    Facime's Mk2 build

    Jute is the spun cotton padding/insulation under the carpet. Its hard not to tear up when pulling the carpet, and once it gets wet it gets kinda messy.

    Facime's Mk2 build

    LOL, you guys crack me up! You dont have to say anything really. This is as much a chronological record for me as anything. Still, its nice to have you guys appreciate the hard work. The jute backing is indeed glued to the back of the carpet, although a layer of it stayed on the floor when I...

    Facime's Mk2 build

    James I dont expect to win anything...Im just hoping to stand out a little and for people to recognize the hard work alittle. Thats all I can hope for. Today I had planned to head to Oly to help Speed with his body work, but he had some car trouble in the 'rents sable so we put it off...

    I have a warrant out for me? I don't suppose we have any lawyers here....

    Totally agree with that. I made ONE mistake when I was 18 and pay for it to this day. I tell you though, 20+ years on the run will make you learn how to avoid trouble real good. Made me a better driver too ;) Actually he never said one way or another. His Lawyer told him not to discuss it and...

    I have a warrant out for me? I don't suppose we have any lawyers here....

    Meet anyone interesting? I met a nice young kid (18yo senior in high school) in Bakersfield County Jail who was accused of murdering his girlfriend. He was the star football running back and by all accounts was probably headed to the pros. A couple of years later I found out he was convicted...

    I have a warrant out for me? I don't suppose we have any lawyers here....

    I understand that but at the same time Im sure you expected SOMETHING for what you paid him. Hindsight is always better of course, but given what he did (or didnt do) The money given to this guy would have been better served kepping you guys afloat while you were "inside". But Im sure you know...

    At last we got got our challengers.

    I had posted some pics of one in my build thread that I took a week or so back. It was parked at the local dealership (yeah little ol Corvallis had one) Pearl Orange and it was preeeeeetty! It has its detractors, but I would own one...for a year anyway, then trade it in on a new Camaro :naughty:.

    How I spent this months allowance .......

    When I first saw this I thought to myself, "Holy shit I thought my rebuild outside in the winter under a makeshift tarp was primitive..." Then realized this was your parts car, lol.

    87 RX7 sawblade stock wheels on the MK3?

    Speed said that the RX7 wheels he borrowed for his mk3 while his wheels were getting powdercoated didnt fit, but he didnt explain why. I'll see if I can find out why.

    What in the hell have I gotten myself into?

    Holy Shit Ken, thats sweet! Hope you got what you were asking for it :evildeal: I hate to say it but with her behind the wheel it makes me realize what a "chick car" that one was, down to the stripes and the polished sawblades. :momaru: I guess this means you have almost enough to pick up...

    head gasket done, car feels slower

    I love how on the first couple of pages everyone throws out torque specs without having the slightest clue about whether the OP has stock bolts or ARP's, and doesnt mention what type of hardware they are referring too either. This only adds to the misinformation problem...
