Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums Branches Southwest Next Get together? When?

10am is fine for me. Any kind of beer is good by me. I think we should also think about some grillables as well. I have a small charcoal grill we can use to cook some burgers and stuff if you guys are interested.

I'll post directions to my house later on this week. It's real easy, so don't worry.

I need to get around a bunch of Tours, Quick! I went car shopping this weekend and I need a bunch of convincing to stick with it. Things convincing me to shop:

1) The lack of parts for our car. Either I beef up the tranny or I expect to wait three months for a tranny when it does go.
2) The great deals out there right now. I'm gonna test drive a Cobra this week. 0% for 60 months, can't beat it.
3) Chris Hightowers growing frustration with the Turbo parts shortage and the annoying a-holes that keep bugging him about it. Plus I think there is probably more to the story. I've been on the "deposit" list and we don't seem to get any more info than anyone else so its hard to tell.
4) Checked out the Nissan Altima 3.5 and test drove an auto(thats all they had). Quite frankly it didn't feel like it had too much more than my Tour. And I REALLY didn't like the guage cluster in the Altima. Someone had just bought the last 6-speed Maxima SE or I would have tried one of those.

The S4 is still piushing my financial limits and I decided not to drive a WRX cause I know I'd never get past the looks of that thing.

Sorry for the ramble, see you Sat.

The 17th works for me.......Boulder is no problem....Thanx ALOT Alex! I can bring tools...Jacks...Compressor (I don't think it will fit in my tour though) and anything else we need. I have a access to alot of tools so what are everyones mods so we know what we need???
Derek is that Y-Pipe for sale?

Sure, Ill bring the M3. I just hit 57k miles today. I promise not to be cocky about what i drive. i am humbled by what you guys have done with your 'Tours. and to be honest i think the svt is a slightly better looking ride than my M3. Not to mention cheaper. you guys are going to see me having a hard time not slobbering on your cars. If you know anyone who is looking for a ST200/SVT dual honed upper intake manifold let me know. $225 never been installed. Mike

Sweet! Alex, Brad, Chad, Derek, Mike, Tony - it's a party!
Chad, jcboeckl claimed stake, but since my headers are taking a while I think he's looking elsewhere. I'll let you know.

Okay, a couple things:

First: We need a list of what everyone is planning to install so we know if we need anything special.

I'm not planning to do anything with my car so we'll use it for parts/food/beer runs.

Second: Since everyone is checking this thread here is my email address brantleyiii@earthlink.net I need all except Alex & Derek to send me an email including your screen name/real name and your phone number. I'm going to make a list and print it out for everyone so we can get ahold of each other. Thanks fellas.

OH BTW....PAGE TWO!!!

if my headers come in (please please please please), i'd like to install those. I may need a gasket or two. Alex might give me a head's up on that. If they aren't in, I'm just going to help others out.

M3Mike- I wish I knew you were selling that manifold. I just recieved one from BAT the other day.. :rolleyes:

It should be fun guys! I don't have much to install right now, as I already installed the manifold this weekend. The weather was too nice not to do it! I might have some brake stuff to do though if I can get everything I want ordered in time.

Man it's been a long time since I have had time to check out the forums. Teaching and coaching have really kept me busy this year. My football team is in the 4A state playoffs. We play our first round game on Saturday Nov. 10 at Pueblo South. If we win, I will have another game on the 17th. If we lose (knock on wood) I would love to get together with you guys. I feel like I am losing touch with the CEG now that I don't have any internet access at home. If I can make it up to Boulder, I can bring just about any tool that people need. Just post a note letting me know what to bring. I will post again after our playoff game and let you guys know for sure if I can come up or not.

Sounds pretty good.

I'm pretty much modded out, at least for this year, but i'll stop by for moral support.
