Where'd you get this list? I'm surprised to see Nebraska mentioned.

How big are the stock wheels, or could you throw a measuring tape up the wheel well?

I think Warren had a TH400 in his zx. I'm pretty sure he's running a 'glide now. I have a 700r4 in mine but it needed some massaging to fit. Eventually I'm going to have to cut/weld to get the engine and trans as far back as I'd like.

Glad you got it all fixed up. My buddy had the heater core on his 86 vette go out and took it to a shop. They took two weeks and $650 to fix it.

Hahaha, OMG Aux that made my day!

Yeah, the link worked fine for me.

Hey man, your car is as nice as ever! I'm glad you got it all fixed after going bust at the strip. Sweet vids. Ben

http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=121048&highlight=tilt+front+end There are a couple S30s with tilt front ends. I haven't seen any S130s with them, though. There is no "kit" for it, you'd have to fabricate it.

Did you talk to John at Betamotorsports? He'd probably be able to get you what you need. Shoot him an email or pm on here.

Really? C'mon....

He's doing pretty well. He's pretty stubborn so he works in his garden on his acreage every day and was using his full sized rototiller about four weeks after surgery He did have a little trouble with depression once he got home and wasn't able to do very much. You dad has to be in the hospital for three weeks? My grandpa was only in for five days I think. Best of luck, my grandpa would have gone crazy Ben

Kechup's maybe? http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=115810&highlight=turbo&page=2 Edit: never mind, he's in TX and that video was in Idaho.

Speedy recovery. My grandfather had a quad bypass about a month and a half ago so I know how nerve racking it can be waiting for news.

What about a KLR 650 or 400? They're dual sport bikes so they have lights, blinkers, speedo, etc. so they might be ok for street use in CA? Edit: I know they're a little bigger engine than you said, but my buddy had a 650 and still got 50+ MPG with average driving around town.

Make sure it's greased. When I got my engine stand it was all rusty and gunked up in there. With it cleaned and greased it's not hard to rotate an engine by my self. Draining the oil will help a lot. Make sure you have lots of rags/ cardboard/ kitty litter when you flip the engine over.

Glad you got it all sorted out Scott!

Yeah, I'm calling BS on that story too. I really doubt any teenage boy is doing anything with 500 lbs in his bedroom at his parents house. Squats in the garage or something maybe but "chest curls" whatever they are... BS.

I JUST ordered the same book Grumpy linked to. Amazon has it for ~30 shipped.

I agree you don't want to push your son, but make sure he stays engaged in school and most importantly learns how to study. I just finished my freshman year of college and barely scraped together a 3.0 GPA. I lost my full tuition scholarship and my honors scholarship because I didn't know how to study. I was offered a chance to take the SAT in middle school like your son but didn't for one reason or the other. Throughout high school I NEVER studied because I didn't have to. I wasn't straight A, but had a 3.8 something GPA at graduation. I just drifted through and did the minimum to get by but never had to work very hard. My first semester of college I finished with a 2.4 GPA because I didn't do ANY homework or studying. The first half of the semester I just didn't because it wasn't required, but by midterm when I realized I had Cs in three of my classes I tried to study but really didn't know how. All this is still a ways off for you son, but it's just something to keep in mind. Congrats on your son's test score, it must make you proud Ben

Congrats!

If I remember right, Yassin does some wheel restoration/ polishing, etc. You might PM him or look through his posts.

Wow... amazing!

Any chance of a vid of that beast? The boss called me earlier and I don't have to work sunday instead of monday now. I don't mind too much, though, since I took today off Probably going to continue tearing down the 350 and work on tuning the 305 on monday then.

Working.
