    05/06 seats for office chairs

    I made one out of a Porsche Turbo sports seat. It is alot harder than it looks to be because of mounting of the seat to the frame of the chair. I had a couple of close calls of the seat coming loose with no notice and almost ended up on the floor. Still have it (about 2 feet behind where I'm...

    Jacking/Lifting points

    When I did this recently, I used the yellow circles in the picture above. I knew I was in the right place when I reached under the car and felt the hole.

    Preemptive Maintenance Tip - Shifter Cables

    Just zipped up mine this morning. For those who are having trouble locating the cables from the close up pictures in this thread (I did), they are located off the rear of the engine in the middle. You can do all the zip tieing from the top of the car, and I found it easier to do it from the...

    New Batch of 10 sets of Ahlman Performance Ohlins TTX Coilovers to Purchase

    I have always added the best value mods first, it is easier to fit within budget, but opinions differ On settings, for me it has been about road quality, our roads here are decent so it is set more firm. But that is the best thing about adjustable systems....you're not stuck with one setting...

    New Batch of 10 sets of Ahlman Performance Ohlins TTX Coilovers to Purchase

    North Carolina GTs? Hoping to connect... Following since '05!

    Nice to see you here again. Would you have room for a lift? As far as a no cost option, maybe you could trade some drive miles in exchange for storage at a neighbor's house that you are friends with. Have no idea about how museums are set up, and wouldn't trust a dealer. I think a wrap is OK...

    New Batch of 10 sets of Ahlman Performance Ohlins TTX Coilovers to Purchase

    Agreed, even though I have another brand.....it is one of the best mods to do. Pair that with modern Bridgestone rubber the car handles better with more grip than you thought possible. Even if you aren't even on the fence.....jump over the damn thing and get this done.
