I have a very difficult time NOT kicking it sideways when turning from Dobson on to Price rd, heading home from work. Floor first, kick it in to second and slide around that turn.

Ive always loved them and finally got one last year. Plan to build a full turbo kit and go stand alone. Looking to make 400+ to the wheels. Def need to paint it sooner or later as well

You should plastidip it in the mean time. Dipyourcar.com has a pretty nice sprayer and they sell dip prethinned so it turns out pretty nice. You can even get glossifier if you don't want a matte finish. It's what I'll probably do to my VR-4 once I finally get it out here and running.

I had everything I needed to go MPI for my car. But it had a coolant problem, and I replaced a bunch of shit (radiator, hoses, fans, etc) and then finally discovered the water pump had no blades left. So I replaced that, it ran perfectly (Except for minor fueling hiccups) and then it died at the track

Didn't get out there until 9:30. I was the only frs, I just park in front of home depot anyways. I just want to see an exhaust on one to get a better idea of what my options are.
