That's funny you mention that John.

A few days ago i was watching Pimp my ride and I got this great idea: A grill in the hatch of my Trans Am.
Just think about it, a BBQ at every meet.

Meh Cars can be a pain in the **** some times bro, any hobby that brings pleasure can also bring pain A wise man recently told me when **** goes wrong, just slow down, dont stress and learn from it so it doesnt happen again, your bird will be good again in no time. Now, who the hell could have told me that

If you are referring to organizing our monthly meets, dude dont sweat it, pick a spot, pick a day, and put out that information. no matter what half will be happy, half will bitch, but you know what, we will all show up and have a good time regardless!

Cheer up. Just pick a time/place and screw any complaints. Crying is for bitches, ignore the whiners. It was nice meeting you & everyone else. Looking foward to my 2nd go-round, no matter where it is! And hopefully by then I'll have my new ECS bracket/tensioner and smaller head unit pulley installed. BOOST!!!

Sorry to hijack the b.s. thread with technical discussion, but can anyone of you a4 guys help me out? I've got a thread in the a4 section, but only performabuilt has responded. I need a Torque Converter that will be real tight, especially with my 2.73 gears, real easy on the tranny (i.e. not a lot of extra heat) and somewhat on the mild side (street tires) I was thinking of a yank ss3200 2.1str or maybe a vig 2400 or 2600? I want a 2800-3000rpm actual stall speed, but I don't want one of the cheap yank 2800 or 3000 that are 12", and from what I've heard you have to order vigilante converters small becasue they underrate the stall speed. Any suggestions? Just want to get into the blower's meaty range quick, but without an all-out drag strip converter b/c I want to keep my street tires.

How about this?. We all pick a saturday and a few designated drivers and hit up a bar with a few pool tables and drown our problems with some booze.

NEFL drinking meet. We all have problems we need to forget about, I know I do. So let's make this happen.
