The Taco Garage was a little busy today. Leo swapped out his D-Specs and swapped tires with Luis.

Highlight of the day was the pizza and Heineken mini keg!

Leo sprawled out in the trunk


lunch time!


special guest.. Leo2 with his Legend Lime (buyer of my UDP's)


another Tom sighting...

On my way home from Cars & Coffee I spotted a GTR. It was probably of three GTR's that we saw at the show. I'm surprised how big that car is, looks more like a sports sedan than a sports car. The performance numbers are impressive but I'm not really sold on it's body styling.



Made a visit at the Taco garage all kinds of deals going down. Bill selling to Leo2. I think he sold a H-Dampener? Not sure.



Here Leo2's ride...







Since Leo is getting new rims & tires we push Fly over the edge to upgrade




Leo back on stock rubber





Earlier in the week a few picts from R & R. Record low attendance, might of been due to the debate and the Dodger game. Nice sunset that afternoon.

Packers dominated Indy today.



Cowboys got owned by another crappy team. Looks like Tony wussed out of playing even after a pep talk from Favre earlier in the week. All of a sudden those SuperBowl hopes and dreams don't seem to be a gimme anymore.

Luis- Thanks for breaking down and taking those tires of my hands yesterday. Glad to hear you like them though.

Kevin-Thanks for that spring compressor as it cam in handy yesterday. Thanks for letting me use your garage again. Although I think we might have over stayed are welcome.

Bill, Luis- Thanks again for helping with the swap.

Jed, Leo2- Thanks for coming down the after install party wouldn't have been the same without you.

Still have noise even after the swap so I'm guessing it's one of three things now the rear swaybar, Panhard bar, or Panhard support. I'm considering finding someone with all three of those stock parts that wants to do a straight 1 for 1 trade on the parts. Only problem is while I don't need an aftermarket swaybar or ph support I do need an Adj. panhard. What I'll probably try later this week is removing the rear swaybar and taking the car for a drive to see if that's what's causing the noise. I'm hoping it is as I'd rather just swap that than have to deal with the PITA of swapping the ph and ph support. I'll keep you guys posted.

Leo - After hours of tire talk... I had no choice but to break down Thank you though. Really nice tires. I tested them last night

To everyone... Leo would bring up those @$#! tires every chance he could It was after everyone telling me to get them that I finally broke down. Great tires


Thought I would post a picture a friend took of my car the other day. There is more but he's taking forever in sending them

Cool pic Luis!


Went out to swanky Beverly Hills today with Jed and checked out his new restaurant, LA Food Show. Bomb place, great food, and high octane drinks!








... then afterwards, Luis traded in his GT/CS for a new Bullitt! ()


Luis can't model worth beans, so we had to bring in Kai.
