TMI, right?! That site has become way too bloated of late with all those threads. I saw a post where CATERHAM could not find something he had posted earlier so he could reference what he had already said on a subject. No way to search the site unless you join to login so they end up with too many new ppl on there methinks.

LOL.

What?? You did not go with the tried and true German Castrol...."GC"?? I saw a recent post where Castrol has a new 0W-40 made in Belguim so, they now have a "BC" designation to refer to in the posts! Thus, I might have to try the BC 0W-40 in the VW CC cause the HTHS viscosity meets the new European manufacturer specifications on the new ILSAC GF-5 and API SN industry specification oil better than the current EM "Exxon/Mobil" 0W-40!!! Ugh!!

Yeah, @johatan25, you got to use a "decoder ring" to figure out what they are talking about on that website!!!

Anyway, check this out: http://www.bobistheoilguy.com/motor-oil-101/

Its a long read but, if you are interested in some of the science regarding engine lubrication, terminology, misconceptions and differences in motor oils, it's good stuff. FYI.

BTW, I will be at the shop this weekend working on the race car, so if any of you that wanted tuning for the deal price want to swing by, thats fine, just let me know

Wait your out of stock already? Can't we order one at the GB price?

Yes you still can, and no I'm not quite out yet. I have had lots of folks say they we're coming by, but none showed up yet. Sooooo I still have three in stock, and 50 on order. If you don't get here in time to get one of the cables I have in stock, I will be happy to let you pre purchase one of the 50. They will be here sometime in the next few weeks

In the meanwhile, I'll load your file here, so you can enjoy your car till then. Fair enough?

I'm sure you can, he just can't guarantee you the cable right away if you wanted it.

Ricepuddin · 02-13-2013, 02:34 PM

I have a cable if someone needs to use it, it'll just have to be when I am in town
