Hey Celica! I remember that. Just know it went to a good home and I think you'll see more of it here soon :).

Fran - I've never had the car weighed. I plan on taking more out of it this summer and maybe throwing some lighter seats in it. It's definitely a weekend warrior/drag car so it doesn't need much. I have no plans to drive it in the winter so I may take the heater core and all of that out too, but I'm not sold on that idea yet. My DD is a Mazdaspeed 3 which I absolutely love. The only car I'd consider besides it for a DD is an EVO of some sort but then I think I'd stop showing the DSM any love, lol. The body is a bit rough, but overall it's in good shape with no rust anywhere which makes it really nice to work on. When I blew the 6 bolt that was in it in September, my buddy Ryan and I had the new motor in and running in a couple of weekends which was really surprising to me.

Speaking of Ryan, hopefully I'll be able to post up some pics and vids of his setup, it's a very clean black Talon 2G converted to RWD with a built 6 bolt (2.0L), T3 GT35R82, T350 trans with manual valvebody, and a massive 9" rearend, all put together and fabbed by him and a local shop he helps out at. It should be a beast and will *hopefully* run at the SO this year. I'm looking forward to an exciting 2012!

Kevin, he was being sarcastic about my friend Ryan's 2G RWD setup :)
