Man, I can't thank you guys for all the help you've given.

The 240 needs to have the timing set and coolant bled. After that, it should be gravy.

Just so happened the WORST possible vaccum line wasnt hooked up. That was the source of the running like shittyness. Trying to fix the line, I ended up breaking it. Me and Peter rode to my house. I was able to locate the hose on the other intake manifold and snagged it. We then drove to Justin's house and saw how it was routed. Got back to the car, used the spot light to heat up and soften the hose, and installed it. Install only took about 30 minutes. Thankfully I figured out that by removing the intake manifold support bracket I was able to install part of the hose from the underside.

So anywho, tomorrow the little stuff gets done and I go for a ride.

Thanks again everybody :cheers2:

It's wierd to see JESS thanking other people. :D

Fucking right man! i knew there had to be an easier way to reach those vacuum lines.. Is the car leaving us and, if so, is it coming back and, if so, when?

Yeah, I'm pretty dead-set on leaving it in SC. I need to focus on getting out of debt, and saving for a house. Having that car around is no help. I'll miss driving it, hell as it is now I drive it about any chance I get, but its a tough love thing. Just gotta start being more responsible and thats the first step. I'm old.

wow that was a wierd post, i didn't expect that response at all.

If you want, we shoot video of it and call it snow white and put U2 in the background haha. I totally understand what you said and i think you are making a very smart decision. You are not old you are just big boned

There has to be another way! We could bury it in a box in your backyard and youd forget all about it but then the one day that your putting a new swimming pool in... BAM Turbo S13. See, it'd be fun.

(I think my brain's gone after so much studying yesterday :O )

I loved that video. Which reminds my black ass...what's the deal with the latest video? Do we have more shit to shoot? I know I never got to drift for ya or anything, but do you have enough clips to make a pretty sweet vid, or will the shooting continue sometime when we get back from the "give me my presents bitch" holiday.

Glad to hear you got the car running!
I think you should bring the car back next semester. Whenever something breaks or you need to spend money on it then we'll take your keys from you. :) Or you could rent the car out to me. Then you'll get out of debt and the car would have a good home! :P
Good luck with your road trip!!

Well if you can wait until 8am Wednesday morning, Dec 29th then I'll have the tC and we can do some shooting :D

P.S. Hazan, would you be willing to take some bitch-ass pictures of the tee-see when I got the shocks, springs, and sway bar installed?
