WHOW!

Picked up the car today together with Art. First trip back home took it nice and easy. The engine runs GREAT, no doubt about it, its one of the finest points of this car.

Minus points I know of so far are:
- something resonates in the back, could be because of the missing back seat, Leon thought it may have to do with some things not being fastened right and resonating because of it, but it could also suggest more serious problems to the LSD.
- accelerating hard and releasing the throttle jerks to the right abit, although after driving it for awhile I hardly notice it anymore
- body work definately needs work
- rimms need to be replaced or powder coated. I must say the clover rimms are starting to grow on meSmile
- car becomes unstanble 140kmph+, it starts to vibrate in the steering wheel, possible an unbalanced wheel or related problem.
- The bucket seats suck for long distance, the 4 point harness is also not very nice for dialy use but great for track use.

Plus point:
- This thing accelerates like crazy
- This thing handles G.R.E.A.T.! Damn I had loads and loads a fun tonight
- I got the original seats and they look almost newSmile So the bucket seats are going to the RX7Smile
