The money pit!

[Pillow]

I feel like a chump!

Two Porsche bolts = $60.90 USD!

Well they are very specialized eccentric bolts for the control arms, but still jesss o flip!

Just got the gas tank "unpainted"/acid dipped = 50
tank sealer = 25
AN fuel lines = 80ish

Weld oil cooler brackets (AL weld which I cannot do) = 50

Oh the horror!!!!

This is a small example of the $... The motor stuff I ordered in the last week is another nightmare of over $700! ARG!

Just venting, but I am just so impatient... Man I want to be done already!

GLF!,

Three years working on car.

Over six thousand dollars spent.

Car still sitting on jackstands. Priceless........:silly:

Pillow, I know its very frustrating at time. Hang in there buddy :)


What even more frustrating is paying someone top dollar to do quality work and having to go back there multiplie times to get it done right. :(

Time to put some control arms in :)

Hopefully a more gleeful post later tonight! LOL

"Patience grasshopper"

Thanks,

if not, you can always come over and maybe putting mine in will make you happier. :D

good luck and take some pics for us.

...at least you have arms to put on.:p

[Pillow]

One arm in! :)

The wheels fit as well, which as some of you know was a big concern for me. Granted for a splittie the 15x7 52.3 offset is about all it will take with a 205/65R15 tire. Actually you can go back deeper just not outwards as the tire would rub the fender.

Need to come up with an e-brake solution here quick though...

Also the darn expensive bolts are wrong after all!!! They are for a late 944 AL arms not the early steal ones. Back to the store!

A good day though. Zen let me know if you need a hand one day!

[Pillow]

2 arms in :)

And a tranny in!


Now I slow down until I can think of a few solutions. :(
