Rotational Force is the Force you apply multiplied by the Moment Arm. You just need a longer lever.
Which means put a longer pipe on the end of it. -------------------- Bust a Deal; Face the Wheel.

With that kind of attitude I'll never buy a Celica again, just to spite you.
Maybe somebody should be more ORGANIZED. -------------------- 2001 Miata LS 5-speed

That leaves 30% of uncertainty though.
If that was remotely nearby I would, but Iowa is kind of far from me. -------------------- 2001 Miata LS 5-speed

I know, it's just too far away. I can't get anyone to take me more than 50 miles out to get a car. There's a nice Miata in Mobile, and now one outside of Chattanooga. Can't get anyone to take me, so meh...

Well, I only have one friend... All family is only free on the weekends, so oh well. Every car I've ever had has been bought within 50 miles of me. I can't seem to stress the fact that really won't cut it now. I'm about || that far from just saying screw it and buying what the hell ever I can find with a manual and two doors. Almost two months now, and everything I've found is either automatic or ragged out.

I hardly log in anymore, last login Today Sept 6 2019, and I was forced just to clarify a post. LOL
If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here... A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within. @llamaraxing in Instagram is the best way to find me. I hardly log here anymore. |

That and I noticed it was posted almost a month ago and the last update was over two weeks? It's probably gone by now. Radiator and exhaust isn't an issue, just finding the oem box that poses a problem.

For the BEAMS? Then it's meant to be, you must get it.
Well, no luck on the Miata but I have found an '88 Corolla FX for $900 and a '93 BMW 325IS for $1,500. -------------------- 2001 Miata LS 5-speed
