    What do things weigh? See the A70 Weight Index

    Lamarossa Flush Lights patterns

    If you mounted the lights a littler higher in the housings, and swapped the highs/lows (put the lows on the outside) then I think you could get pretty decent lighting out of them. Right now it looks like the beam cuts off to soon at the bottom. This might not be an issue if you have your fogs...

    5-spd swap labor

    I can do it at my shop in Woodstock, NY ... do you have all the parts together? If you have all the parts the swap will only take a few days, I have a parts car here too for anything you might be missing. I'm booked until about 2 weeks from now. Shoot me an email and I'll try to get a number...

    What color should I paint my engine bay?

    If you're going to do the engine bay in black, then pull the fenders. This will make it so that where the fenders are all one color. There's no way you can cut a line on that fender and make it not look ghetto. If you keep the fenders and the radiator support (or at least the top of it) all...

    What's the easiest way to identify a Turbo MKIII?

    this isn't correct. The use of NA chasis for turbo cars did happen, but the VIN of a turbo car will always be MA71. If you look on the firewall of some turbo cars with an MA71 VIN, the firewall chasis stamp might say MA70. This means the factory used a chasis originaly destined to be an NA as...

    How Illegal Is This?
