The Project Pad

Excellent, glad this bar is working for you guys . I'd have done the same thing, but the passenger side came in contact with a hard fuel line on my 20vt car.

There is some contact on my car as well... will be attempting to move slightly if not put in a rubber bushing of some kind

1. Hopefully by wacking the bar to bend it you didn't add any pre-load to the strut towers..
2. The fuel lines can be bent gently out of the way...
Car is looking good Casey!

Will check and adjust accordingly

wow...that looks REALLY good

Thanks Glug!

Well, the time has finally come... We've been given the boot. The shop is going to be torn down to build up some condos. Yet another move for my 200 whilst being unfinished. This makes the 3rd garage it has been in since being taken apart.

I have to admit - I really wondered why I kept dragging this around as I was moving it yesterday. It sure it pretty, but it's quite the burden right now. Oh well, maybe next year it'll be done? (said that 2 times now...)

I did wash it though since it was covered in shop grunge.



And it's new winter home

Oh come on man, I don't want to hear talk like that! You just forget how awesome its going to be behind the wheel of that thing! You know these cars are like no other to drive Especially with a big ole' turbo

Damn, those wheels look great on the 200. Better than the cars they came on from the factory, IMO.

I think the spark will be back once I have the exhaust mani welded and installed along with the intake mani...

Agreed on the wheels... almost like them more than my S4 wheels, but I think I like them both about the same once I space mine out

Thanks guys - the wheels I was unsure of when I picked them up, but they're growing on me. I was looking for a set of 18" avus like yours Chris, but I couldn't find them cheap enough - I really like how they look on the 200

Well, we t44 guys can't all look the same! We both like the S4 wheels and the Speedlines lol

I have AT Italia Riva's on mine, but just because I had them laying around. I did have fat 5s on it for a while. Those looked pimpy with the 255s all the way around. BBS LMs are still my favorite though. (with gold centers like the DTM cars)

I think we all like LM's on just about anything I do have a great picture of a v8q with them

I do want a set of LM's at some point..

B5 S4 wheels look nice too:


(yes, p-chopped)



Get this beauty running please!

c'mon c'mon c'mon!

I like the LM look as well :-)
