Anything is possible with your car Steve
But I think when I do mine I'll install that "plug" for the ACV since I plan on removing that hard pipe this time.

I has stainless line, and a few other things. They aren't that hard to put on, but unless you have speed bleeders for the calipers, or a power bleeder, then you will need two people to drive the car again. Stick around and come out to meets and ****, and when we have install days come out and lend a hand, or just stand around and learn a thing or two.


PS: Where the hell are all the birds? I think you need some different bird food. Although, I think I saw a squirrel running across the yard at one point. He looked hungry. I tired to throw some food to him but it wouldn't go through the monitor.

EDIT!! A BIRD! I saw a freaking bird!!! **** yeah That little fatshit is hungry and he's eating all your food. GIVE SOME TO THE SQUIRREL YOU GREEDY BASTARD!!!

Jon if you want to operate at full speed let me know and I can come down and document things and take pictures while you guys go.

I might take you up on that John... thanks!

Those birds will eat both feeders in a day these days! Greedy buggers.. There are all kinds out there, the whole Village of Bratenahl is a bird sanctuary. There are hawks, eagles, you name it. The squirrels get all of the seeds the birds knock on the ground below. I'll dig up an outdoor web cam some day and have the squirrel cam

Brian- I don't recall you mentioning if you and Megan are coming to the meet on the 13th.
You guys ditching us?

Do you have black and brown squirrels up there?

Down here we have them both. The blackies keep trying to run the browns out of town. They are mean as hell. I feel bad for the brown squirrels as they are being forced to cross borders now because they are being run out by the blackies.

I need to find a way to run the blacks out of town and keep the browns around. The brown ones are much nicer.

As of right now we are tentative. It all depends on what I can pull this weekend with the ST

I've been battling trying not to have to drop the fuel tank to drain the gas out of it. If I can manage to get that car running by this weeks end, then more than likely we will be there.

Stig

Here in Kent we have 'em both but 'up north' in Bratenahl only brown squirrels. I'll set up a cam out my office window so we can all watch the squirrels fight it out! The IT guy here loves me I'm always sucking up bandwidth on my office computer with something or another

I don't want to see the brown squirrels get hurt though. I'd only agree to watching a squirrel fight if we had some way to fix it so if the black on was beating on a brown one, we release a cat or beagle that was trained to attack black ones.

I'm just tired of the black ones thinking they run the town. Poor brown ones can't even get a nut anymore.

Maybe the browns squirrels should have been more welcoming to the black squirrels and opened up their community... now there is a rift, and grey squirrels are stuck in the middle.

The brown squirrrels welcomed the black ones into the community with open arms, er paws. But the black squirrels took it amongst themselves to take more than their fair share because they felt it was "their due right" and now the brown ones are left without.

The grey squirrels left town years ago. They saw this coming.

Stig

LOL maybe we need to call Dr. Phil and get him involved.

That car sounds so quiet Stig.
We need to work on that.

Stig

Yea it is quiet. I drive 85+ miles a day so I don't want a 'droning' cat back. I want to listen to what others have before I replace it. I'm pretty sure my cat is probably shot at 100k so I'll start there.

I'm going to be working on Red Racer all next weekend if anyone wants to stop by. I work until 1 on Sat, so starting about 2. I'm hoping since Brian didn't race this weekend, he got his own work done and can stop by Sunday and help with the coilovers. Maybe, maybe not. Newb's PM me and I'll give you direction. Also, I keep a contact list of the locals. If you want to be included, pm me your name, email, phone, etc.

I was under Kristen's car on the Bronco on Sunday. Kristen's car got new spark plugs (saw MPG slipping) and I inspected her broken CV boot.

Bronco got seafoamed and an oil change... I was going to change the AT + transfer case fluid. . . until they said together they take 16 quarts... F-that! Its fine!

Doc - what did you do with your 8 this weekend?

Stig

Holy Autozone Batman! 16 quarts?!

Vyndictive

iTrader: (28)

No kidding... I decided that it was probably fine and went on my way... the engine takes 6ish quarts of oil... damn 5.8liter.

Stig

So I'm going to get my OEM rims sandblasted and powder coated this winter. I think I'll go with black so I don't have to keep washing the brake dust off as often. The question is flat, matte or glossy black? There is a place in Grafton, OH that will do them for $66 each rim and a 2 week turn around. Here's the link if anyone is interested. http://www.banksmfg.com/contactinformation/

BTW I refilled the bird feeders and added a squirrel feeder on the tree behind the bird feeders - a corn cob kinda thing.

More than likely I'm not going to be able to make it.

This past weekend I got the ST done, running and for the most part driveable, but there were a few parts I had to "improvise" on it to test it out on the streets. Dealer only parts unfortunately, so I have to get those sometime this weeke and replace them.

Plus I have to put basically a new suspension on megans car (dampers, sway bar endlinks, possible new rear subframe) so until I get all that done I'm not working on anyone elses car, especially since this is her primary mode of transportation. The dampers on her car are going to take a whole day in themselves just for the simple fact I know I will need to cut **** off and weld new stuff on (bolts and nuts) as evident from her rear drum install over at Niles house 2 weeks ago.




All that being said. I may make it to the meet on Friday for an hour or two

I would suggest getting the whole wheel done and not just the rim...it would look kind of silly. For a yellow car though I think you have to go Glossy because otherwise they are going to look just dirty. Also if you sign up over at the c6c there was a vendor that one of the guys worked a deal out with in Akron for $45. The guy that setup the vendor thing though moved out of state so I don't know if it is still good.

Alright. Looks like I'm definitely in on Friday so save me a seat.

Jon - if you still want my gauges I'll have them with me on Friday. Also I sent Stig a PM but if anyone is interested in my Yellow Samco hoses (no one was before but ya never know) let me know.

Oh and if anyone is interested in my race brakes (Cobalt XR2/XR5) I keep forgetting to ask. Those are track only brakes and have about 50% remaining on the fronts. A little more in the rears. But I'll bring those too if someone's thinking about them and want to take a peak and I'm down to $100 on them. Both are going up in the F/S section over the weekend.

That'll be it for accessories.
