      You know you like the word torque.

      My car has around 140 lbs/ft of tighten!

      It's just not the same

            Swapped to the Rpf1s at the course. Used new lugs that were the wrong size /spline and they sheered off the studs. Supposedly the bolts were just small enough to thread on.

                  I hate it when I forget to subscribe to a thread...

                  Im trying to find a certain thread that had all the part #s for the reinforcement pieces that are added to cabriolets... I think it was a project car thread with something that had a crazy swap under the hood.

                    It would be easier to find a cabby in the yard and chop out the strut braces. Pretty sure your thinking of a norway car. I think it was a touring with an m3 widebody that your thinking of.

                      I too have wanted to add the vert reinforcements to the front and rear.

                      I had the strut braces, but it would be cool having a comprehensive list of all retrofit applications

                        TGIF, heading to El Centro this morning to enjoy the heat and some time with my son. Those of you that are going to the SD picnic, I hope you have a great time and I'm sorry that I am going to miss this one.

                        Cheers,

                        Jim

                            LOL Mike! Temps are going to be in the low 100's but its a dry heat. ;) We will be hunting in the morning and late afternoon, the rest of the time we will be in air conditioned areas so it won't be too bad I hope.

                            Cheers,
