Hmmmm, long awaited throat-clearing. Nippon-made goodness.....Just very bad pics: And it was effortlessly self-aligning. If only all parts are of this precision, fit & finish.....
The now-extinct Cross. It offered no installation resistance whatsoever. Everything just fitted perfectly. The sound, just right! & of course, the psychological 50hp power gain, PRICELESS:biggrin5:!!!!
I finally bought that new vacuum pump I have been needing. Probably waited a little longer than I should have, but at least nothing went wrong. Site said they should ship it by tues, so Ill have it before the end of next week. Yay for wrench time!!!
Today I went and had my car inspected and emission tested (PA) and I passed. The cool part is I am now emissions exempt because I drove it less than 5K last year. :ihih:
Great news that your MINI is emissions exempt. A shame that you have to lock her away and not motor for most of the year. :frown2: You need more excuses to motor.

So not MINI but BMW and Kids. My phone rings, I had just got up, no coffee yet. It my oldest son. " dad I had a wreck" words you don't want to hear come from your kids. It seems there was a broken down van in the right lane, no flashers on. It was right after a small corner to the right and over a slight crest. My son looked left to change lanes but didn't see that the van was stooped. He tried to avoided it. I got there and asked if the police had been called my son said no the other driver was an illegal alien. The owner was on the way. I talked to the owner of the van he wanted his workers to move the van. They did we flowed them to a parking lot. Then they pulled out and disappeared into a trailer park. There are places I do not go unprepared. Went home got my son back on the road. I don't think it will buff out?no that's not me in the photo.
