I can drive the 914 immediately whereas the 2002 will need an engine built. it does have nicer paint though...

    first world problems....

    BTW enjoying San Jose? Where exactly did you end up? Close to downtown, or what? Look up Hicks Road. Thats my old stomping grounds
    Eh but then you own a Porsche and one of the good ones too. Those little 4s are pretty durable as well and tend not to be super finicky.

    I'm moving up the 15th (putting the drivetrain back in the car this week) I found a place in ryland pretty close to japan town. I'll haft to look Hicks road up I'm going to need to find some good roads.

      There's definitely some good roads out there, dont worry. There's also a decent E30 scene in San Jose and the bay in general.

        Hey everyone,
        Been looking at online tires, tire rack and the likes and I can't seem to find a matching set of 205-215/45/16

        Can anyone point me in the right direction please?

        Or something similar for a little more grip. I've had Firestone suggest *Nexen* after I mentioned Federal 595s or Kumhos carry my sizes and I was looking for a little more performance.

          Dunlops or re-11, which ever has better wear.

          No to r888's. They'll wear if you just look at them and are super noisy.

          Falken 615k's make a 205/40 and 215/45 matching set if that's an option.

              Do they also carry these in 16"? That's the issue.

                                I put my phone and wallet on top of the car as I was getting in.

                                I grabbed the wallet.

                                Forgot the phone.

                                Drove away. :curse:
