LionZoo,
I do it, a few times a week. I expreiment with it a lot. All you gotta do is:
a) Unscrew you shfit ****
b) Slide back the center console/cupholder/elbow rest top
c) Grab the leather shift boot and pull up

It'll pop right out. Then you'll need a phillips head screwdriver if you want to remove the ashtray unit.

Which road is that? And I like the Super Sexy Krispy Kreme Parking Lot Hanger Outers (rotary symbol) better than Master B8s. It just rolls off the tongue so much easier!

Then, when I got back to DC, it was 38! So, I kept letting air out until it was 32.5 all around. I'm going to try and check it again in a minute. The thing is, it's usually fine for about 15 minutes then it goes bliky-blink?! I found a reset method on here and will be trying that as well.

Hit me up sometime brah.
yeah, I ended up working extended hours on my day off, but I'm glad you got the springs on... I still have to install my flywheel/clutch, I'll let you know how that one goes. did the sensor reset work for you?

DJ,
Yeah. Weird thing. I waited till the tire was cool then put 32lbs all around. All I had to do was turn the key on the "on" position, then back off and waited 15min. Then, I drove around for 15-20min past 35mph.

Let me know how that clutch/flywheel install goes? If you need an extra, albiet somewhat incompetent, hand. I got your back! You have my cell #, yes? Because when I'm ready to do mine...I know I'ma hit you up! LOL.

Ever,
You sick bastard! Still trying to "outdo" me, huh? j/p. Looks good, main! But--uh. I think it's just Master B8's now?!

You going Friday? Hit me up.

Master B8's doesn't really fit. "Master Bay 8's" sounds better because we are in the bay area. Master B8's and Master Bay 8's is still pronounced the same.


Sach, Very nice pictures man. i wish you lived closer.
