Very nice looking ride Garret!

 

only in the Winnipeg thread will I see good old Deutsch!!



How's everyone doing ~ I haven't lurked in here in a couple weeks

 

Spring has sprung and mods are taking place. That's about all that's new lol

 

I just found another awesome place to get tires IN CANADA. For those who don't have connections like Jordan lol. Tire trends.com. It will be about the same for me to get my KDWs without any exchange rates or dealing with brokerage crap

 

really? nice ill check it out

 

the 225/40/18 kdw's are 206 cad.

thats 824 dollars.

 

That is correct. I know too rich for ur blood lol. But the shipping is less and you only pay 1 tax

 

You have to pay shipping and tax on top of that?

You also only pay one tax when shipping from the US to Canada. (Whatever discount tires added fee's say is completely wrong, you don't pay PST when bringing things into canada)

 

Just an FYI, my brother has BFG KDW's on his '01 Z24 (N-SRT4 wheels);
IIRC - They are noisy, and TERRIBLE in anything other than ideal traction;
He told me they can be down right frightening in wet conditions.

 

Well ya tires don't just fly to my house on their own lol. I paid both taxes on my TVS... Also when I worked out the cost from both discount tire and them it worked out the same price. Without the exchange rate so I would have to pay even more on top of that. Discount tire is free shipping but charge you $160 for brokerage, taxes blah blah blah.

 

Try running my stock pirellis in the rain lol. From the research I've done I've heard nothing but good things about them minus being noisier.

 

i still think the cheapest way to do it is ship it to the boarder.

regardless your money, not mine. lol

and remember there is a difference between the KDW's and KDW 2'S

 

Just do what you did with the TVS broker it yourself.

 

I believe regular KDWs have a different tread pattern

 

i think the ones on that canadian site are just KDW's not KDW's 2 but i didnt look very closely.

 

Jorden what are you doing with your trunk anyway?

 

fire.

 

Burning it?

 

lol no

 

are you replacing the spoiler or filling the holes and painting?

 

Holes filling and painting. i needs money first.

 

Well took my car to the dealership this morning, Roll pin has been sheared for a while. I tried replacing it myself but my **** that is a tight little spot. They are keeping it tonight because they ran out of time doing the power steering recall today.

Walk in to check things out and find a nice bunch of scratches on my driver door. ****.
They were just surface scratches hopefully wont see them after I detail it.
Hopefully I can rook them into warranty on my map sensor as well.

 

I had a gouge in my door one time and i called them on it right away. Needless to say they painted my door the next weekend.

What is a roll pin?

 

The shift linkage on top of the tranny has a roll pin in it. Its in the weighted knuckle on top of the transmission.
Symptoms of a sheared/broken roll pin: Sluggish shifter, popping out of 1st 3rd and 5th, and blocked feeling in shifter going into first. I have been pinching the two pieces of pin together with my fingers for the past couple weeks every night
