LOL, the last time Matt and I were out in the vert we destroyed the transmission in it. Like seriously loud BOOM! But he still beat that turbo hatch.

You are a kill joy. Is there anything I post you can't make a negative out of.

Well, I understand why you think that right now since you arent happy with what is going on with your car right now and you're understandably pissy, but that wasn't my intent to be negative, was just telling funny story from yet another one of mine and Matt's adventures. Only us two goofballs could manage to take out a bullletproof car and destroy it on one rare night it went out. It was scary and hilarious all at the same time.

well the trans obviously wasnt bulletproof! hahaha I told my dad if there is a gd weak link, Ill find it. I break that car almost everytime I drive it. I broke his "built AOD" 3 times, broke the stock AOD under warranty twice, blew the stock motor up, rebuilt it on my own in a few days, blew it up the very next day after it was tuned... it's just a nightmare of a car. The complete opposite of the 86... that thing WONT break, even when I try to blow it up, it's like what else you got!?

Luckily all it did was lose the input shaft. I had a new one installed, and it's as good or better than new (till it does it again!) ...
