Stopped in to see Kurt and Bryce at Cruiser Outfitters today while we are out in Salt Lake this week. The temps have been between 50-70 degrees so skiing after around 2pm is like being in mashed potatoes. I broke two free wheel hub assembly bolts by over-torquing them so I got 12 new ones (really just an excuse to stop by). Here are some pictures of their setup.

is his shop in a neighbor hood?
Anyone have a Fedex/UPS/DHL account and can hook me up for discounted tire shipping? Going to run by Fastenal to check their prices too.
The "shop" is at his house with a steel building out back. It was a really cool setup actually considering the space restriction. The only thing I would add is a two post lift.
anyone in Boone able to go look at a car for me?
upping the ante on the monitor gamesmanship. One of our VPs is now using this 34" 21:9 aspect curved monitor instead of dual 22's. You can run as one continuous screen or in dual monitor mode. Just under $1K
I just got a 21:9 ratio - 29" didn't bother with the curved.
It's super nice, 5" smaller than that one - made by LG - and only $300

Still traveling, but will be back in town later this week - depending on location and time I could check out - if you need an in depth inspection I might not be the best set of eyes
Any thoughts on the Celica GT - 2001 model.... Engine by Yamaha, right?
Any reliability issues? Things to look for?
Car I'm looking at has 115k miles - if this was a Toyota motor, I'd have no qualms.... Anyone have any feedback on that?

From Wikipedia:
"The Celica came in two different models. The ZZT230 was powered by a relatively economical 1.8 L 4-cylinder 140 hp (104 kW) 1ZZ-FE engine and the ZZT231 powered by a higher-performance 1.8 L 4-cylinder 192 hp (143 kW) (in Europe and Japan) 2ZZ-GE version, co-developed with Yamaha, the latter featuring a two-step variable valve lift control in conjunction with its variable valve timing."
Toyota Celica - Wikipedia
I did a bunch of research on the 7th Gen Celica as a DD a few months back. The GT had the 1ZZ and the GT-S has the 2ZZ.
I am not quickly finding it, but the 2000 2001 had some issues, but not sure if major or not. Something to look into. I will look more tomorrow.

Thanks for that! It's a 140hp motor. Am I understanding correctly that 1zz is an all Toyota motor? I'm imagining it's just the heads that are Yamaha in the 180hp version?
Two of the techs at ACC drive those. One is turbo'd. I haven't taken a recent pic, but here's one with the engine/trans out so the transmission could be serviced. He powdered all the metal bits peacock blue and finished with a matte black plasti-dip over the black paint. He rebadged it with JDM "Soarer" emblems too. I'll see if I can get a shot this weekend.
