      • I finally put the Brake booster and master cylinder in Shadow last week. I had to replace the front brake calipers too.
        I drove it all week and the engine light comes on when I'm at cruising speed (40 to 65 miles an hour). When I slow down the light goes off.
        I don't understand what that could be?? Remember, I replaced the manifold and down pipe and used the same oxygen sensor. The welder guy got it out of the old manifold by heating it up and screwing it out. Maybe by heating up the sensor, it damaged it.
        I also put a manifold gasket on and a down pipe gasket. I didn't use any gasket sealer cause I couldn't find any info to use it.
        Anybody know what it could be?

              I love the turn signal location on these too

              • I took out an after market Horn the previous owner installed, and hooked the original back up.

                • I hate living in the Northern states. . No vehicle is worth putting money into. After about 5 years off the lot rust begins.

                  • Just installed a Orange letter Tach. Cluster. I can see it much better. Getting old.
                    I have a Orange letter Intermittent wiper stalk, & Climate Control pod.
                    Now all I need is a Orange letter Light/Turn Signal stalk that will work on a '93.
                    If it don't fit, use a bigger hammer!

                    • Haven't been driving it recently. But getting the urge to drive it again.

                      a couple weeks ago it shredded a belt enough to trip the battery light, and ran until the battery died.

                      Back in fully working order, and thinking of giving it a spray can paintjob in the near future, and juggling the idea around about selling the B6, and getting a BP swap. Also would love to get the windows tinted.

                        • Going to be going to a shop and getting my windows tinted, will be nice before the summer heat really gets going, and should help the a/c immensely. Was able to get a groupon for a local shop that has a lifetime guarantee for a little over $100, and lots of happy customers. Can't wait!

                          • Cleaned overspray off the windshield with a clay bar. worked like a charm.

                              • Dropped off the Festy to get the windows tinted before work, and then picked it up after.

                                Gorgeous!





                                They said the windshield would have been extra, so I didn't get it done. Probably will at a later date though
