But one of the things that drives this forum is the sharing of information - there is a ton of information about the car out there but very little information on this site about fabricating your own goodies. unfortunantly, I've learned, the pay off (financial, emotional, positive reinforcement) is usually and historically extremely low. that's why guys like sparkie/timz/carlos/gregd/hakentt (haha) don't come here to share anything. hell, thats why I dont share anything. There is no payoff. There really is no point. If my payoff is a good warm fuzzy, that's all that matters to me anymore.
I appreciate your hard work and intelligence to problem solve on your own... it's a skill that is seemingly harder to come by. I just thought the replys in this thread were a little silly.
