    My first car back from the dead, '90 GR40+351+YSi

    Mom bought this new as a DD for work when I was 12. Learned to drive in parking lots at 14 in it, and was given the keys at 16. Dad wanted to mod it some as a father-son project. We started with heads/cam/exhaust, RRs, intake manifold etc etc... it ran decent but was sorta sluggish with the...

    FS: 2008 Tornado Red GTI 2dr, APR Stg 1 + Koni CO, low mile

    I am reluctantly selling my 2008 GTI. I bought it new, and it has been my dad and I's spare daily driver since June 08. Never raced. It is a very late FSI model (2008.5) as it was one of the last on the lot. APR tune was done for 93 octane in Oct 2010, and it gets 28-30 mpg average now...

    Got my other FRC finished yesterday, pics inside!

    I bought my fiance's old Nassau in April. It's a 1999 FRC which she replaced with a 2000 model which I have posted some pics of before with the HREs. When I got it, it had 108K miles on it and was running decent, but definetly not a hot rod. It also had a terrible squeal, something you'd hear...

    FS: Speedhut Boost and Voltage gauge with Autometer dash bezel pod

    HRE 545Rs Gunmetal/polished with Michelin Pilot Sports

    Pic and vid of my new LS3 Toy (08 C6)

    So I found me a new toy. The Cobra was awesome, but I was at the point of wanting to go Whipple or KB and SRA with a built T56, so I just took that mod money and swapped to teh dark side. Ive always wanted a vette so this is still a little surreal. Here is a quick ride home I gave my good...

    Anyone in the Bay have a stock 03/04 Cobra mid pipe I can borrow for smog?

    I may be selling my car, and putting a temporary h pipe with cats on it to help it smog would be a lot cheaper than buying one. Anyone have one off the car I can borrow for a day?:beer: Matt

    Might sell my car, how's the market?

    Thought Id get some opinions before I post my car up. I dont have to sell it, but it would make the most logical sense as I dont drive it much and what's to replace it will get garage priority, (I don't want storage with 2-3 cars in it anymore).:shrug: So anyway, what's a clean CO with...

    Rear window molding is loose, how to replace?

    For some unseen reason, the lower back window rubber molding on my 04 is loose and the glue is dried, so it won't stick anymore. I think the summer heat in Dallas torched it and it got loose and got gritty, and now it sags in the middle and doesnt stick. I'd like to fix this mainly so water...

    Does anyone who has installed them theirselves have any tips? Does the rear end move or shift if you take them out? Where to support the rear of the car so it doesn't move when you take the bolts out? I did a search, figured I'd just ask since I didn't see a how to.:beer:

    Pics from the Bay Area Car (Concord) show 7/3/09

    So I just looked at em, and most of em are a little yellow because I had the white balance set to flash and didn't catch it till I was almost done. They didn't look as yellow in the view finder, but Im sure with software they can be corrected. Per promise, these are straight off the camera...
