its been fun, but after 4.5 years and a lot of ups and downs, i'm burnt out. just kinda lost that flame for car stuff, including meets, etc. Still enjoy a nice car, and my next car will be all about out of the box handling and power, where i only upgrade some suspension stuff and wheels.

Oh, and AWD.


Def saw this coming...I know uve been debating... but it will b less headaches.. honestly i think h should get closd to what ur asking if u sell it as it sits now... people love thess cars..

On a side now the meets up here are weak at best..i doubt ill b attending any more. My boy has a bad *** grand national. We took.both cars out and cruised around for a few hours.. I dont think people.expected to those two cars together

It really won't matter. Higher octane won't hurt your engine but it might hurt your wallet. There is a couple gas station around town here that sell race gas too. Use to fill up my bike with it and loved and sweet it smelt too oh and don't be surprise if your exhaust tip turn white from the fumes. totally normal.

Does any one know where to buy varrstoen rims other than contacting the manufacturer or buying it from eBay. I looked at their website and their licensed dealers are all in Europe. I don't like buying things overseas I've had too many problems with over seas shipping.

Your kidding right? 100 octane in your engine that's rated for 91 octane? Your engine can't even burn it all, which will result in excessive carbon buildup. Not only that, Trev you have over 100k miles on your car, its NOT worth ittttttt!!!!!!

You can put 100 octane gas in your G. As long as it is unleaded. It won't hurt anything. But unless you are a boosted car, you won't really see much of a performance boost. Unless you've been running some crappy 91 octane, you may notice a small improvement.

On a NA car, 100 unleaded would be a good way to ensure you aren't running subpar gasoline, but that about it. I mixed in some 100 unleaded when I went racing last year and got my 14.0 quarter mile time.

later,
Curt

I believe so. All the ones we looked at had them. Never looked at a complete base model, but I would assume they would give you them lol

I highly recommend you not using wheel cleaners at all. The PH levels in all wheels cleaners say they're safe for chrome/polished wheels, but will never warranty/back that up.

All you want to use is water and if you have REALLY dirty wheels just use a little bit of car wash. ALWAYS dry your wheels or the PH levels and acidity will literally just eat at your wheel lips or stain them.
