Is this a Gt or GT-S. Stick or Auto?

I got dibs on the first ride!

:-) It's an automatic 1986 5-litre 928S ... I'm thinking this setup will cause Shane to have to rethink his puny 9-in rear tyres .... My supercharger is in the mail, too .. this weekend I have decided to bring my n/a S4 5spd. I'm sure Shane will relish kicking my (up till now) faster a$$.

When I got divorced I came within 2 inches of signing on an old carriage house. It was a 4-car garage with a tiny living space on top. Basically enough room up there for one tiny bedroom, and another shared kitchenette/living area. And one toilet, no shower, no bath. Hmmm ..... almost did it :-) ..... but one drawback (other than no way to bathe) was the drop to the waterside right opposite the road which runs right up against the house....... not good for getting 4 cars in and out, and nowhere for the several busty girlies I was planning on hanging out with, to park. Well, in retrospect, that last concern seems like it was unfonded, for now

I'll be leaving my place same time, will get on I-5 from Arlington about 3:30am, and will have my cheapie FRS on channel 1 if anyone is around and willing to give a warning shot before I get run over.

Not to worry Brian, your boost enhancer is on its way!

My wife tells me that the State Patrol was out in full force this morning on I-5 up around Burlington this morning.......so.....be ready.

Yep, watch out for those State Patrol guys around Burlington - they pulled all 3 of us over for speeding last September...... but we beat the rap on all 3!!!! Just a hassle though. They used instant on laser too, so even a sqawk on the Bel 985 was too late.

Woohoo, made it in safe and sound, no tickets even though we were cruising at 90mph a large portion of the way .

Kamloops Chevron screwed me, either that or Chevron 94 sucks... getting light audible knock at friggin' 14psi!

Man, at sea level, my boost controller needs full reprogramming. Air fuel's ok, did some tuning on the highway, jsut boost level is all over the place lol.

my coolant expansion tank developed a hairline crack and is leaking when under high pressure. it's just a small drip so shouldn't be too bad. i'll put some epoxy on it as a temporary fix and i'll be there. new expansion tank already ordered but won't be here till next week.

just in case anyone might wonder why i'm not driving at high rpm's.
