I bought this car last winter for 400 dollars. ive gotten ballsy and its registered as my daily driver. Ive redone the head gasket and repaired the exhaust. Ive also change the front shocks and replaced the spings with eibach springs on the front along with new tires.

heres todays damage, didn't know it was this bad. oh well. Ive gotta get it all fixed by monday 6am. :)

seam sealer hides a lot of nasty when water gets behind it.

car is great on the highway, after you get up to speed.

I switchedd out my TBI valve cover for a turbo one since its has a better gasket style. (4 piece cork and rubber vs one piece rubber.) anywho the turbo cover is missing this breather tube that goes back to the airbox before the filter, I assumed this wasnt required and proceeded to pressurize the crankcase and blow out all the main seals. woohoo!

Fel-pro makes a one peice rubber gasket for the N/A 2.2/2.5. you need VS50205T i had this on my n/a 88 daytona and it was the last gasket i ever bought for the valve cover
