Actually, you're right. I should get the motor in my car next weekend and have a week to shake it down provided everything goes smooth.

Ha! You know you drive an E30 when a $15 part is still too damn expensive!

Remember when you had one, and you said if you ever sold it, you'd regret it... and then you sold it... and then regretted it. Nah, keep your goal in line here... you want a fast car for tracking so that you can race and be an instructor. When is the 323 getting plated?

I should have already had it plated and insured, but the past two weeks have been 2002 nonstop! I will focus on that next week so I can at least get around. I've already started looking into swaps and suspension just to get some character into it, because right now it is the total opposite of the e30... No soul at all.

Ugh, what did I do lol.
