Well, I haven't touched the car in 3 weeks. She's still sitting there because I don't have a way to get that nut off the hub. I did the brakes while I had all apart, but couldn't fix the bad bearing because it requires a 36mm socket and 258lbs of torque to get it off!

Ugh...

I have the 36 mm socket.. I would love to come assist. For me it would be atleast 2 weeks though, as Law School has mandatory bullshit professionalism cockery Saturday at 8:00 AM.

I told them that Steve (a.k.a My Hero) already taught me how to be a professional.. they wouldn't go for it. :(

What do y'all know about the pistons to wall problems these engines have? Im going to the Texas mile in march and I don't want my engine to blow up in 5 or 6 gear while going do the mile. I was told by a shop in Houston that I needed to a after market heat exchanger and a bigger reivoir and I'll be fine. This sounds weird. Any suggestion guys?

Just doing my part to keep this thought going. This really needs to happen after all the snow and shit Dallas poured on us lets up.
Well it let up, now it's crappy again. Supposed to be nice this weekend though.

But Dad sold the lake house, so no more broken legs......:beer:
:lol::lol:

SVT Lurch... If you are really sirious about buying the car, let's talk... I'm ready to let this mofo go to a good home... It has a brand new fresh set of true forged wheels as well... Looks bad ass (sitting on jack stands !!! LOL)...

Do you plan on coming to the GTG? I'm probably 6-12 months off from being able to buy yours without having to daily drive it so don't hold it just for me, but I'm thinking I'm better off buying yours complete (or very close to it) rather than building mine up.

As for you instigators - either buy or refinance a house through me...that will expedite the process. :thumbsup:

i'd really love to send some buyers through you Trey, if i can find a Dallas investor that's interested in doing the financial side of it close to home we will be doing some business together.....and hopefully if you know of anyone looking to buy a house in this area you can send them my way and we'll both win. I'll add to my GT-R fund and you'll be able to get your blown snake! :dancenana:

I don't follow needing a Dallas investor - we fund with our own money. Unless you mean a financial backer for an agency here to sell homes here? Either way we can lend anywhere in Texas without issue. I've got my eyes open, but Greg is the only one I know/knew of buying out there and he did it before you were licensed.

Sounds good, we've competed with that company's preferred lender before and came out on top.

no, we seem to have a lot of buyers who prefer to keep their business here in Lubbock. However, if i were to sell to an investor who lives in the Dallas area and rents out their lubbock properties, then i'd be able to work with you....make it happen :beer:

I'm a Tech graduate and so is half the office - spread the love, haha! No worries, we'll both continue to keep our eyes out for the other.
