the car was running good,, and the ETs were getting lower.. then i moved to the city with my wife.. and started to park the car on the street from time to time.. and this happened!!:(


noo , i didn't feel like taking my car apart and busting up the interior.. s**t got jacked!!






it was recovered a month later, with 90% of the parts but all the parts were off the car , and neatly stacked!!:?:

me and my wife spent 2 hours putting the motor back in the car ( which was only on by the back bracket and a jack).. thanks baby! :-*

i first started by pulling the old motor and selling the block ( high compression)

very clean, hope you learned your lesson and bought an alarm, and got a censor for the hood. my buddy had a carbon fiber hood, and the assholes broke it down the center just to get at the GSR.
looks good though
