Re: What did you do to your boss today?

Bought Kooks Boss 302 Side Pipes, will be interesting with T springs. Hope it sounds good with the MagnaFow catback system.

I ran over two objects today. First was a freaking truck tire carcass. Car in front of me ran it over, got it airborne and it slapped my bumper!! What a horrible sound it made. But thankfully, no broken parts, just additional rubber marks and possibly paint chips to go along with marks from track. Second object was a hubcap. Both times I was in moving traffic, no where to escape!

My worse fear is riding behind a truck on the highway and having it kick up a rock to hit and damage my windshield....had that happen to previous vehicles.

Washed and waxed. 21 car all shined up for my Chase for the Cup next weekend at Lime Rock and at VIR November 22 & 23. Setting camber caster and toe as well.

Just changed the oil. Getting ready to store the car for winter.

^that sucks. We in Florida are really looking forward to much cooler weather!

I installed my 3/4" exhaust discs today.

Re: What did you do to your boss today?

Removed the interior, can I remove the E-brake assembly by just unbolting? Or is there more to it?



To make room for these

Re: What did you do to your boss today?

Seats look great!! Not sure on the e-brake. I still have mine in the car.

Re: What did you do to your boss today?

Started removing some seam sealer and sound deadener



Also pulled the dash

Re: What did you do to your boss today?

Oh, now you guys are getting into the fun stuff

I removed the brake, but the cable will still poke through the (metal) grommet in the floor. I ended up cutting through the cable with a dremel/cutoff blade and then removing the cable but there may be more "elegant" ways of doing this.

Keep us all posted with your progress!!

BTW--make sure you use an exhaust fan when blowtorching that stuff, the fumes MUST be toxic. I just shoved a wal-mart box fan into the trunk compartment and opened the trunk lid.

The sound deadener comes off pretty easily but the seam sealer sucks.

Yes: I found that heating your BLADE will work better for the seam sealer. I used a "5-in-1" flooring tool for that, the blade is a little thicker.

Re: What did you do to your boss today?

A friend of mine picked up some chemical from lowe's and it apparently took the seam sealers off pretty well, off his e36. But you have to make sure you have good ventilation and a chemical mask.

Drew how much did that bucket of sealer weigh? Too much work for not much gain to me. Of course if I stop eating for a week I could save 25 lbs.

Re: What did you do to your boss today?

It's definitely not a huge weight savings mod, but I like the idea of doing it before the cage goes in and paint gets sprayed. And it should look a little nicer. GTs are supposed to have more sealer than Boss cars, correct?

Driver could lose a little here, too

Re: What did you do to your boss today?

Yeah mine was a premium too which is supposed to be even a little more. I get you with the paint looking better but I have enough to do without scraping body schutz. Looking at Tig welders for a certain winter mod.

I have been looking at TIG welders too. I think if I get one it will be from Eastwood. AC/DC and it goes on sale for $699 a lot.

Lowered it! BMR SP009 springs, and much improved look!.

Great minds think alike Mike. Didn't realize they went on sale. Probably Thanksgiving Sale next.
