Accord Problems, thanks! I don't remember you from long ago, but appreciate the feedback!
CPMike, always a pleasure! Love it when folks visit and give me some inspiration. It's been lacking lately due to COVID + money + stupid Audi taking too much $$$.

But..... as of Feb 1st I've been at the new job for 1 year & got promoted to Senior IT Administrator with a pay bump. So hopefully Sally will get some attention now,. Let's face it, it's all about the $$$ at this level haha.....
And as of yesterday I signed the offer letter for another new job, which is more important than this one & for even more $. So if I get it that will be amazing amazing news!

In regards to the calipers...... let's keep in mind if I paint them, the rears need to be painted too My initial thought was yes, paint them Arcadian Green to match the car as I really loved having the lips and skirts painted green to match the car. But I dunno...... Not sure yet. Will have to look at some photos. Someone said paint them black.... naa. & they wont' be banana yellow either, or red. Just too flashy for my liking...... i dunno. Maybe some photoshop is required..

Wow Man! It's been a couple years since I logged in...but I did today and this is the first thread I came looking for! So glad to see the cb is still going! Congrats on the recent IT promotion! I just hit 4 years as the IT Infrastructure manager last month. Still have my cb.. just dropped 5k on a complete refresh\rebuild so hopefully I will have it back in the next few weeks!

Appreciate all the love folks ! Not sure what to do with the ole' girl recently. When you get to this point it's all $$$ haha. I did put her together after having the seats out. She'll run fine, but she needs some cash ..........

- 8-9 years on a turbo setup = engine rebuild needed. All the signs are there. Probably just piston rings to be honest.
- Need new tires with better grip
- To make my 500HP goal I'll need a meth kit

And the rest are wishes... (carbon fiber hood, etc.)
