sorry for keepping you guys in the dark.

but, it's something i'm still thinking about right now. so far...my company is not doing to well. so, i shut it down for now. and i'm planning on waiting it out in vietnam until job start getting back to normal. every thing is alot cheaper over there. lawyer and doctor make about almost $300 a month. so, i'm planning on staying there for 2 to 4 years depending on work. and even if i sale my mr2. i know i would always come back with a better mr2 later in life. and if no one willing to pay the price i want for now. then, the 2 will stay with me until i get back. but, keep in mind. this is not a sure plan yet...about selling the mr2. going back to vietnam is a 100% for sure already. i still have 3 more project here to finish up before i can leave. well, that's the up date so far. i will keep you guys infor..

Damn Frankie! Sorry to hear that man. I think business is really tough for a lot of companies. Going overseas is not a bad idea, we would all live like Kings or Queens! Best of luck to you. If possible, try to make it out here before you leave. If not, you can always keep us updated on the forums!

mr.asian.m2 · 11-12-2009, 02:09 PM

yeah..if i do come out there. it will be without my mr2. and i have to fly out there. who want to pick me up at the airport? hahahah...

o6spdracer · 11-12-2009, 02:19 PM

Just send me your itinerary and I'll pick you up. I live pretty close to John Wayne Airport (SNA).

thanks for the offer.

but, at this point. plan is not solid yet. and it would be cool to come out to one of you guys meet and get to drift one of you guys mr2?

o6spdracer · 11-12-2009, 09:54 PM

Sorry man, I can't let you do that! hahaha. I don't even rev past 4k!

Davis · 11-12-2009, 11:46 PM

You can get tail happy in mine Frankie!

So I ordered my master cylinder today and my front strut mounts!

Work today sucked. I sliced my right index finger on a motor mount, I needed 5 stitches.

I started my car up after a week so I can move it for street sweeping, LOTS and LOTS of smoke!!!

honda_bar · 11-13-2009, 02:20 AM

wow, sorry davis

o6spdracer · 11-13-2009, 03:12 AM

Why so much smoke? Did I miss something? Maybe you are on your way to replacing the 5s with a 1mz or did you want a 3vz? It was one of those...you fickle pickle

Davis · 11-13-2009, 10:21 AM

No more Forza for about a week. Actually, I can't even do much for a week..

It's the usual 5S valve seals leaking haha. Actually, I'm gonna go another route with engines, it's not gonna make me any faster but boy is it going to be fun.

o6spdracer · 11-13-2009, 11:48 AM

And what might that be?
