Damn Justin, I dont think i can ever understand how you can even let it go. After soo much work and projects. It takes a lot of courage to let go, but one thing that always remains is Respect, and you got a lot and lots of it from me. You stood out when u had the hatchie and you still do now cause you had it. It was a piece of creation dude. :)

Wow that is an inspriration to us all. I've been fixing my car up in my shop at school for the last week and damn even after that's all done I still need to do a lot more to come close to matching up with some of you.

I love my Weber that's all I can say!

I remember back when i found your website back in 1998 or so i was ready to sell my car for a newer car since parts were hard to come by. But you definatly helped me with creating my turbo setup and i almost did an A20A3 Turbo but i knew it wasnt going to be cheap. Needless to say my B20A is 80% done thanks to a lot of your knowledge and help over the years. I miss the days of hearing about your car when it was on the road. Damn time flies i cant believe iv been a member for so long.

So did you end up selling it? or did something go wrong with the car?

If you sold it... go buy it back.. lol.

That was one of the first 3g's I saw when I came to this site, and helped me realize the potential these cars really have.

that just brought some tears into my eyes.
Justin, your car was inspiration to me.
that was one killer car.

If my memory serves me right, the reason the car was sold is because it was taking too much time and too much money. the car was sold in pieces, rather than a whole piece. The rear window was Lexan during the last days of its existance. It was something unusual about that car from the day i stumbled upon it. and Justin was not a MOD back then :D

Another thing that was a problem was the california emmisions its not legal in california to have what he had done to his car so he would have to return his car to stock form every test unless he had another way around it. I bought some of his stuff to use on my B20A like the charge pipes and custom fuel rail bracket. Its to bad cause that car was an inspiration for a lot of us and he did a very nice job of getting the best stuff for his car. And turbos are not cheap trust me i have thousands in my project already and im still not done yet.

You did just about every mod known at this time, imcluding the rear disk brake conversion. I would be soooo pissed off. What exactly happened to it?

i've always loved your car since the first time i saw it, i loved the drop. what suspension components did you have on it, how big of a drop did you have, how big were your wheels?

what kind of numbers where you putting down with that beast!?

RobT5580
03-31-2004, 10:07 AM
He never made it to the dyno and i know one reason was he couldnt find a clutch that could hold up at the PSI he was running. I wish he did get a dyno run in because im sure the numbers would have been very impressive.

more than you ever will PAL!!!! :mad: heheh just kidding.

The website used to be a lot different with lilttle pics that cannot be clicked on and made bigger or links that actually worked, but later it was much more explained and it was much better. Now the site does not even work :(
