since aug of 2002 i bought BRAN NEW 6th gen i been abusing the **** out of it...i dont know how the motor blew on me..but toward the end the motor would eat motor oil like it was its job, i would change the oil and it would only piss out like 3 QT on a good oil change...

the motor was swaped out by me and the help of my uncle.

next thing i wanna do is a 5spd swap but im really not that handy with **** like that.

thats exactly what happened to my engine. it was chugging oil before cylinder #1 told me to go screw. now the new engine runs awesome. you can't beat $500 for an engine with 19K on it. that with new belts, clutch, etc, and it runs so sweet. granted its no H22, but its enough to make me happy, and its enough to get me into plenty of trouble. :D

I'm just lovin the fact that my car moves again! It sat in my driveway for about 5 months in case you guys didnt know. I know it won't be fast unless i turbo it again, but even then, it'll pull like a mid-14 run, so why do it? i'm just gonna enjoy my nice-looking/sounding/panty-dropping machine haha. i couldn't care less about street racing anymore. I just hope it passes inspection today, so i can lower it back down and put my rims back on. i'll post a pic in a little bit...so ugly right now. btw-thanks you guys for the kind words!
