    during sex

    Guess you get busted by the sex police for: 2 fast 2 furious during sex What about: The truth about cats and dogs during sex
  2. In the 500 acre field behind my parents house there is a child molester, 2 robbers, a rapist, "performance by a child, and a criminal use of a firearm. The last one was probably legit, someone hunting rabbit out of season. Not me this time though. It's obviously BS but mildly entertaining.
  3. you could have ordered from tire rack yesterday and had them today(Indiana). I just threw my old ones away a couple weeks ago. sorry. Last time I checked pep boys they had quit carrying them, nice that they have them now.
  4. Greyhound...I had a convertible top frame shipped from Idaho for $59
  5. What year is it? I had a '63 and a '64. I never heard of anyone having a fire incident. The ones you have to be careful with are the pre '64's, in '64 they added a transverse leaf spring that greatly stabilized the body roll and tendency to tuck the axles. A big thing with them is to make sure you have all the tin in place on the engine(same with VW's), otherwise you will have overheating problems. Also carry atleast one spare fan belt, they do not like the 90 degree twist they have to make and like to jump off. The pre '65's tend to rust out in the "eyebrow" above the headlights, about 75% of the pre '65's will have this problem. Get on a good VW parts site and buy a carb synchronizer...you're gonna need it. Not only will the two sides run differently, a lean condition will cause them to overheat bad. Someday I'm gonna buy another one, that was my first car and it was a blast. If you can't find a shop manual for it let me know, I have mine stashed here someplace and I could photcopy some pages for you, or make pdf's. Good Luck.
  6. Sorry the ones I have are 2.25 offset in and offset out.
  7. If NTR is anything like Kil-Kare they walk around the car and look for 20 lug nuts and a seatbelt and long pants and slap the wristband on. If they nit-picked every car on a TnT night they would never get it going. Not saying it's right...just saying it IS.
  8. I used to buy barrels from a guy in Orient for $10 each. Guess the prices on barrels follows oil prices.
  9. Is that Billmans at Lincoln Village?
  10. That's basically the current setup. Sfc's, tubular lca's, adjustable panhard and body mount adj torque arm, but with stiffer overload springs on the back for now.
  11. The only problem with that is that you have to have a fuel cell in the car to use their bar. Which means you need a bulkhead which kills the use of the interior. This is still my DD I am just looking to optimize what I have without making it a dedicated track car. Everything else they make is pretty much 4th gen stuff, I wish they made more stuff for the 3rd gens.
  12. That's what I'm going for is hook. With the stock suspension I'm getting almost no weight transfer and it spins the DR's on launch and every gear change. With the front sway bar off and 165 tires it still corners better than my K1500.
  13. I'm actually thinking either Lakewood 90/10 struts or KYB AGX adjustables. Not alot of options for the third gens. I know the 25 year old stock springs are all but dead and with no a/c, emissions, sway bar, and a 'glass hood, I've lost over 100 lbs off the front which makes it sit a little high..might not be bad for the track though.
  14. Has anyone here run Moroso trick front springs on the street? I'm rebuilding the front suspension and have been considering this. I understand why they say for racing only, just wondering how they actually act on the street. This will be on my '82 Camaro, 3500lbs with driver. It's either these or new stock springs, not even considering lowering springs because of header clearance.
  15. My DD is 12.50's on DR's spinning on every shift. I only change to a/s tires in the winter and there is no choke on the carb. I've had new cars...and the payments that go with them, but I never enjoyed driving them like I do my Camaro. I couldn't own a garage queen.
  16. I have the nittos with about 20,000 street miles and they still work great in the rain and dry conditions..They exceeded the mileage rating and dropped my et so I'm satisfied.
  17. Do you have the EP-5547-R and the EP-5547-L?
  18. Are these the 10.5 or the 12" rotors, and are they just drilled or drilled and slotted?

    NTB Holt Rd.

    I thought that Mustang looked familliar on Georgesville yesterday..now I know.
  20. Stanley has had MAC up for sale since atleast last spring. That's why they pulled back alot of their racing sponsorships.
  21. True duals dumping at the axle with performance mufflers and something more than a stock engine tends to resonate unless you take them to the side of the car.Mine dump right below the rear axle next to the center angled outward about 30degrees. I have full length headers and 2 1/2" system with H-pipe and 40 series Flowmasters..sounds like a damn boom boom stereo vibrating the whole damn car but sounds good outside. I learned later, but haven't changed it yet, that if you are going to stop short of the edge of the car like this that you should angle the tips towards each other slightly. Supposedly this somewhat cancels the resonance, that's according to David Vizard.
  22. I'm wondering..if we're sick fucks for clicking it without knowing what it is, you have to wonder how he found it to post it in the first place...hmmmm btw..it didn't open anyway.
  23. I have had them for 4 years and my price has gone down.
  24. I fall into the "I don't hate my job or love my job" catagory. The pay isn't bad, weekends off, when I clock out I leave the stress there, 4 weeks of vacation a year plus 2 weeks of paid shutdown, any product we make I get for no cost(without stealing it), 401k etc etc.. I just wish they would hire some supervisors that know their ass from a hole in the ground.
