Exactly! You never know when someone else has you in their sights, however unintentionally. Most of my best maneuvers were completely on accident, but calm and controlled reactions kept me in the clear. :)

Could that explain that while one pays for 20mbps service, you only get between 7-10mbps? That's the boat I'm in. Always figured it was like the old 56k modems, where you were limited to 53.something.

Did you try getting it to smoke? French car after all... they're a lot like a 2 stroke, you only worry if it's NOT smoking. :p You mean the Cadillac Cavalier? Haha, unfortunately, yes... speaking of Caddy's, listening to Rancid's "Time Bomb" at the moment. :) Was yours unsafe despite your...

Heard that before haha... and sheared enough bolt heads clean off that I don't trust you here. :p

Little bit of social commentary going on there Mike? :p

Considering the work done, I'll allow it. :p Am beginning to wonder when someone is just going to stick a 10,000hp turbine engine in a Mk4 and dare the world to top THAT. :rolleyes:

I've rocked both, wingless looks great IF you have a nice suspension setup. If it's stock, they don't look so great without a spoiler. What's $0.02 worth these days though, it's your car. :)

Is it feasible to use a 17" wheel? Tires are generally a bit cheaper and you have a bit wider of wide sizing options from what I've seen...

That's pretty scary... time to invest in a scatter shield? Does the loctite require a curing period before it's good to go? Even loctite red, I'm sure a flywheel/clutch/engine area would create enough heat to render loctite less effective.

You make a good point about other drivers too. Sometimes people will do foolish things while driving in poor weather. Their actions will occasionally force YOUR hand. That's where practice will help you, just getting familiar with what reaction you SHOULD have. Sometimes it's best to merely...

This thread is going south in a hurry, no pun intended... :rofl:

Ahh... I missed the party I suppose. Well, happy birthday anyway, some funny posts in here, looking forward to what else people came up with. :)

10's can be had if you're not launching on boost... What sort of 60' times are you getting now?

That's understandable Chris, sorry to bring up a sore spot. :( And Ian's build is enough to make anyone want a Ute I think...

Make sure your battery is disconnected while you're at it, nobody likes getting shocked when they're pulling the wires off the alt and connect a wrench to ground. ;)

Generally speaking mine idles anywhere from 900-1100 rpm. However, my ISCV is pretty much shot, so it's all mechanical adjustment to get mine to where it will be consistent. On a rare occasion the ISCV decides to work and it will idle about 1300-1400, and it gets COLD here.

If you're into classic iron, this sort of thing is pretty much a pre-requisite to ownership. My brother has welded, patched, and sanded more of his Impalas than I can even remember. End result has come out nicely though. On the subject of patch panels though, if one were looking to make a nice...

Haha, I called it! :) Sorry about the dash troubles man, I can see that being a headache, but at least you rhd guys got the choice...

Last I checked, Spam on here has the front lip for sale... or half bumper or whatever that thing is. :)

Only downside to doing that on a pre-89 car Aloshan, as I'm sure you've noticed already, is the trim in the center there. Otherwise looks great. :)
