Only the cheaper models will be built in Mexico, just like they were in South Africa. Once you step up to a 335 or 340 now you get a German made car.

Agreed, tongue weight should be 10-15% of what your are towing.

I think he was just referring to cars, not total US exports.

And the Z’s, well it used to be that way, I’m not sure if anything changed.

This. KOH has a little bit of everything along the course, but they are going roughly half the distance of the Baja 1000 I believe.

I went to school in PA for 4 1/2 years and the laws regarding alcoholic beverages in that state drove me nuts. Just having to go to two different stores for the same shit was just crazy. On top of that, they scan your ID to tie it to the bottle of boos you buy. If a minor gets caught with a bottle of boos they will…

Some people are going to need this.

Haha, that was the first line I said to my friend. I just told him we should go, I’ll get tickets over-nighted from Japan.

F1 died when the V10 was put to pasture. Everything since then has been a joke, its supposed to be an unlimited class of run what you brung. There are so many rules now to keep it competitive its no different then any other spec-class racing.

I have completely given up on trying to stop my hardtop form leaking. I have an 09 and I replaced all the seals with no luck, I even used that think weather stripping you use for cabs and shit with no luck.. I had since new and just resorted to pulling out the carpet and plugs so it can just self drain 5 years ago.

That’s because the average American has no idea what they want. Or at least that’s what I made myself think so I can better fathom why people by such cars as the Pontiac Aztck or the Toyota Camery or the Civic or an old Ford probe or a...........(insert boring car).

No hes not, the focus RS starts in the low 30s. A few options here an there plus tax and registration and you are pushing 40K.

I use red loctite all the time on my waverunner and its really not that bad. That said they are rather large engine and exhuast bolts. If you are putting red on small bolts be ready to snap the heads if you ever try and take it out.

Easy. I started a project on my waverunner. Was just planning on sending the carbs to be rebuilt which is roughly $500. Well, then it turned into a broken power valve and needing to get a cylinder re-plated and a new piston. I’m now approaching $1,300 now and I’m not even finished. It escalated quickly to say the…

Don’t forget the old roll of duct tape with all kinds of shit stuck to the sides.

Hey...

Grease also works well. I prefer marine grease over anything else as they tend to have better water repelling properties.

On metal engine gaskets put a thin layer of grease on them when assembling to help seal them. It also keeps them in better condition so if you need to take it apart again you can normally reuse them for a second time.

This. It also saves the bearings of unnecessary stress by not having to use a shop press.

I just think Bosch provides the ECU itself along with the software to tune it. Audi/VW still needs to write the tune on their end. That said, the software they provided probably allowed them to write the backdoor go-arounds which is why some are trying to place blame on them.
