So you got it?!? Cool!Originally Posted by Stormhammer
oh yea folks - stage 3 is coming up... that engine is being yanked out, turbo is being put on another engine that just needs a timing chain tensioner and oil pump, built engine gets torn down and rebuilt, with the MPI ( I have most of the setup already - EP3sAreFun also has the same setup ) and the non-built engine will be put back into this car and soon followed up by the MPI switch out

You got any black interior parts (or anything other than burgundy!)? 88-89 front seats maybe (if they fit an 86-87)?

^^ not yet - only me and another member know where its at though- I actually sold my old 89 seats the other day
( I still say keep looking for something with a black interior )

Well, I can deal w/ the maroon interior so I'm not too worried about it. If I find black for cheap and I have the dough, I'll pick it up.

hey Daily, I'm jahjah on SQC. let me know if you got any questions.
Mine really dosn't leave the garage. People across the street think it is a tool bench.
Know anyone that might want an SQ? I'm probably only going to keep one but I haven't decided which one I want for myself (seeing as I haven't even looked at them yet!).
But I will be selling it quickly to reimburse for the purchase. Just get one running and cleaned up...
Just keep it in mind!

Any of you know a guy with 6 of them, 2 or 3 of them being wides? Think he's on the DTM boards and talked to him the other day, the one he was driving had Starquest on a windshield banner...
^^ I think I know who your taking about - lives out in power springs/marietta area? like 6'7, long blonde hair? If so, thats Mike Massey - he has the first Starion I ever drove
oh... crummy news, the guy decided to keep it after informing others he had a buyer andthey talked him out of it - ah well, at least we can help him fix it so he can chill with us
̿' ̿'\̵͇̿̿\з=(•̪●)=ε/̵͇̿̿/'̿'̿ ̿
Think it was dark hair but is long. He has 3 and his gf owns the other 3. i have his e-mail...we should organize a shoot with everyone's starions/conquests. Any meets coming up?^^ I think I know who your taking about - lives out in power springs/marietta area? like 6'7, long blonde hair? If so, thats Mike Massey - he has the first Starion I ever drove
is his email a mindspring one? and he's like into his 50s/60s ( his gf has blonde hair as well ) - Mike Massey?
Hmm, there IS a cookout coming up at my place - thinking March 3rd, altho we do randomly get together on a spur of the moment basis.
A shoot would be freakin great - if we plan far enough in advanced, I can promise you you will have literally a full spectrum from black to white to red to maroon to fiji blues to yellows to palermo's gold and atlantic blues
̿' ̿'\̵͇̿̿\з=(•̪●)=ε/̵͇̿̿/'̿'̿ ̿
yep, that sounds right. Don't think he's quite that old though! :-p I'm up for a shoot, hopefully have the new lenses in the next month or so!is his email a mindspring one? and he's like into his 50s/60s ( his gf has blonde hair as well ) - Mike Massey?

the shop next to Tiger Racing (Puerto Rican guys) had a 510 with a stock conquest engine....ran 11.2 on slicksThe right suspension and tires can help with wheel spin
I talked to Thomas jr, he knows nothing about that. Maybe some guys that were just there?
Has the old corolla or celica or something too. He was there nearly everytime i had stopped over at Tigers shop....really old white one on the side of the building and a blue one up front.

So what's wrong with the Palermo again?

Justin drove it ^_^

^^ screw you!
Aside from the engine knocking (pretty sure the main bearings went ), its plagued with electrical gremlins ( lets try the alternator wiring kept melting of the bolt kept being cut through, fusible links going through meltdown, the alarm system never deactivating - which was a bitch and a half because everytime i opened the car door - EVERYTIME - the alarm would go off, and the headlights would set off, so I had to d/c the horn and headlight relays for the alarm, and for some reaosn of another if the batt was left connected it would drain it in a matter of hours, although we coundt find any light or anything that was on ) - just something I do NOT want to deal with
