haven't been around here for awhile. Had a lot go on lately. I never ended up getting the restaraunt like i was supposed to, it fell through, but i did however get another computer job after 2 years.. I start on the 22nd.
Also the SVT hit 100,000 miles the other day. Its still runnin strong but I have some things that need to be fixed. The car seems to be running real rich.
What I can't believe is that im still on the stock clutch after that many miles.

Mine has 113,000 miles. All original except Alternator and Front Wheel Bearings. Oh and this morning I went to take the Oil Cap off and it broke in my hand. I am very upset with the fact that there is no Camber/Caster adjustment on the front end. Especially with unidirectional tires, they just always start to cup on the inside edges. I am lucky if I can get 2 summers out of a set of S-03's. Sorry for the rant.

BAT is now offering a camber kit, iirc. I haven't read up on it enough to discover if people have been installing them and what their opinions are just yet.
