You poor thing, two Porsches but no Fuchs....
Life is so cruel for you....

(hmmm, what's the font color one would use here... )



PS: did I say I own TWO sets.... so that's EIGHT Fuchs wheels in total........ (7 and 8 AND 7 and 9 )

OK, then my second set of Fuchs also only counts for 1/2, seeing that there is no car attached to them...

Yes... But it would be quicker to make them whole than to make my car whole... So they count 3/4s...

If we ever get together, you can borrow my Fuchs. (if you let me drive the track rat...)

Any news 'bout the new I-phone?? When is it coming?? Sans sim-lock of course, or can it be jailbroken to accept all providers?

Coming Jun 24th... We won't be getting them at work... I suspect they will be locked... No clue when the hacks will be out...

I fear the no contract price will be north of $500USD....

500 USD, still cheaper than 600€....

Then they do sell them without contract??
Maybe one with a contract could be jailbroken asa the hacks come out, cheap cheap!
24th of this month, Damn, I just bought mine....

I receved this today:

New Company Word of the day:

FOCUS

When you are annoyed with someone tell them to FOCUS

F#*K Off Cause U're Stupid!

That does not apply to any of the posters on this thread. !

Welp,

My Carrera is back on the tires at almost the correct ride height. Wednesday evening when I put the tires on the ground it looked like a cat in heat. It is amazing what 14 degrees will do to a torsion bar suspension. The ass end was three inches too high. Now I just have to get the stabilizer bar back on, and torque everything down, finish bleeding the brakes and drive! I don’t know if I have the energy to stay up late tonight and finish it up to make the DE on Saturday or not. That will depend on how involved my Friday night husbandly duties are. I will be at the autocross with a home brew SWAG alignment having fun on Sunday.

Well... I will be running the Corolla at the DE and then heading home...

Something took a dirt nap on the way to the car wash this morning... Porsche flat lined and then wouldn't restart... I suspect the Fuel pump and or its relay.... Possibly the DME or the reference sensors....

And then there is the matter of what is causing relays to die? This is the second one this week! And the other was for the HVAC... So a totally unrelated system...

morning dudes!

had a great date last night; nothing fancy, nothing sexy, just good talks diner and a movie.
We're not really each other's types in the looks department but we've got the same sense of humor.
Tonight I'm going out, to take care of the sexy part.... lol

AND I'm getting my wheels back!
Pics sure to follow!
