    Anybody get a good X-mas bonus?

    I asked the question, because I knew it was coming. If I made a salary that afforded $1100 a week in taxes, I would still be owning and driving an MKIII myself. I might also buy a couple of other toys, but my daily would stay a MKIII. I did not mean for my question to be downgrading to anyone here.

    anyone have this injector

    Ya......What he said! Anyway, can you get by with a set of stockers to get you home? Does anybody over there have a set? I have a set if you need it, and will travel if need be. I'd rather somebody closer do it, but it's probably about a 2 hour drive or so.

    ForcedTorque's 3E5 has Arrived!!!!!

    The car made a little bit more progress today! I went and bought new struts to install into the stock springs that I pulled from my parts car. I got 2 of them put into the springs, but stopped now to play taxi driver. I'll get the other two done tonight, or either tomorrow, and try to get some...

    headlights screwy

    I had a similar problem when assembling my front end. When I turned mine on only one went up, but when I turned them off, it went down while the other went up. Then they kept alternating with each turn of the switch. It turned out that I still needed to install one of the bulbs that wasn't in...

    Hood struts for $1.99 each (in Utah)

    Everyone mentions fit and price................I'll be interested in function, especially after 6 months or so. And a word of advise to the masses........hatch struts are not a quick easy install. All rear plastic parts have to come out to do it properly.

    ForcedTorque's 3E5 has Arrived!!!!!

    I'm not out for sure yet. And I'd definitely be game for that 3rd spot in the room if I go. I'll be coming alone for sure. Well, not for sure......my son might want to come. Still a long time away. I'm turning in now, cause I gotta get to work at 6am

    ForcedTorque's 3E5 has Arrived!!!!!

    I wonder if I'd fall off the top of the list if my research takes me out of going this year. Easter Sunday is March 23! I'm a family man, and doubt I will be able to swing it through a holiday. DAMN IT! No need to be sorry Jay, I'm loving the TX2K8 talk. I sure wish something about...

    Rear Wiper Motor Location

    Check your local adult novelty store. But seriously, the wiper is bolted to the motor. Carefully pull the rear plastic. They do break, as do the clips holding them. Then you must take of the wiper arm, and remove the retainer (large flat nut), and then remove the wiring plug before taking...

    ForcedTorque's 3E5 has Arrived!!!!!

    Well Ryan, Gay Blue is a No Go! I found my painter today, he just moved a couple of miles away and out of plain sight. Titus, It would be cool if you could make it. Jay is coming, and I doubt he is too far from you. So, even if you are home, you should make a return trip.

    Where do I hoist a short block with tranny at being in the car still?

    That comment was made as a joke, in reaction to his motor pulling method. Drugs are bad.

    ROTM: Encore Tour! DECEMBER 2007

    I was kidding about George not qualifying. I assume he is also in, but I already placed my vote. He will be some good competition. BTW Jayson, will there be months for specifics such as 7MGE, 7MGTE, JZ, pre and post 89 groups, etc.?

    ForcedTorque's 3E5 has Arrived!!!!!

    It will be a big caravan. First Jay and Ryan will stop here to paint my car and get back on the road. Once we get to Texas, we'll split up and try to find Ken. Once located, we should have enough in the caravan to get that 86gte on the road, and continue onto the show 3 miles away.

    Potential Build Thread, but I need help from you guys!

    I'm picturing a world full of Classic mustangs sporting 7m-gte's and all the MKIII's in the world would be 1JZ or 2JZ. Going to place about 10 votes now.
