I bought a rebuilt rack for my 850 back in 2012 from Rack Doctor. It's worked flawlessly ever since.

Started reassembling the interior over the weekend. 20220403_171928.jpg 20220403_174544.jpg 20220403_174556.jpg 20220405_200826.jpg And tonight, my manual pedal pack came in. Yay! 20220405_192518.jpg 20220405_192526.jpg 20220405_192532.jpg 20220405_192543.jpg 20220405_200739.jpg 20220405_200746.jpg ...

Make sure you get all the miscellaneous clutch bits like the master cylinder, fluid line, throwout bearing, etc.

They add up quick, and FCP won't even buy you dinner first.

Carjackers and auto thieves should be taken to remote wilderness areas, shot twice in the leg and left for dead.

If you put Columba’s on, there will alway be just one more thing to remember… Ha. I read somewhere that the Columbas might not fit the discs and calipers on my 99 T5. Someone posted that they were fine if you ground some fins of the calipers. Yeah, that was me. I put an FCP 302mm big brake kit on m...

Creepy news - a surgical doc at Johns Hopkins was car-jacked on the way to work last week, and was shot. He's fine, sent home already. Two cars tried to block him in on a residential street (sketchy neighborhood), he decided to drive away, they decided to shoot him three times. His own trauma team ...

What paint did you use on the calipers? Looks a lot more substantial than the Duplo? caliper paint I get here. Thanks for the offer on the rims Eddystone. It would be just a hassle to get them even if you had room in July on the way through. If abscate wants them he can use have them with my blessi...

I painted the calipers in Florida, which is where they spent about six years. The car's been in Virginia since then. This is what they look like tod...
