Good man. I know you don't see it as much at CSCS, since people are more concerned with burnt titanium tow hooks and purple LCAs there, but at CASC about 1/3 of them are wearing something. You have to wear long sleeves/pants anyway.

Hi everyone, like Churchill said, they couldn't fired a shareholder. there hv been too many issues I m having with my business partners there and I have made up a decision to move on.

As all of you know, I haven't been coming to this forum as frequent as before lately. Not because I got tired from the Z. But i heard weird things my partners was talking behind me while I was promoting our services here. Some wording he uses "garbage, useless, rubbish" or whatever. That's was almost 2 yrs ago anyways, and I decide to stop posting new thread here and see how well his marketing skills are.

Our cold war begins then and it finally ended on feb15 this yr. I m not the kinda guy that know how to express my own feelings. But I m confident enuf to let all you know, this splitting act has given me the biggest relief ever. Even though I lost quite a bit of money from this split, but I m not regretting and promise you all our new shop will def. provide faster and better service than before.

Now, I m setting up a new shop only couple minutes from my existing place. Here are more details.

Hi Ed,
I will stop by for the grand opening in April too bad you didn't scoop up Sashas shop in Brampton though that would have been much closer for me.

So i got my backlash checked...

it was 0.013 inches....

That is twice recommended value.

FML. Tooth contact looks good though.

Guy said it will be clunky and loud.

Said I need one more shim on the left side to try and get it down to .007 "

Don't know..... might just go by tooth contact and close it up.

Actually he said for a domestic that's totally normal.

He's rarely heard a spec of a LSD to be 0.004 to 0.007 inches except in a drag car.

The diff will sounds like grenades going off in your trunk anyway. In parking lots people outside of the car hear mine disengage.




Track opens in a 1 MONTH! If the weather holds good maybe even earlier. Lets go wait in the parking lot of TMP.

2nd half of the month is busy for me so I am going to try and get the car sorted by the end of next week so come April I can get out for a shakedown. Have a shop rented to get the brakes and oil done. Might also try and mount the splitter. Still have some sound deadening to "grind" out, interior paint, a bunch of wiring left, and swap belt (removing AC).

Anyone in Ontario carry motul gear oil in stock? Mike where did you order yours from? Some motorcycle place I think it was?

Yeah got all the motul fluids here.
http://www.canadasmotorcycle.ca/brands/motul

where did you get your new belt sans AC? Which one should I get because I want to take my AC out too.

I might need 2 or 3 shake down sessions at this rate. Wanted to have everything on before Mid April, but the dude at Z1 is having a lot of personal problems it seems.
