What city are you planning on moving to? Cops vary quite a bit by area.Two plate state. In my experience they don't pull you over just for that but they will ticket you for it if they have you pulled over for something else.As Far as smog issues I've never been to a referee so I can't...
If FP is recommending the 3052 I think I would just go with that. Of course I already happen to have one so take it with a grain of salt.As others have stated I think it's a lot harder to learn to drive with a fast car as it does foster the development of bad habits such as not...
I've been wondering the same thing.My concern with the Evo pistons is the offset for the wrist pin. When installing the pistons in a DSM engine the piatons are 180 degrees off.
I've got a few I'll send in tomorrow(gotta find the CD's) Got some nice ones of me at Thunderhill and a really good one of me in the corkscrew at Laguna Seca.

The girdle helps to keep the main bearings from fretting. This is a problem more common with the 100mm cranks. I think it's cheap insurance for $150.00. It's not mandatory just a good idea. Call Sean over at Full Function and ask his advice. He's got way more experience at this than me. PM me...
Do me a favor and get that main girdle. It's really best to give it to the machine shop with the engine so they can line bore the block with the girdle installed. You'll be happy you did it later.Look forward to seeing you at the track too. Be nice to not be the only DSM beating up on the...
