Good Thursday Morning all. 2 1/2" of rain yesterday here at the house. :bowrofl: Cold front came in last night so today's high is just 67* with a 30% of rain. Hopefully this is a sign of things to come weather wise. We have not had a winter here in Austin for quite some time. But this being 2020 I should be careful what I wish for. :ugh2: Have a good one guys. Stay Safe, Stay Positive and Keep Washing Those Hands. :tup:

:hello:

I'z up. :yawn:

I'z tired. :yawn:

:icon14:

:iagree:Me too.

And, good morning everyone!:hello:

Morning all, happy Friday's eve.

Bagging the garage expansion possibilities. Apparently the cost of materials in my area is up over 40% since COVID hit due to short supply, and the end result is that the quotes I've gotten have been enough to buy me a new house with an intact garage (first guy came back at $100/sq foot, more than I paid for my house! Complimentary meal wasn't even included after the sodomy). Looks like I'm repairing what I've got with a few of my brothers. We did locate a guy who will do the excavation work pretty reasonably, and block work is easy enough albeit tedious. Work starts the 19th.

This is always good for a chuckle.

:gtfo2: with that shít :shakes head:

I like driving my cars year round. Don't be bringing that winter bs around here.

**** yeah, Im playing the long game... palm trees around lake michigan and the South gets winter! :rock:

It was 36f this morning.

Susan's Versa started making a really loud and obnoxious sound the other day. Pretty sure she has an exhaust leak up front somewhere. Slight vibration in the gas pedal, sounds like utter garbage when any input is given, and sounds like a fart can in general.

Happy Thursday everyone :hello:

Grandpa is coming into town today and tomorrow to visit a couple of assisted living facilities. We are quite familiar with them as we provided fire and life safety consulting throughout construction on both facilities :tup:

That's not funny :mad:

gym shorts and a t-shirt for me. I was nice and comfy sleeping on top of the blankets last night. I missed the cold.

I left KC with temps in the 90s.... I get home to mid 50s and rain...:shakes head::shakes head:

It's raining now and will probably continue into the weekend.....:eekdance:



Farmer's Almanac sez we gonna get some nasty winter this year......awwwww chit, here comes the October snow........:owned:

They use a doughnut gasket at the cat/midpipe joint. The bolts have springs that keep things sealed while letting things move a bit. Just throw new bolts/springs and a gasket on it.

If it has the 1.8 this is what you need

The Walker 36454 is the full bolt and spring kit.

Make sure the gasket is for cat/midpipe as the midpipe to muffler is a different size.

$12 and an hour under it you should be good to go.

Austin temp average for the year doesn't change more than 1 degree for pretty much the last 100 years. So when we have hotter than hell summers, we get pretty cold winters to make up the temp difference. And when summers are mild, we get mild winters. I don't think we're going to see anything too crazy this year as summer hasn't been outrageous. Although we sometimes get some crazy winter weather even with a mild summer - in those years the winter is mostly very warm with a few weeks of crazy cold.

Someone needs to take Mike M. out back and beat him. WTH.... Guy is going to cost folks a ton of money with misinformation. My biggest challenge with my build has been to find reliable information. Everything is super top secret and hush hush. I have been getting bits and pieces. If he shows up in my thread I will post everything I know. If people get embarrassed/upset, so be it.

Much appreciated!! Ordering stuff for the 1.8 now.

Yea....... Mike is a bit of an azzhat. :shakes head:

He showed up in a thread about Mazworx and SOHO yesterday on FB, extolling the virtues of "his" product and the closed deck block he supplies. Elmo took him to school a bit, but not as much as you would have, and not as much as he deserves.

Oldest son outside of Bailey Co. has about a foot of snow on his porch.

Figured he was in bed with Bob every since the S/C thread.

Oh quite your damn whining!! The last time we had a significant amount of snow was in 2011. Besides when was the last time your car was running year round?? :rofl2:

Elmo told me that happened. Freaking idiot. The man with a 1000hp Z and no Dyno sheet. Someone asked me the other day about that. " You always post dyno sheets', Why is it that nobody else does"? The Mall crawler crowd can suck it.

He always jumps in bed with the dishonest dirtbags. Birds of a feather, flock together.

Accurate. He still talks up the wipple SC on fb periodically.

Look at what he did with GTM and Sam. He stuck with Sam until he was the last one, and Sam had no one else left to fvck over. :shakes head:

:bowrofl: :owned:

Howdy all!

:hello:

What drug you out from under a rock?

These dang fires. I had to squirrel away to find another rock!

Still at work. :ugh2:
