Kyle! ...bro should **** slap ya for even thinking such a thing! Best thing you can do is just take some time off from it, have a couple beer, go get laid, and let life get back to normal. I think the problem is that we get so wrapped up in these projects and then lose face, patience and all sanity. Don't let it get the best of you, don't let it control your life! It's just a car! Just let it be a part of you. Just have patience, it'll come together! It just takes time. We've all had our troubles but it'll work out in the end. I'll tell you what.. PM your address to me and I'll send you mine.. I got a 92 lx 5.0l cam for ya, send down the e303. Once it's up and running you'll never think about the heartache again, but I guarantee you'll be missing that car and counting your losses if it's gone. Take 'er easy bud!

p.s. Slow the **** down! Leave it for the back roads and the track.

Just do what I did....

Park the car for 6 months, rip the engine out, put $3000 into it... and wonder where all your parts are.

god I cant wait till its running again!

the thing is its retarded things im getting pulled over for! lol, cop said i was squeeling tires and driffting a corner..... i dont know bout you but have you ever tried drifting a car with 275/60r15 mickey thompson rubbers on the back, and a full drag suspension? its pretty F-ing HARD/doesnt work

and i wasnt going to get rid of the car completely, just all the go fast goodies, and use the car for a dd. Then i can go out after a lil more savings and buy a car i really want like a cobra or a mach 1, yet still have the fox when i realize the mistake i made and start all over again! lmfao.
supposed to go to the track on sunday, got the 2 step working, so if this thing doesnt performe well then im def parting it out no question asked.... maybe ill buy a EVO ..... hahahajk jk jk i swear
