well i finally got back from the day from hell.
i'll start from this morning. i was looking for a motor for my 240sx. to my dismay, the only ones i found were over 2500. more than i wanted to spend. i also spent over 3 hours looking for information about the whole swap procedure. i only found some articles, not enough though.
strike 1
next, i was optimistic that i would find a vender or two at the e town swap meet. i go there, paid the 8 bucks to get in, looked around for 2 hours and found absolutely nothing. no jdm motors or vendors to be found
strike 2
well i get home to chill and one of my friends call me to tell me that some cars wanted to race. there was an sti and a supercharged vette. so i tell him, i want a piece of the vette. well he never shows up and tells me to meet him monday. oh well. so i decided to go on a little drive up 287 north. actually going the speed limit and just cruising, when i accidently missed my exit for 208( i think it was that or 202) anyway, my friend sees a cop on the grass on the other side of the road. so we know now that when we go back, we need to take it slow. so we do that. we see the cop has already pulled another guy so we keep on driving. than seconds later, i see the cop behind me. and he pulls me over. at this point i was like wtf. i was going 60 in a 65. so he comes up to me and i ask, "did i do anything wrong officer" he said no, but your cover or your plates are illegal. i give him my license, reg, insurance and pba card. so i tell him, sorry officer, i don't drive the car too often, and it was dusty. than he tells me to roll up my windows. and procedes to tell me that tints were illegal. so he goe back to the cop car and about 5 mintues later, he gives me a ticket for tints and freakin takes my pba card. i'm like wtf!!!!!
here;s the worse part. as many people know, my car smells like crap when you are behind it, it'll make you cry (no cats and the smell of fuel)
i try to leave,but my car stalls cause i don't want to warm it up in front of him, fearing that he would come back and fine the crap out of me for no cats. so, i left and he stayed back.

well i thought, this must be the worse day ever!!!!!. but i was WRONG.
i was going to drop me friend off in west orange. so i was driving, when this nice e46 drives by and floors it a little. i was like, it's on. so i follow him to a secluded highway. i get next to him and he goes and i play catch up. i out about 50%, h's leaving me, about a car, hit 70%, i see my boost gauge spikeing at 12lbs. so i stop, and rolll to the light. i say good race an we both leave (think he sprayed, but no ricer excuses for me, i lost and got served) well at this time, i see my car smoking, so i pull in to a huge parking lot. i open the hood, oil everywhere. i blew a line or did something bad. had to wait for a tow truck and finally got home about 15 minuts ago.
soo pissed right now. i almost regret going boost. almost
