Thanks for the input. What do you run for engine management?

I ran a Lex built megasquirt.

Sweet deal

Bought these Hercules G5000z tires 205/45/zr16 w87's with rims for $160!

The tires are almost new! There is one damaged rim, but I'm pulling the tires off, sending the rims to the recyclers. I'll get $16 / rim so these tires will have cost me $100!
Putting them on my Montegi's...

Why not put the wheels for sale for like 150 and try to sell them without the tires. Easiest free tires you'll get.

[Wilyb]

The far left rim is pretty badly damaged (3 o'clock). There's a chunk out of it...nobody will buy those...

[atomicEGT]

They'd make perfect drift rims, especially if you sold them cheap...

[Ace]

Yeah, lots of people don't care how bent / beat up the wheel is, as long as the tire will hold air and they can bolt it up. The wheels I put my buddies sliding tires on are about as straight as a potato chip.

Nearly decided to throw my freshly rebuilt tranny in the trash lol. I'm fed up.

[atomicEGT]

G-series?

[Ace]

threw my car on the lift at work today. ****ing DP flange is warped and leaks. Oh well.

[theredrocket]

G-series?

Yessir. It's the kia trans I rebuilt over the winter. Put in an Mfactory LSD, new syncros, bearings, seals etc. The syncros I got with the rebuilt kit were cheap, so I bought new OEM mazda ones along with bearings. Get trans rebuilt. Put the thing in the car, it leaks. Frig. Take it out, find tiny hairline crack (maybe 1/2" long) leaking fluid into area where clutch/flywheel are. Take that to have it welded and get it back nicely welded. Put oil in trans. STILL very slowly leaks from around the weld. That's when I almost decided to put it in the garbage, where it belongs lol. Perservered through the frustration and used JB weld and forced it into the tiny cracks around edge of weld. I'll let it set overnight, and see if it leaks tomorrow.

[atomicEGT]

Sell it to someone on here and do an E153 swap haha
