Default Emachine and the stress bar block party - show of hands please by COB Thursday

Here's the poop from the online ordering and pricing engine. For a run of 15 (whch they say may be 13 or may be 17) we are looking at ~ $25 per delivered to me. Figure on $30 or so per shipped to you. Per unit price goes up with a smaller volume. A run of 10 makes it $30 delivered to me. The sucky thing is quoted delivery time is 38 _business_ days. Please let me know by COB Thursday so I can place the order on Friday. I will ask for nothing in advance other than your word that you won't leave me feeling like a block head for being a trusting soul.

regards,

Mark

Default good show Watson! Cheaper than I "found" mine for to boot. Few days now into...

...my post-install and then full-Super-Blue-bleed and, yes, the feel is certainly better and darn near great. My "Big Reds" (993tt) set up in my UrS6 had slightly better pedal feel but I think that's attributed to the vacuum assist and nothing you can do about it. OE pads have a nice initial bite surprisingly (then fade quickly). You'll be thrilled, tho d'oh to "38 BD's" to get 'em.

Hey I can give you the list of *deadbeats* from the warranty GP last quarter to not GB with if you'd like heh heh 8-). There were 3-4 unfort.

Actually, I cannot - I lost my entire hard drive here Monday... d'oh. RELIEF: you've seen the last of //super //silly //senseless pics from me here for awhile. Guess they were just too JNR for my hard drive anymore...

Default Broham! 38 BD definitely sucks but not like HD crashes...

I'll see if they can expedite after I get a final count. I'm lookin' to trip up to Philly either the weekend of the 13th or the 20th but likely the 13th. Time is gonna be tight but I should be able to fly a wee bit higher North. Can you fly South a bit?

Default Which cars will it work with? Is a strut tower bar required?

Sorry for the dopey question, but I seem to recall in the earlier thread some mention of cars that had braces and those that didn't being relevant to the install. Am I on crack?
