Coming from a guy who regrets making a hack or two... How much can you get back from the Spohn? Unless you're absolutely married to that torque arm, I'd consider a better TA before hacking up a perfectly good Y-pipe. Hang on...I'm getting a phone call... It's Cleetus. He's calling me from my driveway... What's that, Cleetus? Yeah, he drives it on the street... Cleetus says "header dumps at the collectors".

Welcome to the site! Thanks for coming out to Cars and Coffee...

I don't think easing that law is really going to affect the behavior of anyone not ALREADY BREAKING THE LAW. Hmmm....reminds me of mar1juana legalization...

You're in a room, holding the keys to your brand new, leased Land Rover Evoque. There is only one way out, through a door. Between you and the door is me, and I'm holding a claw hammer. You just leased a 2-door CUV for over $1,100 a month for 24 months, (amortizing the security deposit and all taxes over the life of the lease) and despite the 50+mile daily round-trip to work PLUS SALES CALLS AROUND OHIO, you only get 12,000miles a year. $0.35/mile over alloted miles. Please explain to me how I'm not going to pound you over the head for being such an ididoth.:dumb:

I'm not a bike guy, but I luvs me DAT BUSA. Sounds like a cool contest...anything the rest of Suzuki can do to promote the brand with the demise of their car division in the USA is also good in my book.

Top Gear made me realize that cutting off a truck/bus wastes A LOT OF FUEL, because the trucker needs to slow down and then blow through more diesel getting back up to speed. Respekt the working truck driver. :thumbup:

At Brent1976's recommendation, I bought a can of Klean-Spray stripper at Wal*Mart last night (as opposed to sanding/blasting the old paint on the wheels)....HOLY SCHNIT that stuff did the trick. Wheels are no longer orange. I'll figure out how to tape off the spokes and rim, and I'll repaint the accents body color. Also, I'll see about a slightly shorter sidewall in the rear, but rest assured the fronts will be 60-series (as opposed to 75-series now). Gonna have DAT STINKBUG STANCE.

I was at lunch on Friday with the CFO of one of my client companies, and I shared that I was watching "Firefly" on Netflix this past week. He went on and on about Battlestar Galactica (the TV show, NOT the miniseries as he was quick to point out). I may give that a try next.

Screw the supercharger...go for the turbo. :thumbup:

How did you plastic-weld the dash??? My Ford truck dash is the same way and I'd love to fix it like you did. I bought $30 worth of vinyl boat upholstery and it sucks...need to take it off and start from scratch...

I KNOW about the orange!!! I swear I bought Valspar's "FORD RED" from TSC...but whatever. Thanks for the opinions! I need to get shank-style lug nuts (http://www.sfxperformance.com/parts/GOR73137CRB.htm) and some center caps. Tires are going to be swapped out as well.

Get up on the hood of that Camry, drop trou and leave a steamboat on the cowl vent.

Honestly, I've had the 15x7's on Cleetus for so long I can't tell if this is too far out in the rear...15x8.5" in the rear, 15x7 matching wheels for the front (not pictured) http://www.columbusracing.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=669&pictureid=7015 http://www.columbusracing.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=669&pictureid=7016 http://www.columbusracing.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=669&pictureid=7017 Personally, I think the tire gap is just right, and I have rear air shocks in case I need to haul something heavy. I wouldn't mind an 1" more backspacing, but I'm not going to complain over $160 wheels. The tires are 255/70s, so going any wider would probably not be advisable:eek: Thoughts?

That handle needs to be wrapped in something better than electrical tape. Whale penis foreskin, perhaps?

I heard your snake is so short, when it gets sick it throws up all over your ballsac.

Been watching "Firefly" since last weekend on Netflix...10 out of 14 episodes. It's been really well done so far. I admit I wish I watched the shows before watching the movie (Serenity).:thumbup::thumbup:

It may not be 50s at 10am, but it's a bellweather for how mild the day may be...

http://www.columbuscarsandcoffee.net 9am to 12pm - Cup O' Joe, Lennox Town Center - SPREAD THE WORD! If the weather stays above 50degrees, I'm probably going to fire these up every Saturday from here on out.

Wow...beat me to the punch!

CTS-V

Yes...I was in high school when Olean (olestra) came out. The health discussions were that 2% of people would have a "negative reaction" to the ingredient. I was driving with my parents from Ohio to Long Island, NY to visit my grandparents. Nearing the NJ border and several hours into the trip, we stopped for gas and my mother bought some Lay's "Wow!" chips. I ate two potato chips and didn't like the taste... Not 15 minutes later, we make it to NJ and I'm riding in the far back seat of our Caravan. I DOUBLE OVER in abdominal pains. I was a healthy, well-built high-schooler and within a minute I was curled in the fetal position, near tears, in a cold sweat on a minivan bench seat. The rest of my family was wondering WTF was wrong with me whilst happily munching away at the bag-o-chips. Long and DISGUSTING story short, I made my parents pull over a half dozen times throughout NJ so I could destroy some gas station toilets. I mean, it was like Trainspotting and "The Worst Toilet In All Of Scotland" every stop we went and I didn't even care. By the time I was totally cleaned out, we still had three hours through NYC, the boroughs, and the rest of Long Island. Despite the sharp, stabbing abdominal pains throughout the trip, I didn't mess myself like that guy. Olean was far and away the worst digestive issue I've ever experienced in my life. Unlike food poisioning or stomach illnesses we've all had, I actually felt fine by the time we got to our destination...after one last clearing-of-the-baffles. My parents and I joke about it to this day. I still get wary when Baked Lays come across my way (which I do like)...any low-cal chip I immediately scan the label for Olean or olestra in the ingredients.
