so does that mean you're a social drinker with mad cooking skills? :-D

truth be told, i think LGM is beautiful...and the fact that she is so talented mechanically is awesome!!! looks, brains, personality (from what i gathered over the phone), heritage, class and speed...no better combo :wink:

other than a tan, you're a 10 in my book.

now, to the car...someone ask the man what it went for!

Marie, did u ever make it to the dyno?

Nope, never did make it yet. Have a few other priorities on the to do list.

Yep, to a nice golden brown

Tomorrow will be a fun day filled with runs to various steel mills and Auto shops along with alot of cutting and welding. Not exactly womanly behavior but so much darn fun.

New shot of the engine with the new coolant overflow tank. Note that the hose that formerly ran over the engine has been moved to a less conspicuous local.

wicked pic and tank!!!

Hey Marie, how much room is there from the downpipe to the radiator hose? i have been contemplating getting a Vband DP adapter for my GT2560R and was wondering if i could even clear a 90 degree tight radius bend in there. if you could, might you get a measurement from the turbine housing to the radiator hose?

this will let me know if i will need your original GT series downpipe or if i can go with a v-band.

thanks, btw sorry about waking you the other day :oops:

LGM, that's beautious! :clap:

Tiny little detail. I would get a can of red or blue plasti-dip and put 3 or 4 coats on the dipstick handle.

New pics of my foglight install. Hella Micro DE

I had to weld up some nice litte brackets to get them right so, I used the factory switch and relay for power and made my own harness to the lights though you couln't tel the haness wasn't stock. The hard part was getting the whole thing to line up. The lights are bolted to the frame ..... not the bumper. I took the bumper off to fit them in and alot of measuring to make sure I got it right. Anyways......

Neat - as ever

I like the mounting, and it looks great in the nighttime pic. Are you planning to do some kind of trim ring around them or something? It may not look this way in person, but the way the grill is cut out around the light doesn't look as finished as your normal work. Please don't take it as criticism. All of the work you've done in the past looks so perfect, nnobody would ever guess it's DIY. The sort of unfinished look of the edges of the grill around the light makes this the first thing I've ever seen that you've done that looks DIY.

Again, don't take it as criticism, rather that you've set the standard so high.

Because of your rear end :shock:

and your bubbles :shock:

you are one of the few folks here I would credit with the ability to mount those fog lights in the fibreglass, instead of in the intercooler opening, and have the finished product look like factory. I do like it though. I've been thinking of mounting small round lights in the same place. It's nice to see how it would look.
