my 3.2 swap, was Re: [Shotimes] New Jersey... was: Subarus and stuff

[Ron Porter]

I have new pads & rotors that will go on the car when the temps hit the 40s.
The way things are looking, it may not be until Spring!!

Two weeks ago, it was 50 on that Monday and I was expecting the rotors. They
showed up on Tuesday, when it was in the 20s, and we haven't even seen 32F
since then!! My old garage space heater can't handle that!!

Luckily I have 2K miles before the next oil change.....

No, not a daily driver anymore.  The car that is being parted out in the 
driveway is donating a few items to the car in the garage so we can use it 
as the track/fun car.

My '93 is no longer stored in winter, it has become my daily driver.

But warmer weather would be ideal by far!!
