Hit 89 here today, low 90's next 2 days. Getting me prepared,I'm off to Orlando on Monday for a week...work. Will get to visit my oldest son,so I don't mind even though I'll be away on my B-day.
Tried to install my prothene mounts in tonight...no go.
You HAVE to remove the engine-to-motor mount pieces(those large aluminum pieces) to remove the stockers. You just can't jack the motor up high enough to get the hydro-mounts out. I'll take it into the hanger on Sat & get them installed then.
I did cut mine down 1/4" on a bandsaw & then polished up afterwards, piece of cake.
Did get the sequentials & front black corner lenses in the other day.
Scott,
For the upcoming show in Dublin, I'll probably be stopping by Friday after work & then go in again on Sat.
Tom,
Since you're now a moderator
, is the site getting bogged down lately?
Some days I can't get in, not my connection,everywhere else, bam I'm in & up right now, but here it either takes a bit or just not @ all. As an example, I've tried 3 times to submit this reply & no go????
Mark,
Welcome & lets hear from you some
dly, the actual studs or the nuts? Nuts are 13mm.

Tom,
Tried 3 times to post,nothing happened.Opened a new window, couldn't get back onto site. Now I've got 3 posts. This is the problem I've been having here on & off for the past week.
The site seems to hang real bad @ times.

It is hanging really bad at times........ seems like alot of it started when they added the gallery, which is now hosting like 10,000+ pictures.

Hey everyone. Not real new to the site but I haven't posted a whole lot either. I am in Iowa. Wondering where some good places in the Midwest to go for tuning. Unfortunately I cant find anything in state. Willing to drive for someone good. Oh I have an xCal2 if that makes a difference.

Good one John!
On a different subject. Is it my imagination or are the bugs bigger and juicier this year.
Washed the car last night and drove to work this morning and it looks like the front of the car and windshield has been paint balled. Geez.
