Did you get ALL of your parts used?Kinda sorta. I'm going for a period correct build. In other words, how it would have built circa early 90's. But some stuff (like the turbo timer) is 18 years old and I found one new in the box, never used. But others like the ARC stuff, they don't make anymore. So yeah they're used. Does an airbox (besides the filter) wear out? Don't think so.

ive always thought "period-correct builds" were a really cool concept.
are you using that arc sidemount? if not i would like to buy it
Echonova

I haven't put it on yet, but yea I'm planning on using it. Got a Greddy front mount as well if you're interested. Anything is for sale for the right price (except the kids... Wife is negotiable).

LOL, my oldest daughter will be 12 in a week. Yea I'm a bit older than most, which is one of the reasons I'm doing the car like this. Show you whipper snappers what is was like back in the day (pre-Nopi rice). No fancy computers adjusting the torque bias because of the yaw angle or stupid sh*t like anti-lock brakes. All you need a three key things to control your car.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Echonova again.
That made me laugh so hard I nearly cried. I've got this whole inside joke about HS girls...

-So! What do you think of Natasha?
-I think she's illegal.
-Yeah, I've made peace with that. Seriously, look at her. You know she has that Scooby-Doo tongue.
-Ratutory Rape!
-Yeah... Maybe she is too young.
-Oh! Like that's ever stopped you before.
-You know what? That is a very, very good point.
