My junker is sitting on the same stands while I try to clean it enough to prevent snickers at Sunday's Parade Concours...

Andreas - want to fly up and start cleaning up the interior?

Making headway. DACH X-cat-pipes go on tomorrow. Wevos (black pillows)... check

Matt,
Would love to! Unfortunately I'm up to my eyeballs in my own cleaning madness (pics to come tomorrow...).

Matt,
You're nuts! Well, so am I. I just came in from the shop where the cleaning frenzy continues. I almost fell asleep under the car (which, with the AC stands, would be perfectly fine from a safety standpoint...).

Good night.

MY02s and MPSCs are on. So is the DACH cat x-pipe... with supercups - it's ear plug time (sounds great at WOT ). Took her for a brief shake down run tonight. Ride height is RS - 5mm, and the EVO uprights make a big difference. Now it's time to start working the little things (like cleaning all the gunk out of the floor pans) and pull out the headlight washing system. Oh, and apply zip ties in a few places .

Will post some pics this weekend.

She's coming along (beaucoup de zip ties). Still have the nasty interior steaming/acetone/gunk removal to do. Procrastinating.

RS sways, and CF hood/decklid coming next week .

Can't decide whether to do the custom puck shift rod mod or just order the Weltmeister kit with spherical bearings. Anyone had experience with the W-kit?

Anyway, here are some pics from tonight....

Matt, you should try using Goo-Gone too for the interior gunks and the "Carrera RS" residue in back. But you will need lots of bottles.

I think I want to get Supercups (well, next year). I was sold immediately after you started the car

Thx Joe, I'll check out if crappy tire has some.

I'm not going to worry about the Carrera script since the new CF deck will be on the car in about a week .

And yes, the supercups are ADDICTIVE!!

Might just leave the door panels off (RS pull straps on )....



Cut the upper camber plate bolts to length and installed the Perfect Power strut brace. Also flipped the left pillow/upper plate 180 degrees to the correct position (a lot of sweating and swearing involved).



Rennline pedal and track mat in. I've temporarily given up on removing adhesive from the floor pan....
