And we got some pics! Yes, they are a little dark. I must say that Wylie has one of the cleanest 85 GL's in this area. The Rikens are nice, but the pics do it no justice. So here it goes:

 

 

 

Pics look great! ( You'll have to pardon my filthy car, I just drove 1200 miles from Van, B.C. to Oregon and back ) I just got home now, had to stop at the duty free store. I'll get mine up tomorrow morning.

 

Here are some pics from my cam:

 

Here's a killer shot of Sarin's!



And some Oregon coast Maxin' just outside of Newport.

 

nice to see some 2nd gens that are taken good care of and aren't broken down heaps like all the ones i see around here (mine included in the 2nd cattegory )

 

nice pics guys!! I really need to update my pics....which I will do once I put springs on Sarin, what bulbs are you running?

Oh I had to mention....I sure love how my Camber goes in an out alignment on the front wheels!

is this camber problem related to your 5-lug conversion, S?

 

Possibly. Or the fact that camber bolts suck. See the funny part is it goes in and out of adjustment...usually when it goes out, it's when I'm going reverse. Going forward it seems to return to a more normal setting. The passenger side front is still slightly off, so another camber bolt will need to be installed on that, just haven't had much time. But honestly, I think part of my problem is I need to just rebuild my front end. I need new bushings, half-shafts, tie-rod ends, steering rack boots....that's probably why i'm having the problem.

stay outa my state you hippies, dont make me sick the ashlanders on you!

free trade and maple syrup...sheesh.



i think i am kidding

 

Uhhh. Who you calling a hippie you redneck?

I think I'm kidding too.

 

redneck is southern, its mostly freakin cloudy here.

also 95% of all meth is reportedly through here at opne time or another, where that statistic came from i do not know. the other statistic is 1 in every 5 houses is growing or making controled substances, and some of the houses that have been busted are really nice the po are pretty ignorant here

 

lol, I got a buddy that lives in Bend that we call a redneck.

Trust me no one wants to go to Oregon!

But to race its worth it.

Ill stay out of oregon if you stay out of cali!

 

only thing in california is crackers that say you cant put a different engine in your car, now thats a load of bull *** crap

 

Bah, I'd go back to the Oregon coast anytime. The scenery is breathtaking, the seafood is excellent, the dunes are a blast, and best of all no tax so shopping is a bonus! And seeing as it only took an hour and 45mins. to get home from Sarin's, I most likely will be paying him some more visits in the future as well.

 

hehe! I am closer than you think!

S

 

Sarin, where were those pics taken? Bellevue Square?


Looks good

 

I think it was Alderwood Mall, in Lynnwood.

 

Yup it was Alderwood.

Well, after my short visit with Sarin, I came away with his old FSTB, and a CD2 engine detail kit. ( Thanks again, Sarin! ) I did use the degreaser, and boy did it work wonders! It really cleaned it up good, and I have the FSTB installed. ( So far It doesn't seem to hit ) I have yet to use the engine dressing yet though, because seeing Sarin's engine bay inspired me to pretty up mine a bit too. I'm hoping to track down some blue loom this week and finish up my engine bay detail so I can post up some pics. I also changed my intake around a bit too, ditching the stupid intake muffler box and going with a sort of mid-pipe only setup with the filter still in the engine bay. My butt-dyno could feel an immediate torque difference without that box, definately an hour well spent.

Oh, BTW, I don't think you ever got my real name, Sarin. It's Wyatt.
