Anyone up for one last (at least for 2006) brunch at Hopsfrogs? I was thinking about 1100 this Sunday, 31 Dec as a New Years Eve event - particularly as I will not be out on the streets that evening!!

Nah, move the '89's J55s to LilRed and the Movits to the track car. Dump or sell the JL9s. Not all of us are made of money you know.

I'm speaking of the RED monoblock 4 piston setup for 88 to 1996 C4s that I bought for my track car which I sold to repair my engine.

If you know of anyone with an 88 to 1996 c4 looking for a 4 piston setup let me know.


lilred, "made of money!" you have a money tree behind your house!!!!!!

Sell your husband's BMW.. he can walk to work.

Try to drive the black car today if you have time. I would like to know what you think.

I know of a GS for sale in VA for $28k.... GS with black guts... Want it?

Really? Maybe you should come over to my house and show me where that tree is. I'll fertilize it! Then I'll take those 4 piston Movits off your hands.

As far as selling the Bimmer...you can tell him that while you're here searching for my money tree, I'm sure it would go over really well let me know how that works out for ya...

Of course I want the GS...but if you find that money tree, maybe I can have it! Does it have Z51? It MUST have Z51 for me to want it. I'd honestly rather have that GS with red guts and Z51 FS in FL for $25K though.

I'll try to get to the black vette today but can't promise anything. I'm behind on everything because of Christmas...

Yes, I know, I to you. I didn't get out of my appointment until 2ish and was on my way to dropping by your place...but when I saw you out in the GS, I figured that maybe you guys were done, so I went home.

I guess I'll get to see the new brakes tomorrow. How did everything go?

You all HAVE to see these monsterous brakes on Ben's C6 and pay close attention to the really clean wheel wells.

Rob: What time did you all finish? I figured you had another hour or so of bleeding the brakes after I left. I still have a picture or 2 of the install, i'll send them Tuesday evening.
