As far as the intercooler piping...... it came with the car when I bought it. And when s/c came out to look at my car he mentioned it was a kit that was available at one time???

isn't the Honda Repsol a 1000? Or is there a 600 version too? IMO the R6 is the sexiest 600 and they rev to the moon!

i thought the repsol remake was a 600... i might be wrong. but yeah i love the R6 they are so nimble and sleek looking... like narrower than most bikes and light looking. i fell in love with them when i went to my first street race (didnt race just watched) and two guys that worked at DGY showed up on identical R6's and raced freakin fast as hell... lit up the tires with out effort and just blew flames out like nuts... even thouhg they mistreated the bikes like over revving them doin a damn burn out i still fell in love with that bike

How's the body of the car itself? Rust wise. I've actually been considering find a decent priced good condition body to swap my 83' L28ET into. Also the lower front looks like it's been bent up some. Did it see an accident or something?

$1450!!!
Well I just sold the T-5 swap and the msa type II body kit so the price is lowered to $1450!!! But I am still partin it out, and if someone maybe wants the engine I might be persuaded??? I would however like to sell the engine as the very last peice so Its still driveable, maybe not comfortable but none the less driveable.
