um, what's a turbo? :biglaugh:

If you've got the money, why not pay the car off? A car payment means interest is working against you when you make it work for you instead. If you plan to hold onto the money for 5 years or more, then I would put the balance in a conservative mutual fund. You stand to make a lot more there...

And today a silver MKIII in Albemarle, NC about 4:30 in front of the Walmart, just after I took a look at a burgundy '88 NA at a used lot just a 1/8th of a mile up the road. I never see so many around Louisville.

That's funny. I figured the anti theft on mine was long dead when I rolled up with windows (targa off), locked the doors, and ran into a store for a 2 minute trip. I came out and realized I had dropped the keys on the floor under the driver's seat. What to do? Reach in and unlock the door...

Stock location dependent on price for me, too.

Meggs, while I think there's something to the idea of a restaurant/bar making an area for everybody, I believe there's one serious problem with it. Remember that anybody who has started a business like that has invested far more time and money than most of us who work for existing businesses...

To the untrained eye didn't it go on #2 on the exhaust side, too?

Well, a bunch of us know that I've backed Christianity more than once here and I'm not about to bash the JW's. I'm sure they have done some positive things, but I there is one question that seems fair: If only 144,000 are going to be saved and make it into heaven, does that mean they will...

IJ, what you said goes way beyond smoking, unfortunately. The world is hypersensitive to EVERYTHING these days. Just look at "workplace safety". Companies go on and on about really caring for people, but it's simply a process of hedging lawsuits. Nobody wants to take responsibility for their...

Josh & Mark - I don't know if you've looked into it, but there might be another really good resource on the internet available to you in a leukemia forum somewhere. A few years ago I had a rare autoimmune disorder (leukocytoclastic vasculitis) that was caused by a severe reaction to a mold...

Color choice?

He's not only been in our thoughts, but in our prayers. ...and you too for that matter. As a parent of two, I know how having children gives you a whole new definition of love, and I can't imagine what it must be like to see your boy like this. You're obviously a strong example for all of us...

Welcome, and I love the two tone you did! I've been considering a two tone scheme myself, but never would have thought of putting the change as high as you did. Looks great, and I think your car might have convinced me to go ahead with my plans. Not a bad achievement for 19 years old. I'm...

45 minutes east from Louisville would land you in Lawrenceburg, KY, somewhere between Louisville and Lexington and south a little - I think not far from Shaker Village if you've ever been out there. It's a nice drive through some horse farm country, and it might be possible to take a few...

Bolted on? Naw, Duct Tape! :icon_wink

Suprahero, aren't you just a little old for that shit? Just kidding. I'm your age, and... My name is Kurt, and I have messed around with street racing just enough to know it makes my smile. My favorite was agaist some idiot in a Beretta who never had a chance. We gave each other a look...

on Irby St just past Shucker's bar at 7:30 on 7/31, and there was a bunch of emergency vehicles at the next intersection. Black MKIII with an aftermarket wing, I think. Anybody here?

I'm jealous Hells! This is my number one goal after I get my paint done this winter. Keep us posted, and PLEASE take lots of pics and post a pictorial writeup!

Lets see if I can remember: Toyota HG set: $350 ARP Head Bolts: $100 Machine Shop Work: $225 (valve adjustment, milled, tested) Tools & Shop Supplies: $75 Total: ~750 A healthy 7M-GTE: Priceless!

1 - Using OEM HG and doing the work myself ran me about $700 including buying a few tools, etc. Estimates from shops in the area ranged from $1600 to $2000 assuming the head wasn't warped or any other problems existed, etc. 2 - Head needs to be milled if using OEM HG, and you will need to have...
