But deffinatly look around at different tire reviews, and find something that fits what you want the car to do.

yup those look like the ones for me (fn01rc's). thanks so much for the info on the tires i appreciate it.. now i got a lotta reading to do... lol take care bro

I had the same thing happen to me. It was the hose that went from the firewall to the cylinder I believe. That was a B!tch to replace. Yeah...90+ degrees last July. No Fun. At least I got stuck on the way back. The car still leaks a bit...I'm not sure if I tightened it up enough. Oh well...thanks again Dave for helping to diagnose that,

Congratulations!

[TsunamiStealth]

Thank you

Been really busy as of late, before i got married blew out on my rear tire so i was on a donut while on my honeymoon, came back last monday night went straight to work. Here's the one nice problem, the house i bought the tennant has not moved out yet so we're staying at the Uncle dog's brother sister, ho's house (sanjay) which thankfully that I HELPED him out that one time i got a place to stay. Saturday I had to do my wife's oil in her civic that's been way over due and in the meantime i was waiting for the damn tire to get fixed(don't pay shit, my buddy works at J/T). So obviously by the time he was done it was like 7 pm and I had prior engagements with my wife to go north of the cheddar curtain to stay at my ma's summer house for saturday night because the uncle's brother's dog's cat's toe needed the apartment we are so lucky to use right now.

Congratulations Mark, Too bad you couldn't come out with us. How is the situation going with getting the other tennants out??

Is the closest AWD dyno still the one in River Forest ? Cripes, I went there when we had a dyno day a few years back, and I cant remember what the hell the name of it is. . .

Jamie I believe that the Porshe dealer in Highkand Park off of Rt. 41 (Porsche exchange) has a 4 wheel dyno. porschexchange There was a thread running around here about a dyno day there, but it never really got off the ground.
