Welcome to the boards. Just so I save you some time, headache, and flaming, please make sure to read the forum rules and to use the search feature before asking any question. . Abiding by these two things will make you more friends than enemies.

Impress us oldtimers by asking us something completely original. I promise to mark you out of 10 for originality.

Example: "Should I use synthetic oil?".........1

"Are the diff gears case hardened?"..........10

You need a V8 mate!!

Cocktail preference.....well, since this thread has a Hawaiian theme, I admit to being partial to Mai Tai's. Especially in Hawaii....

I want a motor to pull apart and play with. I bought a polished 13B rotor the other day.
I'm keeping an eye on the local classifieds.......a $200 Renesis would be just peachy .

You can make me one should I ever find my way to Florida. Do they still shoot tourists there? I'm aware they changed the plates on the hire cars to deter fender bender muggings....
