I am Brian, I just moved back from Virginia, lived there for the past 10.5 years. I am currently trolling around in a black 13 GLI with EUROSLUT down the rear wind screen. I also have a 93 Corrado SLC that I am restoring due to a server act of vandalism. I also have a 03 GLI 24v that I have put some work into. Waiting on a new control box for the air ride system, that is currently in Orchard Park. I am in the Geneva/ Canandaigua area, looking forward to meet some more of you guys. ]]> Introduce Yourself TANGO DOWN http://www.rocdubs.com/showthread.php?t=3312 I finally have a car again(e30 m3) http://www.rocdubs.com/showthread.php?t=3311&goto=newpost Sat, 18 May 2013 16:50:03 GMT Image: http://i1213.photobucket.com/albums/cc461/jaajavon/IMG_20130517_173836_zpsbdb0ea25.jpg ...

Didn't know where else to post this, so, uh, MY BAD. If so.

Anyway... I have pair of 42 Draft Design's 12.5mm 4x100 spacers on the front. It's rubbing the strut tube on the driver's side (lack of alignment? since not rubbing on passenger's side). Could also be from the conversion from 45 to 51mm struts ... I don't know. Point is, I need some extra distance. 20s are already in the back, square it'll be, I guess.

Also- very willing to trade/sell the 12.5s from the front- with about 200 yards of road on them. ]]> Tech Connect businessE30 http://www.rocdubs.com/showthread.php?t=3309 suggestions to take 2.slo for waterpump? http://www.rocdubs.com/showthread.php?t=3307&goto=newpost Wed, 15 May 2013 02:15:35 GMT waterpump bit the dust, changed tstat, no good.

We're having an open house / car show this sunday at the shop.

It's 10-6, rain or shine, food will be available after 12. Joe Bean Coffee in the morning, Hot Rosita's after 12, and Le Petite Poutine after 2!

Parking will be somewhat first come first serve, we have some auxilary and overflow parking for anyone who just wants to come hang out and needs a spot to park. We've got about 10 vendors coming, so look for the tents.

We'll be raffling an APR tune too, so if you're looking for that, here's a nice chance!

All cars are welcome, but I'm openly stating that if we start to get slammed early, it'll be preferential treatment for Euro cars. Still kinda business oriented.

We're taking donations for The DiMartino family from webster, who was at the Boston Marathon.. Pete, his GF, his sister Gina were watching his mom run it, from what became the blast site. They got beat up pretty bad, and are friends of ours, so we're helping out.

APR Sale pricing will be extended for one day only for orders placed that day. So if ya need something from them, and you missed the sale, we gotcha covered.

Dogs welcome! ]]> The Local Scene jframe http://www.rocdubs.com/showthread.php?t=3290 Stolen Bicycle http://www.rocdubs.com/showthread.php?t=3289&goto=newpost Tue, 30 Apr 2013 21:56:48 GMT Hey everyone, I know this is a long shot, but I figured it's worth giving it a shot. I was at Skylark last night (4-29) on South Union St and locked my bike up outside and came out a couple hours later and it was gone. It's a 2010 Blue Cannondale Caad9 5. If you happen to see one around, please let me know. I've run in to one other person that's had a similar bike so it's not too common of a bike.

Please let me know if you come across it. My number is 585-354-0368. Thanks in advance

Here's a picture of another bike that looks nearly identical to mine-

Received a stupid tint ticket and no front plate ticket last week by a state trooper in the city. Removed the tint and put on the front plate the same day, Drove over the NYST depot on Scottsville rd and asked if they could sign off on the ticket. Since it was in the city of rochester there is no such thing as a fixaticket.... Curious if anyone has had something similar. Do i pay the fine (if so what is it) or go to court and hope for a reduction in fine with proof of both the front plate on and no front tint? would like to send these in tomorrow. Much appreciated. ]]> Teh Random...
