Just went to start my car for the first time in 3 months...

And it started up on the first crank.

I've been in Bahrain for the past 91 days. My car has been on jackstands in my garage the entire time with a full tank of 93 + 1-bottle of sea-foam engine treatment. I took it off the jackstands, recharged the battery...and it literally fired right up and drove on the first crank.

Thanks Todd K.

Thanks guys. I'm only back for one month of leave...then back to Bahrain for the remaining 8 months of my tour.

I just installed the wiper delete from Erik at Bumperplugs (looks much cleaner). And this coming week I'll install a JIC-Cross coil-over set-up I got from Alex at Sharkwerks. After that; new wheels, stereo, wing, mirrors, some interior CF components....and then more power.

I tried to order a wiper delete plug but for some kind of reason their site didn't accept my order using Paypal and they're not willing to accept my order directly, can anyone help me? (i.e. ordering for me and send it over to me..?)
