Does the LX still have tail pipes on it? If so, are you interested in getting rid of them?
Yeah I remember the question about the clutch. The clutch was practically new, had been installed less than 6 month before the accident.

As far as tail pipes, yes it's got them (with flowmasters). Only bad thing is that the ignorant person that owned the car before me had the pipes welded so it's one solid piece from the cats back.

I must say the car looks a lot better than it did when you first got it. Especially since you cleaned the seats and put new fog lights in it.

Re: Additions to the GT

I'm glad it's coming along well, and I'm glad I could help out some.

Re: Additions to the GT

He's up and running.


Drove it around the neighborhood and with the exception of the throttle sticking and the small vacuum leak things seem to be running well.

Here is a pic of the finished product.....couldn't win any pretty/clean awards but it's a lot better looking than what I started with.

We also ended up doing a complete smog pump delete.

Re: Additions to the GT

Looks good, glad you got it running again.
