            Nice! Ever thought of shaving the door keyholes?

            I sure have, even if its just the passenger one, that side isn't keyed to my keys anyway...

              Finally committed to what m20 I'm gonna go with!

              Gaskets ordered, dropping the 731 off for surfacing tomorow, just need to pick up a clutch, head studs and whatever else pops up.

              Crossing my fingers the compression on my spare eta checks out.

                nah i'm leaving the keyholes. didn't even cross my mind.
                i do have keyless entry though and there is always the open the doors from the trunk method.

                fuck i may erase them. i never even use those ones.....

                      buddy i'm storing this car for. has another black one with a twin screw supercharger setup on an s52. in final stages of tuning it now. should be ridiculous when done.

                      we picked up the white car at the port of tacoma, just waiting for the owner to come and claim it. coupe cartel favors. pretty nice condition. guy got it for $12k or so shipped from anchorage to here.

                      needs some minor body stuff and minor interior, and a clutch job. and new wheels. fair deal. car is 7.5/10 overall.

                        A little rave here...Alignment Specialties in Beaverton freaking ROCK. They really know their stuff. I just had my car done with the custom camber/toe for $59.95. Not the cheapest, but I don't think I'll be going anywhere else.
