    Bone stock, got some real pics











    Missing the trim around the gauge cluster because I'm about to get some odo gears

    Exterior needs some work but the interior is near mint save for the dash cracks. Bottlecaps with crappy 195s are fun and easy to spin for the time being, although it's in need of an LSD. :D The front swaybar is attached at the end links but it's missing a subframe mount and the RSMs are dead I think, what's the deal with the "repair shop" rear mounts, are they inferior to OEM stuff?

    Love this little car, I've already fixed most of the little electrical issues by replacing fuses etc after lurking around for hours on end. Diving boards ftw ;)

    I'm getting timing belt stuff tomorrow and am going to change it out ASAP, as far as I know it hasn't been changed in over 3 years.

          I'd like to lower it and put some wide dished 15 or 16" weaves on it. Got any more pics of your car?

            Thats all I can dig up right now. It's going back on stock suspension this week however.

                    Really? The interior's great but the oxidation on the hood, trunk and roof is horrible. It's gone through the primer, I've got a PC 7424 but this is irreparable, will need to be painted if I ever get to that point.

                    That said, I actually am really feeling the diving boards and higher rear arches, although the car idles rough--wish it had the 173 motronic. Could be some new plugs and a new dizzy cap/rotor will help it though.

                    What exactly are you envious of on the car? :nice:

                      The awesome stockness and DBs... I just wish I had a nice daily beater! something to fix up a few things on and have fun with.

                        I would slam it first. I love the color of the planes inside.

                              I'll drop it eventually, probably on the bandwagon H&R sports--nothing too drastic.

                              Planes? Que?

                              Kinda like the diving boards and I'm not gonna spend too much $ on cosmetics (paint is in bad shape)
