SIR is in the Kent/Seattle area and I couldn't give exact directions, I got mine off their website last year (which has seemed to be gone now ) and am gonna have to find new directions before the 30th... TNT = Test and Tune- basically street/grudge night anyone who has the 20 or 25 bucks can go race. Its tons of fun and I hightly recomend it And don't forget car pictures soon!

Hey, what color is the TA? Sounds totally sweet, and w/ 50,000 miles on the clock you must almost never drive it.
I wasn't aware the Recardo seats where available in 85, love to see some pics of them

Come join us at the TnT if you can, it'll be a lot of fun even if you just come hang out!

Hiyas AmorgetRS !

The Recaro T/A was dropped in 85 but the seats were still an option. Im really stoked about my ride, it will be a weekend cruiser.
It is black with tan interior and gold 16x8 cast aluminum rims, P245-50 meats, T-tops, remote hatch, performance sound option and other cool stuff.

QwkTrip, I will be taking some detailed pics soon.

Here is the URL for a pic, its not the best but will do for now.

Thanks to all for the warm welcome, I propose a ride to Mt Rainier this summer !
Im right on the way up the hill

Don

Demon: kinks such as fire coming out of the carb, no hood, and a postive battery terminal corroded to the terminal??

Rich: Yeah, true, even the Firebirds had problems covering that stink! Though it was funny how it wanted to keep running!

No fire from the carb the last couple of days even though I didn't do **** to it

Hood isn't needed when theres no clouds in the sky

And the battery still works don't it?

Hummm, maybe there was something jammed in the carb other something that got unjammed? Glad to hear it isn't trying to start your car on fire anymore!
