^ I use a very similar crimp tool to that for larger stuff. It works great, and they offer one with removable dies as well. I got mine from www.parts-express.com. Here's a link to the tool I have: http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?Partnumber=360-642 Thus far, I like it. I'm slowly...

^They gave my brother $12.5k for his '98. :)

86.5 Turboswapped hardtop 5 speed FTW. :)

This. I don't give a purple poop how much something costs, so long as the quality is there. :)

The first step should always be to check the codes. If you're driving along the interstate at 85mph, and your motor drops out under the car and rolls through 6 lanes of busy traffic at rush hour, check your codes!

I'm not content paying just under retail for anything I won't be able to bring back to the store I purchased it through.

With the roof removed, there is a noticeable amount of flexing. Going from a targa car straight to a hardtop car, you really notice the difference in rigidity.

Just roll down both windows all the way, regardless of the weather. Roll up the one that the officer doesn't come to. :)

You can't judge anything by PSI. That number is useless, as air movement vs PSI changes drastically between turbos. A gt28 would choke a 3.0L motor.

Here's a pic of my re-worked rear subframe w/ RK poly bushings. Please note only the tops are in, and I removed the steel sleeves so they wouldn't get lost. (All welding by Slow66 here on the forums- he did a fantastic job!)

Title changed. Everybody flag it!

Looks like a great platform to start with! :) Congrats!

LOL, some of those are hilarious!
