People need to see how ridiculously easy it is to change the plugs/wires/and coil packs on your car.
Here is what happened to one of the new coil packs when i took it out. as you can see accessing the area is very easy.

the rx-7's and evo's are taking over!

(sadly, same thing is happening at the 626 meet, which started out as a rotary meet. but, we've been over-run by evo's now...)

it's because the 8 is no longer "new" and more people are picking up the newer Evo X.

Beach meet was tons of fun, except for the little inconvience of almost having to kick the **** out of some retards who spray painted Dozer's wall.
You should have seen how quickly some of us went RUNNING out of the garage and hurdled the fence to confront those guys. GOOD times.

i figured it out (old news) but in the tuner industry people dont keep their cars long becase they make all the mods they can to their cars run out of things to do and get bored and then pick up a newer car and start over.

i know the performance of the zr-1 is top notch. but, to me it's still just another ugly corvette with more this and more that. just never liked the styling of the vettes. and, i doubt i will ever change my mind. just not my cup of tea.

yeah but the picture i posted does not look like a vet so your are making judgement based on past experiance. yeah it is another corvette to me and they are alright but it is up their with the GTR on price vs performace.
