I did two wheel bearings and struts/springs on my Talon 3 days before the fall cruise last year. Never again. One week out for that stuff, save for fluids.

If that's the case then I'll drive the Plymouth. It's been a quite a while since I've trusted the Evo enough to not have my entire tool box in the trunk. It's a DSM, you know.

And we might have to take you up on that since my car's longest trip has been about 13-16 miles each way.

I'm getting boost, trans and egt. Probably the boost will be the only one working.

Ha im always paranoid, but i made it to river falls at a pretty quick speed whipped a few donuts on a huge grass field. Made it in time to uni then almost 1/3 of the way to duluth cause i got lost and back home. DSM arent that bad for road trips. I was more worried about runing out of gas at that moment.

Spaz will still be fixing his shit in the parking lot, even if it is a stock turbo.

Don't worry, I'll probably be right beside you.

Got the motor in tonight, finally. Just have to fab up a downpipe, IC lower pipe, do the brakes, break in the motor, and get it tuned. 2-week rule, bah!

2 week rule, you have 2 weeks to start building the car from almost ground up, and have it complete in 2 weeks. Right? :-P

Is it too hard to ask that people stick to the 2 week rule? Its there for a reason, so we dont have to worry as much about people breaking down along the way.

^It's true. Sadly some of us aren't doing simple bolt ons or really want to go and actually have the ability and/or help to make it with our pride and joy.

I know he is old, but i'd be surprised if OMH had any issues with his car. I still don't have my hub back, but i did pick up a WB!!

Incorrect. Remember when spaz & mark did brakes the night before, then his lugs were loose when we were on our way or when we got there? The goal is to have the engine/tranny/chassis/driver 110% confident in the car so you can just go and enjoy a nice drive through the wilderness :) 2-week rule includes maintenance!

x1000!

Whatever the last thing you touch is, put 200-300 miles on it before we leave, then CHECK YOUR FLUID LEVELS AND TIRE PRESSURE, then off we go!

Nope, you might not screw the drain bolt on all the way and leak all your oil out during the cruise :P haha
