Though I searched and saw a pic --^.. Looks nice - though I only found it as "Heidfeld Mesh" .. hope it isn't any different from what I saw.
Sadly, I'm past that km mark .. why I'm thinking I shouldn't even spend $ on the ride - just upgrade perhaps (or just maintenance and save my money)... still got time to decide I guess, but then again need to decide on other things first (like a job/career or possibly school again
) Why is my vagina bleeding?

. Darm thing pulls hard in first second and third, in a bit of time your already doing 180
. Maybe I aint ready for a Type S. I've been in a GTI, that thing throws you back in the seat, but I think thats cause of the torque, its much faster than my car in a straightline but the guy had 200whp, with the 6 speed, handling was Faze when did you get the veloz body kit? I need one badly.

Anyone seen the 05 wheels from Fast Wheels?? Couple of those models actually make me want to buy them - more specifically, just the black Inferno

Hey there is a tunning shop on boulevard st-charles before the pierrefonds boulevard intersection. Have you guys been there?

Why don't you want to put on the bars? I remember you said you were concerned about safety.

Oh, and back to your question - it looks like FaZe might be interested in a small drop

He wasn't sure if it was because there was a kink in the exhaust system (looked like it) or if the bar was to be placed in another fashion
but in the end, he didn't have time to experiment/hack & readjust the exhaust as he had lots of appointments that day. Since that day - I haven't done anything about it....

Not anywhere close .. just a slightly touched stock exhaust. - the rain rattling has somewhat been diminished by heating/moving the pipe & braces in the front end.. still happens, but not as badly as it used to. Though the piping going to the exhaust looks like it has a kink in it why the exhaust part looks too close to where the bar should be. Thread Starter

I guess it will take you 20-25 mins tops. If you go to a garage 10 mins for them, Its very simple and much easier since they have a lift. Its a very basic install, when my mechanic friend get's back I'm actually gonna ask him to let me do it and keep and eye out so I don't mess up anything(sometime this Month). There are 6 bolts in totals, 4 for the sway bar bushings and 2 for the endlinks.
What kind of work do you do?

Grey sells a progress adapter kit. Are you sure you got your endlinks from Progress? I didn't know they have endlinks.

Bump for mtl peeps any ppl organizing meets spring is somewhat coming up? I have yet to see fast 7thgen in mtl no offense to anyone on here other than a 7thgen with a 75 shot. Someone has gotta boost or swap!
The dezod kit would cost us over $4000+ CAD
a K20A3 swap, at least $6-7000 CAD
No offense, but I think I would just sell my car and put the downpayments for an 06 SiR then boosting or swapping.

As for a fast 7thgen, I think we'll leave that to SUPERFLY - as I believe he'd be the quickest one of us here (though he's sticking to the n/a route, so probably not "the" quickest around (as you look to want to see a lot more)). I know you are into go yourself, so I can understand, but I'm not so I'd rather see a nicely done up car over speed..
In any event, as for organizing a meet - don't know if anyone is actually doing so, but I do know I'll probably go to a few (probably more out-of-towners than anything...) and would easily go to a meet organized here.

Just kidding.. Sounds like a super deal - I'll pass along the information to a buddy of mine (1.7 EL) that needs a good cleaning/polishing. Doubt he'd use the membership, but I'm sure something can be arranged. Though I might be talking to you about my own car, as I'll probably want to try to do it myself
Meets are gonna start happening early april, everybody's gonna want to show off their ride, whatever they did or bought over the winter, I know it's my case. Just hope it's all gonna be ready, won't have time to fit the Y8 intake manifold since it requires another fuel rail and injectors, then you get into serious tuning and pretty much need a fuel management system $$$... We're gonna raise fuel pressure with a return line and fool the ecu in thinking the a/f ratio is good with 2 o2 simulators. The stage 1 ACT is just ready to be installed, the flywheel gets back this week. By the way, our oem flywheels are 2 piece design, cannot be lightened, D16's works perfect. My custom exhaust is finished this week with high-flow cat and Magnaflow exhaust. When all that runs (next week) the head is coming off for p&p, resurfacing for higher compression and cam regrind, should be ready for april 9th, my birthday weekend, then a looong break-in for the clutch mostly, roughly 500 km., i'll take it easy for a week or so, play safe, and then it's off to the 1/4 mile.

2 Day old bump
So how's everyone?
How's the non-smoking FaZe?
Anyone else want to curse at the snow/rain that is expected this next week?
