I told you 1st and 2nd gear is useless, unless you want to break something......sux...sorry..

Thats why I only play 3rd-5th..just not worth breaking something.... I would change the gears and upgrade if there is such a thing..

If you want to play G-50 is the only way to go...and $$$$$$ gelt. Resistance is futile... :/

I know, and it's something I totally knew would rear it's ugly face one day. But I'm not really sad other than it's perfect weather for boosting lately. I really will miss driving it till I sort it all out too. I don't want to spend much, at least not all in one simple transaction so my options will be to get another 915 of unknown history and slowly add up all the bits to make it more stout or save up ore cash and get a 930 and all the ancillary parts to swap over. Or save and hope to see a short bell 930 box one day and do that swap. hmmmmm Now I'm sad.

I've been following your thread and your "getting in there". I'm starting to wonder if you want to drive it. Obviously your doing it right and all. Your car is mean.
I love my car and it's a rolling project. I don't ever intend to take it to a bare tub. Maybe another car while I enjoy mine.

I am planing on driving the wheels off of it. =) I built a Dinan M3 and flogged it until I found a weak link... fixed it, then flogged it some more. Half the fun of having a high performance car is building it.

I am in the bodywork stage, so not much to post except a punch of bondo dust. Ha!
