I scored a free EJ22 last summer (came with the harness, ECM and all the other guts), and have the adapter plate/flywheel/etc. Still need a D/R 5-speed, rear axle and drive shafts, though.

That would be AMAZING! Read more

Do I have a Brougham story? Yes. Why yes I do. Enough Brougham to fill two volumes, as a matter of fact. Read more

Aw he's just trying to make up for what the Rubber Bandits said to him at the Pub a week earlier. "$%&@ yer Subaru, I've a horse outside..."

I always thought the Fiat Panda "Young" was pretty stupid. My second cousin had one, but doesn't speak English, so pronounced the name "Joong." That made it even stupider.

I'm not so sure than "pure, unregulated capitalism" comes out of China, which is a centrally controlled communist country. I suppose under certain circumstances ... like this one. Read more
