Now once this monster was takin care of and got it all together it was time to hit the streets (with a devilish laugh)... Wait... the devilish laugh never stopped... I got 10 miles down the road and the fuel pump went out! Damnit... am i chapped now. Soooo, made a call to Z1 and burned 400$ on a new pump and sub frame spacers. So im changing the pump 2 days later at the gas station where she left me and i come across these little thingys near the fuel tank with suction cups.... hmm what the hell, my profile was right! i still didnt know what the suction cups where for and realized where the saying came from. but anyway 20 minutes lookin at the suction cups and 15 mins of changing the pump im ready to go. So here i go to the house to change the subframe bushings, I already had no tration on the 245's before the exhaust and not it is jus a total loss until the top of third. So with the bushings im going to put my factory wheels back on that have my 255 drag radials. well something so simple right?

Now lets not forget i have to take my 13" brakes off the front... and have my stock rotors turned, replace broken studs, and replace pads. seem to have forgotten this in my "jus puttin my factories back on"

But anyway.... Final outcome is awesome to say the least. Can really tell the difference in spool up and power! Exhaust sounds great! I forgot how hard the car pulled with traction in 1rst and 2nd using the drag radials. The 2-3 days of cursing and mean mugging visitors all day long was well worth it :-)

I do not fear what the future holds for me, I am not afraid to die.
