well, i could start the poke the penguin part of it, at least there is a flash for that http://www2.gamesville.lycos.com/html_poke/poke_penguin.htm

owww, my liver im going to look into historic tags for it, since its over 20 years old i can get em now and they lower insurance rates and no emmisions inspections!!!

the ea82t isnt so bad if you take your time and do it right, but where is the fun in that. id like to play with an ea81t, that could be some fun.

eh, its nopt my car anymore, lol, i should tell my friend about that i guess.

EEEPP!!!

possibly, but i think that my girlfriend is going to get the temporary registration on it this week. but i really need to call the number on the sitation and apologize to the guy l eft a very angry message with at the city. the whole feeling like crap from chemo and then having that sprung on me, yeah, i blew up and got pissed and left a rather tude message on dude's voicemail. thats totally not who i am or what i am about, verymuch out of charactor for me. i usually just break stuff around me, i never go off on anyone, i hate chemo, its changed me, and i blame the drugs.

dont encourage him, he is a lot bigger than me, it hurts when he pokes the timmy:dead: on a more irritating note, the city of frederick has declaired my brat to be an abandoned vehicle since its not tagged and thus an eye sore that must either be registered or removed in 10 days. god i hate frederick, at least the city. looks like if i can manage to get temp tags, aka, transfer the registration form the rx to the brat, ill have 30 days to get the rust repaired to get the car past inspection. i can do a bit of the work in the driveway, but when it comes to the point of removing the entire floor on the driver side will take some help.

yeah, but it was fun.

hmmm, mine had a blow out like that but it still worked. thats odd. anyone know where to get replacents for that?

basically thats what i love about it, that and the sound of the boxer engine.

can tell you that the cooling issue isnt the thermostat, i am thinking that the intake manifold might be buggered. definatly needs shifter bushings and better rear springs. the rust in the rx is nowhere near as bad as the rust in my brat. at least the floor is intact in the rx. and its still my car till you get the title:lol: but i know its in good hands, ive seen the jeeps you have restored.

my brat now has 15" pugs:banana: those i would not let go with the rx

i personally prefer a bit thicker than that for flooring, lol. iam hoping to actually make this thing better than it was new once i am done, granted, yes, it will take time, but i am willing to put the workl into it if i am physically able. i dont care how it looks underneath when i am done as long as its not rusted anymore. might not be as pretty as it was new, but i fully intend on rebuilding the floorpan of the car and reinforcing the body where possible.

i do hate rust. this thing is going to need a new floor to start, then rockers, but the suspension mounting points look good, the rear wheel wells are in rather good shape and there is very little body rust on the sheet metal, the ony rust on the body is on the passengerside rear fender. im going to get out tomarrow and try to get some better pics of the rust, there is a lot of it. i might even try to fix some of it ifi can. need to find some sheetmetal thats thick enough to repair the underbody.

thats good to hear, thanks. hey, do yo know if the rx front brakes are actually better than the brat brakes, and do the bolt up? i know im going to get the rear disk parts, but might as well upgrade the fronts if i can. i guess i sohuld worry about the rust first and then make sure i can get it running, needs a tune up something bad.

thats good to hear, hope to see you there, maybe my brat will be drivable by then.

huh?? the brat i am getting is a d/r 4spd in it already, so if i understand waht you are saying, i am lost, lol.

hmm, you do realize there is a bit of a time gap there, you are three hours behind, when would a good time to call be? or you could send me a pm with the info if you dont want to post it up here.

ive been looking around and cant seem to find much, but i am getting a brat and am going to want to swap in a 5spd tranny out of a rx that i am getting parts from. if i remember correctly, the rx and brat have different splinecounts from each other. has anyone else use a rx 5spd and rear lsd in a brat? can the cups be swapped between the axles or will i need to maybe swap out the hubs on the brat for those from the rx? the transmission is also the full time 4wd, dual range with diff lock, i know i need the switch for it, and there is like a vaccuum actuator under the hood, but is there anything else ill need to swap over to make it work in the brat? or is there a simple way to hook up the switch and make it work? thanks tim

wouldnt be too hard to do, ive got enough free time to attempt it, but nothing to test it on, yet. if anyone locally has some spare linkages and is willing to try, i am willing to cut and weld, i have nothing else to do for the next five months.

looking nice. how well does it run?

hmmm, no good. do make sure to nuetralize the acid and clean the hell outta it. you dont want that to cuase a rust issue down the line.

if you are looking for borla headers for the 2.2, go to www.nopionline.com, they are the only place ive seen em on a regular basis.

im doing fine, aside from nausia and fatigue. your getting a pm.

hey everybody, its that time again, time fore a cookout with me, your friendly neighborhood subyrally. once again i am looking to host a cook out here in frederick maryland. its looking like saturday august 25 will be a good time to try this year. im going to need help with things this year. i will definatly be needing people to bring food and drink this year. since i am slightly unemployed this time around and going through chemo, i will need as much help as possible. i will be able to bring a little bit of stuff, but i cant supply nearly as much as i did the last couple of years. the closer it gets to the cookout, the more ill get things in order and the more details ill be able to provide. as soon as i have more details, ill update the thread, please let me know if you can make it and what you can bring. and as always, anyone with a good mood and nice personality is welcome, no grumpiness or ill will need attend.
