  1. yer trailer was playing whack a mole with the road. I wish I d recorded it. I didn't say you suck as a driver. David said you are really calm and law-abiding while driving. I'm pretty sure he was stoned at the time... pot, kettle.
  2. @KZJonny asked if I would bring parts out. A wrx has a hefty trunk, I might have to check a duffle of lgt rare parts Ive seen @JJBerk tow a trailer...I'm definitely driving the wrx. I'll bring the Valentine radar detector so we can actually drive at Boxkitty speed.
  3. boxkita's wagon was 750's side injectors. ran at about 95%. pulled like a freight train. Im pretty well convinced it was the best car that shop ever built.
  4. currently talking with jjberk about sharing a ride to ECM. If she has her suv, i'd bring a couple suitcases of parts. otherwise, yeah, I'm carryon only.
  5. Trust me...selling my wagon was tuff. I purposely haven't contacted Gunnar about his wagon not that I don't think about it. Often. I have one engine and Fjuan's sedan still in my garage. I have a possible buyer for the outback. Keeping a LGT is a high likelihood. Sort of tempted to talk with Mike about building me a 2024 version of a LGT wagon, but I think long distance driving might be off the table for awhile. Last summer's drive greatly inflamed an old snowboard injury, and I walk with alot of pain now. Flying in and renting a crappy rental (baja racing truck) is easier for awhile. When I was 20-30's, knocking out a 3k road-trip in a weekend was cake. 30 years later, it's getting harder to walk it off. Maybe we get a ski boat and a wakeboard for the weekend. Getting on the plane home in a haze of pain would be perfect, especially if the contact high wore off somewhere over Chicago.
  6. i have a freshly cleaned set of 850's i got from sbt sometime ago. i never used them . @KZJonny - want them?
  7. Had a brutal road trip to phoenix and back last week. 5000 miles in a week, including a painful night sleeping in the car. With the gr86 crossing 20,000 miles, seriously considering the long term viability of the car. Love driving it for day and weekend trips but cross country isn't really viable. OMG, I think I may be too old to drive a sportscar for long miles anymore. I need a moment to process... Yeah, so, I'm looking for a nearby airport that has Sixt car rental and a hot car option. A random search is mostly returning Camry and other not fun options. Baltimore has just as many crappy options as other airports. Maybe David can bring more than a toothbrush, though. I'll ping @JJBerk and see what their plans are
  8. I thought David bot a wrx? or are you towing the trailer with that?
  9. I'm going for 4 days, at least not a full week. Still working on my route, but picking him up or dropping off might be possible. His luggage could only be a toothbrush tho.
  10. the gr86 forums are likewise. on an aero thread. after all the testing awfulwaffle did n the lgt platform, I feel like I'm feeding trolls responding to the thread. their butt dynos are higher rated than a mustang dyno
  11. i looked at the grc before buying the gr86. I'd already had a turbo chevy sonic. Grc seemed too "boy racer"...I could have kept the wagon. Just wanted a small 6mt car. Have liked the brz look since they came out. So far, it's been everything I wanted. Except for the 2 grocery bag trunk space...that's hard to overcome.
  12. I should have canceled my membership here after selling the wagons. About once a week, I'm tempted to call up the new owner of my black wagon and see if they ll sell it back. Then I read a couple posts in this thread, and I'm ok again.
  13. drop the engine. it's alot easier to put in the new IAG closed deck shortblock..
