RE: Fiji blue conquest update
Who wants to see pics of a car in various pieces and tore apart? lol I'll consier taking some later and get back to you on that one.
As for the BOV issue, Yes it's a good idea for turbo's sake BUT on the other hand for collectability matters it will degrade the value extremely by modding it. Perhaps I'll get a 2nd upper IC hose to install a BOV setup in and remove it when I go to shows or whatnot. But remember this is a 20 year old car almost and when it hits that point it becomes a classic. I believe it's either 25 or 30 years old makes a car antique. Andyou know that a 100% restored classic or antique is going to bring in ALOT more $ than some heavily modded car.

RE: Fiji blue conquest update
It was good to have finally met you and your family Sang. altogether a great family! Your gf kinda freaked me out, I've never heard a girl talk cars before, not to the extent your did anyway. The fact that she helps you, I thought was pretty cool too. Sorry my son was acting up like that, lol. Dude, your mom knows kids! We have 1 dog and and think my son is missing him, I think that's why he wanted to stay and play with yours so badly.
I got to finally see a Fiji blue Quest. I forgot how much better they look in person. Even though the car's motor wasn't complete, the car still looked pretty good (picturing a finished Fiji blue product
). You need to get that red one going now that it's warming up (after the fiji one of course
)

LOL thanks silver. The gf's been a gearhead and I've merely corrupted her further. She'll be getting a white Starion in December most likely. Your son was no problem. he probably is missing the family pet though.
And if you thought the Fiji looked good as it was... The paint is all dinged and chipped and the engine is in pieces obviously. I'm shooting for having her up and running by July. The red one will be AT LEAST another year before she'll be back on the road. Like I said she'll be getting a power build on the internals and I think I'll clear out and send the shell in for a full paint job.
Yeah the fiji will be dead sexy once I get a good set of framerails on her and get her runnin strong. Soon though hopefully soon.
