Without FTW. honestly not sure why everyone sweats the racks. To me the car looks so much better without them.

Phil, how the hell can your friend's choice of oil clog and blow out her cat. Unless there's horrendous blow-by/ring wear/PCV flow, how would a fluid in the crankcase create a cleanout in the airflow system of the engine?

Might be time to rethink that whole diagnosis.

reminds me of the game when you were a kid... can you spot the difference between the two pics?

btw, your car would look much better without those wheels... You should take them off and give them to me...

Yup is that unusual? 3 car heated garage with plumbing... I had the center door open for a bit but it was raining and chilly so I closed it

I think the roof rack adds a lot. Oh and we have a 3 car garage that's unusable. I'll post up a picture later. It's so depressing.
