Me too. Back on the old site when the evo bumper picture was on the main page, hehe.

Yup yup....I remember those days as well. Darryl's how-to's sure did help me with installing a lot of parts on my car. I think the ZX2's sturt install page was visited by over a million people

LOL! I know dude, I was like wtf is a ZX2? I already had my sprints installed on the oem struts and was like, I'll get those ZX2 thingys next. I finally bought/installed them like 2 months ago...rofl! Those how-to's helped me out plenty!

I think the beer is to blame man. Want proof?

Classic Darryl beer quotes:



"it was a very easy fix. Took me about 1.5hrs from start to finish and i had time for a few beers "

"welcome! make yourself at home. Kick off your shoes, put your feet up and grab a beer from the fridge. "

"it's been awhile, but i don't recall having all that much trouble changing mine...it's not a "do it with eyes closed" kinda job, tricky, but not all that much of a bitch...or maybe i drowned my sorrows away in beer immediately following getting the job completed and have a permanent mental block about it now... "

"BTW, sex and beer are gimmie's. they are lifestyles not sports you should be doing that anyway"

"OK, so it's a coleman cooler packed with ice, shoved in the corner under the bench...but hey, cold beer is cold beer "

"but we can feel free to chug "

He was even able to make use of empty beer bottles

"1a. get a clear bottle, preferably with a screw on top. Then drill a hole in the top for the rubber tube to fit inside. (the real shadetree way is to use a green or clear beer bottle and jamb a paper towel in the top to hold the tube ) Fill the bottle with NEW fluid so that the rubber tube is sufficiently submerged in the fluid."
