I bought an 88 Suzuki Samurai in October.
Should be a fun off-road truck.

Probably all I will do at first is a bunch of armor stuff-gas tank, t-case, rock sliders, cage. Swap to 5.14 gears with mini spool in the rear.
Re-do the brakes, new cheap shocks (may even skip this) and get the engine working flawlessly (since getting stranded in the woods would be REALLY bad.

I figure if it's something we like I'll get more radical with it.

AFAIK Sgarnett and Judd are the only ones here that are remotely interested in something like this.

That's the way is should be done. We started by trying to join the first team and they were pretty uptight about making the team too big. The new team, when I was captain, started off that way but we had to concentrate on building at this point. After that we were combined with the first team and their uptight attitudes.

Before the advisor really pissed me off in a series of e-mails I said I would work on the swing arm as my senior project. Now that the design is done I don't even care if they use it or not. I finally got some kind of credit for all my work on the baja, I just want to graduate and concentrate on the autocrosser.

I swear almost anything would piss off this advisor, my co-captain someone in the ME department for money and said that the IE made parts for us, dean gave us something, alumni tossed in a few hundred, and 2 days later he wasn't captain anymore and I was ordered to get someone else to represent the team for his meeting. Well I was working full time and he didn't even respond to my e-mail asking for another meeting time so I could attend.

The sad part is that he is one of the better professors at the school and after taking a class with him you would think he'd be the best SAE advisor. Guess that shows how bad the rest of the professors are.
