Hawaiianized? So you're going to sell it and buy one of these:

Exactly. Haha can't cruise the island without a lifted truck, preferably rusty

[Mlarsen]

....I like that. It'd look a lot better if there was a sled in the back

[LuckyHenriksen]

Need a bigger bed for that haha

[mulletman]

Ah, Hawaiians and their Toyota trucks... A better love story than twilight. Haha.


Although when I was there in the beginning of March, I saw a slammed red NA Miata with a license plate that read "NQ HQMQ." I assume "NO HOMO" wasn't going to fly with the licensing people, but subbing in the letter 'q' got the job done. Haha.

So power steering is bubbling in the sedan... Never had this before, help? It bubbled out of the overflow in the cap and I took off the cap and it was bubbling. But after a while it settled back Down.

Sounds like a failing pump.

[Wschnitz]

Great, more money to spend... Is a 318is pump the same?

[IronJoe]

You know what's cool?

Opening your hood and smelling fuel, seeing stains on the fuel rail and intake, Starting your engine with the hood open and watching gasoline spurt two feet into the air.

[Wschnitz]

Hahaha, I don't feel so frustrated with my problems now

[dashboardmonkey]

^ that IS cool. If you like to die.

Toyota bro truck? Fuck no. Im shipping my e30. Going to raise up the suspension and put a roof rack on it. Have some other things to address as well.

BTW, how loud was my car when i got onto marine drive leaving abebq? Just curious as I have no idea what it sounds like outside the car.

I was wondering what that picture you sent me was all about. Pretty sure the pumps are different.

I looked at them and they appear to be the same, with different mounting brackets is all.

It is, mine did it on the 325i before I replaced it.

I would really check by part #'s, on realoem they come up different.
