This isnt one of threads where im like yay ^.^ turbo. nope.
i was heading on I-5 South to Portland, OR for a job interview. (im setting the scene)
minding my own business, i have the stereo cranked loud and just cruising @ about 75 mph.
so September 23rd @ 8:34 A.M. - i destroyed a rod, the weak point of the 7afe thumbsdown.gif

all i have to say is - thank god for AAA tongue.gif. They towed my car to my house, and i got a rental car to continue my journey and go thru-out my weekend.
--Now, im car-less. I need a little help trying to find a replacement engine (preferably 7afe) not looking to swap for higher horsepower (ie 3sgte or 20v)
I live in Northwest Oregon - and i've spent many hours looking and searching for something not rediculous priced like 1,500 for a 7afe rolleyes.gif.
Any help is appreciated.

the 1/4 doesnt have patience for a ST.... so we make them ST-T's so atleast we'll sound good going slow.

I'll check the wrecking yards around here. I was at one last week that had an ST (at least I think it was). Most of them have front end damage so no telling what the engine is like. It wouldn't be too far to take it down to you on a weekend.
