I will more than likely be there Dan.. working on the 1985 as usual! I think that [email protected] will be there too working on stripping down his ABA motor and generally skinning knuckles!

I should be making my way up there to buy some things for the Jetta. Probably around noonish.

The smoke thing sucks. But I guess I wont mind if they smoke under my car while they do the work. Autox season begins soon and I really need to have all the stuff done that I'm too lazy to do myself.
Re: gf is pissed (jininkan)

Yup... I'll be there busting knuckles on that ABA and maybe doing some work on a 8v head.
Look for a green A3 Jetta GLX and that would be me.

Ya think they would be able to put on my front calipers this saturday?? I have a set of TT ones that I need put on, along with the brake lines.

I had my front sway bar installed by them a few months ago - they did a great job.

David, you should be done that Rabbit by now, what's the hold up?
I'm handing off a NB Turbo S to Paul today, so he'll probably have that up there as eye candy also.

Paul... working on that thing.. it's actually coming together drivetrain wise as we speak.
Waiting on the car to come back from being painted. Oh so close.... Once it's out of paint things should really start moving along. I have a rather large stockpile of parts that are waiting to go on there.
Speaking of cars that need to be done... think you have me beat on that front.

Anthony.. that's something you would have to call Ed & Dave about. I know they have been pretty booked up so they may or may not be able to squeeze that in. Might want to give them a call... 1-877-German1.
Paul and I will be out back swearing at all things mechanical and I'll probably be sporting some more scrapped up knuckles.

Glad to hear it's actually at the painter! Same color as we discussed before, right?

Hey, pal, we're talking about you and NOT me. I'm a "special" case

So you two are actually going to be turning wrenches? I thought the arthritis would prevent Paul from doing that? And I thought that you knew better

Re: gf is pissed (need_a_VR6)

Paul is taking asprin now for his arthritis and I just don't know better.

Actually somewhat enjoy tearing/building this back up. I'm going to leave the BIG work to the NGP boys b/c they know how to do it far better than I do.
Same color... should look amazing once it's out of there.
Stop avoiding the topic... you need to get that car on the road.. been what 2yrs now???!!!

Re: gf is pissed ([email protected])

ok, what time will you all be up there at?
Re: gf is pissed (adg44)

I go up early... there by 10am... means I'm on the road by 8:30 if not earlier.
Tons of cops on the road at the hour so the going is slow.
Re: gf is pissed ([email protected])

18mos for both myself and my insane counterpart. Bother Powerflex if you want it on the road that badly, they're holding me up! Once it's up and tuned though, I'll be lapping Summit with you nutters.
It's going to look NICE that color! Still doing the 2l 8v?

Re: gf is pissed (need_a_VR6)

Yup... don't sleep the 8v.... going to be nice and worked though... 150hp is the project goal. Also some tricks in the braking dept. also.

Considering I weigh 2lbs soaking wet the car should move along quite nicely when it's done.

Re: gf is pissed ([email protected])

I *really* hope you didn't get any of these Rabbit braking tricks from me! Oh, my bunny is actually sporting 100% functional rear discs these days. Wierd eh? Funny thing is, it doesn't stop ANY better! Bah!

Re: gf is pissed (need_a_VR6)

I'll leave all those braking bunny tricks up to you Paul.

11in brakes will do me just fine.
Overkill, but ain't it great.

Re: gf is pissed (adg44)

I'm 'scheduled' for 10am on the install. So I'll be around to check out the works in progress...
