Ok so yesterday, I had a hell of a drive 6 hour drive to Pittsburgh (got stuck in rush hour downtown traffic and got lost, good thing my friend truck has GPS in it), then another 6 hour drive back, did not get home till 2am...then unloading, returning the trailor and truck plus almost forgetting about V-Day...

but all worth it IMO












it needs minor stuff and cleaning, but i pretty much am not going to use it for D/D, just a fun, sleeper, track car

also its something about green with me now...IDK, maybe i need to change my favorite color...

I want to thank yamaha for everything, great guy

Also dont ask me why my wife is in the photo looking like that

that's badass, way to go! ullllltimeate sleeper. sometimes i wish i just kept my car stock and turboe'd the hell out of it so i could beat some camry's HAHA. i love the 90's hyundais. i dunno, maybe it has more to do with my childhood and fantasizing about having one from back then but for the cheap POS's old accents are, they are wonderful designs. nobody said you can't love a beater.

no CEL's on it or anything? how can you get that past emissions?

Myron got one hell of a deal IMO on the car. It needs some wiring but that is thanks to the dumbass who attempted to install a boost gauge for me. Myron knows my cars and he will have it up and running 100% in no time.

It's been minimized.. that's for sure. No PS, No A/C, no cruise Where is the wiper motor?

It looks better then most turbo'd engines. It needs some organization of the cables and vacuum lines though. Then a good wire brushing will take care of the rest of it. Mad props on that vehicle. That thing looks like alot of fun.
