Re: It's spring time and is you car running?
My GSX has worked since I bought it in Feb, and I've only been making it run nicer/look better. Knock on wood, though.
The conquest got up and running for the first time in almost 2 years about 2 weeks ago. Just gave it a bath. I need to do some more misc crap to it, and figure out why I can't go WOT...but other than that, it's all good.

Re: It's spring time and is you car running?
Car is running but tranny's bad. Center Diff let go as I was pulling into my garage after a few hours of sitting out by Moroso during a Chevy/Ford day waiting for people to play with.
Once I get situated back up north. LSE will get the tranny to look at. Shifts just fine but case has a hairline crack.

Re: It's spring time and is you car running?
Yup, mine is running as well. First time in years that my car is running at the beggining of the season. Nice to feel 1.5bar on some old C16.

Re: It's spring time and is you car running?
2 weeks ago.
- Running 92 TSI awd. (only DSM owned at the time) Completely gutted it out. Parted out anything worth keeping. I have sold all of the bigger items. The chassis is GONE.
Current.
-90 FWD turbo eclipse ( only dsm Owned now) Picked up parts to build the motor / car on Friday. Spent all of Friday night organizing my parts and picking up the new parts for the 90 eclipse. Saturday was spent towing DSMs back and forth. We removed the engine / tranny from the car. Sunday at like 2am we drove out to LSE to pick up a good head, ARPS, and gear lube and drop off the engine out of the talon. Thanks alot guys!
I did a complete 360 in 2 weeks. I'm still not sure exactly what is going on but I'm HOPING to have the car in running / driving condition by next weekend! So clearly I voted sometime in spring! However it is a busted ass Brok3n dsm so It probably won't run until next spring :P
