All these talks about aftermarket wheels making me wish I got mine

I went with adjustable BC coil overs mainly because they were the cheapest and I was going for looks, but if you're more interested in performance (& looks) KWs since the rebound can also be dialed in. Though you might want to give Pedders a look since they are running a special on the BB.

To make this what did you do to your Kappa today related:

the 06 vert to work for the first time (sure is nice too look down from my ivory tower and admire it)

and last night ordered Griots garage & Raggtop products for spring cleaning.

Well, today I ordered a batch of 25 O-rings for the TMAP sensors since the GM part number is so obsolete it's not even funny. Yesterday I installed Dejon cold-side IC pipe and found out the O-ring was cut. Put it back in and it didn't leak, but I don't like running something like that. Dejon doesn't have the O-ring anymore, so McMaster Carr it is. Twenty five O-rings. Anyone needs one/spare ?

POS VETT, what size are those o-rings, do ya' know? I need to buy one as I did the same as you and tore mine inserting the MAP sensor into the charge tube.

Ride height - Its recommended.

Bound and rebound - It doesn't matter...

I was referring to the "Camber", "link" adjustments when you change the height of the car with the adjustable coil overs...

I do know that when I had my springs installed the mechanic had to adjust the link settings to about about 3" on each side......

Bob, she has already marked them, and I told her to drive out the warranty on the new one first.
Then we will see.

Mike, that can only mean you still haven't detailed your car

The weather has been crappy over the weekend, but it has been wiped down a couple of times. Besides, I'm waiting on my OIC to be gone next weekend so I can pull it up to the space under my balcony and run the extention cord out of my room. She's slowly coming around to me having it here and even said that I am the test bed to see if it's viable to open it up for E-7 and above to have vehicles here. This is the last base on the peninsula (other than the DMZ) where you can't have them.

Critterman · « **Reply #3049 on:** April 03, 2011, 11:44:35 AM »

She married? If not you know your job. If POV's aren't authorized, then they don't have an auto hobby shop do they?
