Re: BUILT NOT BOUGHT!
ok so i drove up to visit a friend in providence today and on my way there i had to go over one of those metal plates that construction workers put over big holes when they do road work so i took it slow going over it (because there was a car on the other side of the road so i couldn't go around it) and all of a sudden i heard a bang and the car was at like 347894789356893 decibles....so i got out and this is what i saw (sorry for poor quality)
and here is what i hit. if you look closely i moved the pate...
edit: the exhaust was above the scrub line and bent down when i hit the plate. the corner of the plate caught the first bend in the piping

Re: BUILT NOT BOUGHT!
seem like there has been a lot to talk about since my last post. 
Well i just wanted to update you guys on my clutch. Drove it today to work and back and boy does it feel 10x better then the stock clutch. Yea the clutch pedal is a lot stiffer but the car drive smooth. With the stock clutch it lag to go but with the new clutch it just goes. I can also feel the car accelerate quicker with the lighter flywheel.
my exhaust sounds like crap. I cant wait until my viberant box gets here.
how is everyone else doing?
