I've missed out on some good stuff in here. Luke, you are officially the new Turge. Congrats!

Turge, if you're still out there, congrats on no longer being turge!

There is only one Turdanator.... and he now drives a E36.

Cheers,

Jim

When I was 19, I bought my car off a 16 year old and it looked like this..



Aaand like this




So I changed things up, little by little to make it look more decent.



I was missing the fenders because I wanted some in oem black, but never got to them.

Need a lead on a place to rent a garage as close to West LA as possible, willing to go north towards Hollywood, trying to avoid going south. I already found a spot in Inglewood, but ,..... I think Im going to keep looking.

HELP!

HELP!

I can't help, but, is it a garage just to park/store a car in? Or a place with wiggle room to wrench on your car?


I visited my high school today. I have concluded I am more attractive to high school girls than I am to college girls. Girl at college don't give me a second look, but those young ones smile and wave. Damn I miss being 19.

Donations accepted to the "build a coffee table" fund! I need a sturdy piece of glass, will run me about $90. :D The glass currently on it is obviously too small, and too thin; it will be remade into shelving on the side of the block. Also looking for a free scratched-up oil pan to add to this.

So as you can read in my sig, this is the engine I blew up.


There should be two pistons+rods supporting it, but I broke one when transporting it. It will be fixed.



Believe it or not, this is also a project being made for my 3D art class at school. It is not yet done, more parts will be welded. Part donations welcome.

eww, non turbo?? That thing will be a slow dog. more like a crawling tank. Those things are bulletproof though. I remember the first time I drove a turbo version, not sure if it was modified or not but it was a mechanic owned car...

I had to make a left out of a parking lot and was going to turn into the center lane. Lots of traffic coming in both directions, but I saw my gap and went for it. Hammered the throttle and it crawled forward. Traffic was coming at me quick and I honestly thought I was going to get t-boned. Suddenly out of nowhere, the turbo finally spooled, the boost kicked in and I lunged forward, but now I wasnt expecting it and I almost went into the other traffic!

Needless to say, for being a such a slow POS it was a terrifying drive

[itskingsteelo]

Yeah i know those shits are slow, i dont like the response on diesel, maybe for a truck, yes. But for a car, hell nah. I dont know im not too happy about his decision, i hope he goes with somethin better.
