oh wait there all better, no feelings were abused, but some binaries were terribly inconvenienced

Leo & Luis, good luck with the living space searches.

Maybe it's time for you guys to move in together.



You guys will probably get a garage sooner than me.

Sal, I can't wait to see how it all comes together. I'm sending all my good mojo your way!


I'm finally getting my car lowered along with getting low dust high performance brake pads installed middle of next week.

Quality of blow is no good these days. So a better option would've been 7.5k on a blower, and the other 7.5k getting blown... wait, what are we talking about again?

Like I said, there was a button to push so I did. Probably a little on the a**hole side, but sometimes I can't help it.

I don't think Ray's equipped to do a coilover swap in the driveway.

I'm guessing he picked Chicane for the work?

That's Dr.Bill! He's a cool guy. I've spoken with him on sidebar about his cool choice in color and mods.

Luis.. I know you mentioned something about no more mods for your car in some long winded cracked out e-mail, but this deal is killer!

Wow can you feel the love?

The only progress pics I have so far are these:



Coming home on the hook----so sad.




Leaving for the engine shop


The motor builder has some pics of the damage....he's promised to email them to me...stay tuned.

I'm going with H&R coilovers, Eibach adustable panhard bar, camber bolts, etc.

Are you really that hurt because you wanted to work in the 100 degree heat for me Brian? I really appreciate that!

That's for sure and it would be impossible to get an install party done before next weekends show. I chose Stillen for the parts and install. Getting it all done in one day including alignment and they are also installing my new brake pads at no extra charge.

Dumb question, how much more difficult is a coilover swap ? It all still has the same mounting bolts & position, right >

Man, that's never a good sight, but at least it's off the the engine shop. That is great news

no I wanted to ***** about it with friends during and then get rewarded with some BJs Blonde once it's done

There's a show next weekend ? The alignment being done at the same time is a big plus. Bigger plus not going with Chicane.

Two shows...

QM and Shelby's on the Santa Monica Pier.

BTW Steve (where ever you are... ), are you going to the Shelby show?

QM... isn't that a couple weeks away, honestly don't even know when it is and haven't been paying attention and I recall something about a Shelby show but that's about it. Shows have been the furthest thing on my mind lately.

Hope Sal is mentally prepared for the engine/machine shop as they can take forever and a day.

Coilover install.. guess it's the same way, but have to 'dial-in' the drop. Hell, I don't know.

Aligment.. I thought you have to wait a couple hundred miles at least before getting it aligned?

Good luck at both Ray!

Rumor is George is throwing a party onboard the QM the night before.

QM captains flying bridge bar, or whatever bar everyone else is at, now that sounds like fun . I'll recover at home in the dark A/C cooled living room

If so, I'll just take it back later for a recheck.

No QM for me, I'll get plenty of sun on the pier Saturday, but I may stop by and say hi.
