about a week or so ago i turned my car on to the sound of 3 cylinders and a high idle. finally it starting firing on all 4 but the idle was still high

then i noticed my water pump seal created a fountain thanks to the last HMP event (which was awesome by the way)

so i roll down the street and hear a noise i've never heard before....


thanks to this guy calling it quits on me

here's what she sounded like (damn tinypic and their difficult embed crap).....

and here is the car getting it's new welded diff installed thanks to my brother slideshow and his generosity.
he let me run his open diff in her til i get mine squared away

they have them every so often. the last one happened 3 weeks ago or so i think..... just keep an eye on h240 for all the upcoming events

but now she's welded and i must say i kind of like it better. way more predictable

ill keep an eye out.


the only thing i dont like about a welded diff is the shimmy on lowspeed turns. not that bad though, well worth the time and effort.

i really want to participate next year.

i will be driving at the next event at ggp.my little brothers 86 though. ill be the guy doing a bunch of circles. i just dont have the funds to finish yet. fuckn obama let bushes tax break go out so we only get half the tax credit on our children and head of houshold this season so there goes most of the money i was going to use to finish.

some pointers would be cool at ggp if you go rob.
