Well.. I posted a couple of days ago, I was going to be getting a stage 1 turbo for my Esi for Xmas.. but, had a change of plans.

My dad surprised me.. hes going to sell my car. Yep.. thats right. He's a used car dealer, I got my 96 Esi at 50k for 3800, it was a good deal, well, im getting another one. Last night he told me I wouldnt be getting a turbo for christmas, at the last auction he went to he boguht a white 96 GS-T 55k, great condition, for 5300. I have a possible buyer for my car for 6000. That leaves me $700 to mod the GS-T :) I get a new car, and my dad didnt have to spend the 1000 on half a turbo kit. Heheheh.

Definately merry Xmas this year.

I hope you have a leash so you can talk your crank for a walk...LOL.....J/K...But crank walk is a serious issue with the GS-T's. If you mod yours a lot you might want to start saving for new tranny too. I know a guy that had a 97 GS-T and he went through three trannys in one year and he was only running 13's. Don't get me wrong though. Some of those GS-T's dont ever get crankwalk. But there is always a chance. And with a dad like yours I don't think it will even be an issue. You cxan just get a new car if it happens.
