lol .    " Once you think you know everything, you're stupid "
You must make mistakes to get better at anything.   
 
 In this case.   I have been thru all the crap stated in this particular topic. You really have to value every challenge the car throws at you  lol . That's the only way to get better/put up with the damn car. You own the car because you love it.
Think simple.    thats the best way to look at it.  The timing is quite simple, especially with the bs deleted.   
A matter of just lining shit up, and puttn a belt over it.   haha       ( I struggled long enough to say that )

  If I was "forced" to spend a whack load of money on a car....         A highly modified DSM would be one of em.  ;)
