I bought an 88 civic hatchback,
I bought a 95 looks like a 98 mits eclipse GSX,
I bought a 91 Pontiac Sunbird,
I bought a 90 mits eclipse GSX,
and broke them all and many others.
------------------------------------
I knew about QPR but tried to fix my own car myself.
I didn't whip out the biggest credit card I could find it and give it to QPR.
------------------------------------
I raced people for no reason at all in above cars at stupid times and in minivans owned by my parents.
------------------------------------
I still believe I can own a car that won't break.

Are you sure about RS Motors being gone? I called them today and they were still there and said they had an AWD dyno.

The dumbest thing I did with my GSX, was to buy suspension for the car, never use it, and end up losing money on it. :(
Nah, I thought that was a pretty good thing. =D

I still think I win this contest. I've probably spent well over $35k in my car by now. Stupid me.
Ya don't worry you'll never catch up to me.... your not even 1/2 way to what I've spent.

I did something like what Raptor did. In high school, the fuse popped for the brake lights on my 73 Valiant. Being the cheap ass that I was, I wrapped the fuse in tinfoil instead of spending the $1 to buy new ones. It held for quite a while until I was a block away from home and I got smoked out of the car. The headlights dimmed, smoke started rolling out from under the dash and I could see 3 wires glowing red thru the thick smoke. I spent about 7 hours or so the next day rewiring almost the entire car all the way back to the brake lights. DOHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wanted a loud ricey muffler for my Neon(yes I said Neon) back in the day, but I couldn't afford it. So I took my drill and a big UniBit and drilled four holes into the muffler to make it loud.
