Re: Building a AutoX SPG.

I wonder why the silver car is using super aeros those things are freaking heavy.... X'ing as in switching? :dunno: I'm not sure what you mean. You take the left front lower control arm bushing and holder and install it on the right rear lower control arm. Also the right front to the left rear. Ted...

I don't know why SAAB ever dropped the hatch backs, The 5 door hatch is the most useful body style ever. I hope that they a...

Re: So Leanne's car died...

I glad that you solved the problem. My wifes 9000 has had 2 fuel pump failures, both with full fuel tanks :-( This grassroots worked for me as a temp fix http://grassrootsmotorsports.com/tech-tips/37/ I hammered and reversed polarity, It was enough to get it home and burn off enough fuel to make the...

How much you got?

I've got a hand full of beer bottle caps, mostly yuengling and a couple samuel adams, and a bad 2.5 bar fpr. Will that cover it? :thumbsup:

Re: icerace 900 notchback

from what Stephen said, it sounds like you could be back in buisness with this thing with just an engine/gear box, fuel cell, and Q/R steering wheel. It would be a ringer for the GRM $2009 challenge too.

Re: Strongest Gearbox Possible

I am not an engineer, and I have a headache from reading this thread in one sitting. I think that I understand most of it though!

I was talking to a friend who runs a shop here in Keene, NH. He is into SAABs and actually keeps a small stock of C900 S&R-esque skid plates on hand. I think he had one or two in stock a few weeks ago and gets them built in a small run of two to four when he runs out. If anyone wants one, let m...

seriously, somebody please buy this so that I can't. If I had towing ability I would have played hookie from work today to go get it, regardless of the fact that I would have no place to put it when I got back home. I know Claude's older son, and I talked to him about the car today and he just put f...
