yea, im just under 6'2 and its pretty hard to get into but once im in, its okay. when the rex and the fit are done, i am going to save up and see whats out there. hopefully i can find a car for super cheap with a dead engine so i can do something insane to it. i just know i want a MR as my next car no matter what.

drop a k20/k24 into an elise.


you should have bought a rivet gun to make that work so much easier.

i used this rivet gun


but still, that was about 80 rivets and each one take about four pumps and the last two pumps you need to use some muscle to pop it off.
