HEY!!!!!

Wheres TJ's "Trick Pro" shop at. I am going to swing by to have him look at my motor tonight.

Can someone tell me how to get there from 95 and Wickham?

D

Take the Eau Gallie off of the 95. Turn South (right) onto Wickham. Drive about 1.5-2 miles and you'll be turning right (East) onto Ellis. You'll be driving past 4-5 long, skinny warehouse type buildings on the left. Trick Pro is in the last one. Look for the sign.

You can take Wickham off of the 95 but you'll be increasing your driving time by quite a bit. If you do go that way, just take wickham all the way to Ellis.

Ahhh, nevermind, I thought you were talking about the 99 GT wheels.

No Problem. I thought we might have been on different pages and I didn't wish to offend.

So I'm out last night trying to pick up a tire plug, Discount is sold out, and I go to Pep Boys. Pep Boys closes at 8 PM? WTF is that? That company continues to dissapoint me.

What Discount did you go to? The one I work at has plenty.

8:00??? I used to go there for nothing else but the military discount but lately, everything I've gone there for is not in stock. "But we can order it!" they tell me. Last time I told them if they didn't have so much neon, fake carbon fiber, and aluminum wings, they might have some more storage space. "You could keep extra master cylinders right there by the 'NOS' floor mats!" They didn't see the humor in it like I did.

Blackmagic would be proud. I've finally started calling discount first.

Damnit, I've got those pics taken concerning the affect of spacers on bump travel Tooler but need to resize them...

I went to the Discount on 192 by checkers. Which one do you work at?

Prolly of no help now, but Wal-mart carries tire plugging kits and just the plugs.

[vent mode]

Arrrggghhhh!!! As many of you know, the wife and I have been looking at buying a house. We've been looking for several weeks and yesterday went out with the realtor to look at some of the ones we wanted to see more of. Well by the end of the day we had two we relly liked. We went home, talked about it and decided on one. We call our broker up this morning and he calls up the lister to make sure it's still available. It wasn't. It sold this morning or late yesterday. Arrrggghhhh!!!

This crap is frustrating.

BTW guys, I'll be swimming in the Arctic Ocean next week. How about y'all?

baglock1 · Jul 11, 2003

Okay, got some pics resized...

This first one is with all three spacers above the spherical bearing. In this position, you can see that the strut will be able to travel farther up towards the cc plate before the strut shaft bottoms out inside the strut.

In the second pic, all three spacers are below the spherical bearing. While it may look like there is actually more room, when it's installed the CC plate and Strut will be the same distance apart as that distance is controlled by the spring. The strut shaft will sit deeper in the strut body and will therefore bottom out sooner resulting in less bump travel. When it bottoms out, the force will be transmitted directly to the cc plate and fender well. Bad mojo right there.

I think it would be a bit cold for me.

I'll be in my pool. Maybe I will throw in some bags of ice.

Yea, or you could put those crappy Steeda subframes in the freezer for a few hours, then chuck them in the pool. Those would work great.
Plus they would sink, so now you don't have to worry about them taking up space anywhere else.

Daytona restaurants

Can someone recommend a good restaurant in the Daytona area? My girlfriend is taking me out to dinner and to the symphony orchestra in Daytona for my birthday (which isn't until August 21, when I'll be back in Atlanta). I'd like somewhere that's nice but not too expensive because I don't want her to have to pay a lot. Any type of food is good. If there's something near the auditorium, that'd be great.

There is a Shells Restaurant on A1A (N. Atlantic Ave.) less than mile from the Ocean Center if that is where your going. It is on the west side of the road.

tooler · Jul 14, 2003

I forgot to mention that it's the Peabody Auditorium. Is that the Ocean Center? So head north from that mapped location for a mile?
