We just pulled into Telluride. Will post pics later. Beautiful here with over 70" base.

Matt, your legend is fixed forever, hell, even the import guys know who you are...I went with a friend of the family when he was having his WRX tuned the other day and two of the Suburu junkies knew you as MFW!! :shock:Quote:

well i R&R'ed the trans for a pilot bearing. Thanks Mitch.
i'm about to tackle cutting off my subframe connectors.
finished up my new radiator air box this morning.
last weekend i installed OEM headlamps for the April enduro.
So what is up with you and mitch cutting off the subs?Quote:

Same song, different verse, could be better, but it's always worse. Sounds like a broken record.Quote:

my point of reference is starting the race w/a full fuel load. so the first time you saw it, the car was out of gas due to a non-working fuel guage durring my first race weekend w/ a couple parts missing due to the wreck. , the 2nd time was less than half a tank.
and Adam - i've had you tell me numerous times your feelings on this issue - but no one asked you. however, i was asked why , and the above is my reasons. so who pulled your chain?
