    Daily Driver

    I use mine as a DD, but not in the white stuff.. :nono I've tried once, but the rear just spun and i slid sideways, slowly, towards the curb with nothing i could do about it. Since then: White stuff: Car stays put. You can use it as a DD, but as others have said, the car is old (33 now) and...

    Question: 82 CE Does not start sometimes - Gremlins?

    Okay, here is the update you all been waiting for :L Regarding the starter: Thanks kpic, saw the shimming video, but without a lift, definitely not something i can do.
