Default (( Dam i miss my GS ))

i havent driven my baby for 1 week now and i feel so lost ......it sucks driving around my 91 integra everywhere . . .. .i dont get the "WOW" from other people checking out the ride LOL ...

i had some problems with my valves for my air suspension and one of my compressors crap't out on me so im re-doing pretty much my whole set up

new compressors/check valves/water traps/new and better valves /better mounting bracket for my air tank/new fittings/ NO teflon !! im only using the liquid stuff (for got the name)/new gauges/all valves are being reloacted into better posistions/ and alot of wiring is being redone.....

i cant wait till i get my baby back ......RIBS nah nah =)

RIBS LOL I want my baby back

I feel the same way when I don't drive my GS for a whole day. First chance I get I go out for a cruise. Like today, three high school kids in an 04 3 series were next to me and kept looking over. Then I slowed down and the kid in the back turns around and keeps looking . It sure does feel good driving the GS. Good luck with redoing your setup, I hope I can finally get all my leaks taken care of so I won't have to worry about them all the time.

I thought this was another "Good bye Club Lexus, I just sold my 2GS" thread. I know how you feel, my car was out of commission for almost a day and I just felt lost and incomplete.

2-3 weeks quoted by a shop could mean even longer...2-3 months
