Then my motor blew :( the pistons hit the valves, because the cam gear bolt was loose :(
so my car was sitting for a good half a year because we were saving up money for the new engine..
That was my senior year of high school.. I was so bummed because I never got to take it to school to show off.
So i was "EMO" one day and decided to sand down the whole car (stoopid me), so now my wagon looked like shiit and didnt run :( lmao
anyways we got the money we needed and bought the new motor(d15b2), and dropped it in... and repainted the car(rattle canned)

    Real nice. Hopefully I can check it out in a future event. Have you thought of painting the bumper grills black? I think it would add more contrast to the front end.

    lol yes it was free, the hommie had clear coat hardener and alot of white car paint laying around, so he just painted it :) i wanted my wagon red though :( but im not complaining because it was free :D
  • danzdanz Wagonist
    always a bonus.


    did you guys do any body work first? it really looks clean. but then again, thats why white paint is so good. it makes everything look good.

    you should see my white wagon. it looks good in pics. but thats it. hahah
