Well, it's on the EPDC forum, it's on d-town, and now it's gonna be on here. ;D enjoy. I'll copy and paste what I've got so far, and will have some more updates tomorrow.
Some of you know the whole story behind this thing, some of you do not. After finding out that I sucked at life sliding the s2000 and that I was prob gonna lose it anyway I was pretty caught up with getting an s13. I had ridden in Sam's, driven it, slid with him in it, and loved it.
Pulled a miracle out of my ass and got Nicku's car. I love it, but it seems like the car just followed my luck down the shitter recently.
Went out in search of new spots to practice without getting caught. Found a bunch of secluded parking lots not too far from my house on google earth and took off for a fun night of sliding. Went out and ripped up a parking lot out near St. Franny, and after I was done it sounded like my exhaust came off. Car died on the way home and I had a hard time starting it, finally started so I mashed on it since I was only like 3 miles from home. Pop goes the motor. Sam and I got started on ripping out the KA, hole in the block the size of texas.....yeah. Here's some of the pics from the night the motor came out and the day I was throwing Adam's KA in.
So we got Adam's KA in, against my will haha. I was pretty set on waiting for an SR. Still debating it in fact. But we got the KA in. Had some tranny issues, got everything up to par and it drove great. My clutch is still messed up though and I can't seem to figure out what it is. It's gotta be air in the lines. That and I need a new exhaust, mine is shot. Hopefully ryan should be doin that soon.
Anyway I took it out one night to get a good feel for it again. I had tandemed with sam and eric one time and messed around a little bit but that was about it. Took it out, practiced a little transitioning and headed home to grab some brewskies. Got my stuff from my house and headed to a buddies house......hit a deer.
That's how it sits today. Waitin to get some money from insurance and then it's gettin overhauled. I'll update with pictures each step of the way. Now I just need to decide if I want an SR and if I do, where to get it from.
