Yeah I had a NRG too, I replaced it with a non-SRS ITR wheel, but now it is in my beater, and I'm bidding on this for the beater, then I might sell the NRG.



Vega car is looking like mine, except blue 88 doors on a red crx, no clip, and a black hood. I can't wait till it is all white.

Nobody in their right mind unless they have tons of money and time to waste on that rust bucket should ever buy it. It needs to be crushed.

No, it should be parted out. The sum of the parts is most likely greater than the whole, assuming the interior does not look like the exterior.

I can take apart my whole car without air/power tools. I'd rather not but it can be done.

I pulled my motor without air tools and without a cherry picker. I could just as easily put another motor in.

I did my entire swap and rear disc conversion all by hand. I have an impact gun and air compressor now, but you don't need it. Do yourself a favor and get a 1/2" breaker bar from sears. Decent price, good leverage and a warranty. Besides, you west coast guys don't even know about the rust we have to deal with here. I removed my rear disc conversion in a junkyard by hand, laying in the snow. Man up!

Word, word. My friend's EH2 was from Michigan. We snapped both heads of the bolts connecting the strut to the LCA, by hand. Rust =

Another option would be to let your brother store his 30gal compressor and air tools in your garage. It makes life 1 bazillion times easier.

My neighbor has a cheery picker and some power tools
But I'm not going to rely on him just incase he is not around.
I heard Chad picks up 2jz Supra motors with his bear hands with no gloves using his back with no problem.
I think I'm going to give that a try

Yeah, just remember, lift with your lower back, in a jerking, twisting motion.
