I ordered new injectors this week, So im guessing I will get them very soon. By the time they arrive I should be ready for them. SOoooo. lets say 2 weeks tops, Ill be burning some rubber.. I tell you what I really want. Ive allways wanted my car to be in a nice shoot. Never got the chance of meeting a good photografer that is into cars in this area.

I used to have bump steering problems. I had to redo my whole steering setup and now is like a charm... Car is indeed sitting VERY low. So im raising it a little and selling my 18" wheels and getting 19's ( not that that's going to help that much, but its something). Plus I want 11" on the back

Almost done with my car and the rolla is comming along very nice. Theres a lot of things just in planning but its comming along. Engine is finnaly in the US, should be ready for pickup this week and we cant wait to have it in the car. Im hoping for really good numbers on the dyno and on the track. lets see how our two carritos do.

Hey Angel, Ive always enjoyed watching your progress. Hopefully the t56 works out with that rear end and no more snapping (knock on wood.) Nice work!
