess. I'm still a little shocked. Im sure i'll feel the full effect when I wake up tomorrow. This sucks. Don't know what caused it, there are a few possibilites. Probably just the load put on it. Onto the carnage

I wanna cry! It was definately fun, and to think, just an hour before hand we were complaining about the guage pillar pod bouncing up and down when you hit a bump... don't you worry man, there's always room for improvement!

goin down memory lane...

pushing you for about 10 miles doin 65mph down the hiway, cracking my bumper in half

the countless yellings we got from your pops for working so late

dustin and the laffy taffy

me and the peanut butter jelly and a baseball bat

having your gas tank on the ground for about a week and your dad waking you up to make you push the car out of the garage because all he can smell is gas all thru the house

the phone calls of "I ran out of gas"

finding out why your car wouldn't keep running and having everyone tell us that wasn't the problem but it soooooo was!


ahhhhh....... feel free to add your own!

nite bro. See you tomorrow

PS. Ur still a JIM! should have just bought a body kit!

Not really...I was just making sure that's what you were saying but I hope you don't get upset if someone does make a comment about you doing 135 MPH because you know that you were pushing the limit of your car.

Honestly, it looked like you had a nice running turbo'd z24 and I can't hold that against you. I hope you get your car back up and running, I'd hate for the JBO to lose another turbo'd jbody.

I'm not the one to rag on people...I'm sure you've heard enough in person, you don't need it from me or anyone else. I wish you the best of luck. Keep us updated.

Peace.

U scare me pete.....but i also know that 4th and 5th gear pulls put ALOT of stress on the motor. Hopefully my 7 or 8 lbs will hold up on the stock 2.4 until the rebuild. Good luck with your build and you should up the boost and shut those damn HMT honda pussys the hell up. If you dont i will
