Thanks Lane! I agree
JohnKoaWood: I live in Arlington, and Cruised all around DC this weekend; after i was done working that is ... Went down to Old Town Alexandria, cruised up to and around Georgetown. Every weekend there are "Cars and Coffee" events in VA that have great turnouts. I go to them fairly often. We could certainly meet up there one morning then hit the roads!

Should be doing a TB / WP swap at another listers house this weekend on a newly acquired 924S, some electrical / mechanical work on another's 951, and attempting my seat redye this weekend... busy is my middle name these days!
One of these days I am going to block off a couple of days and do NOTHING!

Good to be busy!
Let me know if you guys ever need a mechanical hand; or even just another guy to stand around and make comments like: "Uhhh, your twisting that bolt the wrong way..."

I have done it a few times (read could almost do it in my sleep) but I know a few other listers who always enjoy learning new tasks!
I will keep you in the loop for this weekend!
Always a good time hanging out with listers, wrenching...

Just out of curriosity, why is everyone using a 275 in the rear?
I realize there is cost considderation, and fitment, but I didnt have all that many problems fitting my 295s..
18s, 245 front, 295 rear.. and this pic is before she was lowered the last time (sitting a bit higher right now without motor and having just installed Bilstein escort cup suspension..)
I rolled the front and rear fenders, and clearanced the inside of the rear fender wells, but after the clearancing had no rubbing issues with neutral rear camber!
I realize, this is WAY too much tire and wheel for an NA, but then the 245 I have on the rear 8.5 inch wheels of my NA is too much tire for the NA (but I like the stance)..
