Hwy 9 Fun Run!

Tony,
Call me too

Haha see I knew it was a matter of time before Steph started digging the Nor Cal Scene. Steph you can become the resident post ***** here as well but you'l have to compete with Kid and Natey

BTW Nate, How's that clutch line treating you. To be honest I think there may be some air still left in my line. I think it was just because we agitated it so much from pumping that it got swished around into really small bubbles so it was harder to remove. There is a bit more free play in the system than there was before at the beginning of pedal engagement. No leaks though, we should email corksport about the fitment. I think that was bulls***.

Care to englighten someone who hasn't yet installed their clutch line? Something I need to look out for?

What's wrong with the fitment, I'm waiting for mine from Corksport. Check TheMAN's post on his clutch line on http://www.clubprotege.com , he got a good one

Well Natey and I installed it and the bolts that lay in the flange are too big. When this happens the cut out where the clip slides in is too low and the clips can't be put on. Natey and I just used a cut off wheel to grind down the bolt a little which worked out fine.

Also when bleeding the system things to look out for:
1)Before pumping put on the black cap to the brake fluid reservior. This will induce a positive pressure that pumps out the air bubbles. If you don't the fluid will just move back and forth in the bleed tube
2)Bleed the stock line before taking it off-Nate will attest to this
3)Don't work in gravel and don't lose s*** in the fan
4)To close the line leave it barely open and during a last press of the pedal close it the rest of the way. You know you did it right if right after the bleed valve is closed the pedal instantly goes from soft to hard

we had to bust out the dremmel and grind down the screws a little bit, but andrew's a genius and we slapped those puppies right in.

Mine feel exactly like before. I noticed that my fluid needed a little topping-off.
I'm just hoping my exhaust pipe doesnt burn my bumper.

 

[charles]

Oh yeah, I dremeled the clips on the struts and the car for my brake lines, they were a few MM too big

Charles your dog is ******' cool. Your dog and my dog should hang out sometime. His name is ricky.

Thank you! I love her so much. Unfortunately right now she is under the weather. She had her tooth removed this morning and is slowly recovering from the anesthesia. I think she's kinda spaced out -- she literally tried to eat my finger. That really hurt. She gave me a few baby kisses a few minutes ago though, so she's probably feeling a little better. It's obvious her stomach is pretty upset, though.

whew got home in like 13 mins. the force was with me in more ways than one

 

[UberCaff]

Jared, I'll give you $20 and some donuts and coffee for that turbo timer. I need one, please.

tony, are you going to HIN?

 

[MrFoggy]

tony, are you going to HIN?

Sho you right, Nukka! Kind of pissed I have to leave my car overnight, but I understand why they do it this way. It wold be crazy trying to get all those cars in on the day of the show.

Who else is gonna go?

 

[Roywhitep5]

are you going to stay there or get a ride home?

 

[MrFoggy]

are you going to stay there or get a ride home?

I'll probably have my buddy give me a ride home. Why? Need a ride back down?

 

[Roywhitep5]

yeah. luckily i was already planning to go to the show with my friend so i'll have a ride on sat

 

[MrFoggy]

Shouldn't be a problem.

 

[Natey]

If you guys want to park cars or even judge, let me know and I'll give you a contact number to hook it up. The only down side is you won't be able to work and show at the same event.
