Thumbs up

Sat and read the whole thread at work this week (Fire Station). Of course Broadfield, you're the man; killer build. It's redefined "All in good time" for me. What's also impressive is the banter/OT discussion comment mileage you get between posts... or Spam Per Update, if you will. You start an inspired build, pick up some emerging market product ( e.g. fittings by becoming a dealer of XRP), parade it around on the Broadfield Variety Show, generate revenue from the sales of said product, in turn funding the build and more premier kit, inherently adding more value to your posts, generating more spam/juvenile commentary.

This thread would be a perpetual motion machine (and more entertaining than cold fusion) if we could only harness the power of comment spam...


Crashing a Broadfield BBQ is now on my Zilvia bucket list. +1 on scotch! It's like you've got the "Good Taste" cheatsheet of life. Cars, business, audio, beverage, patio coverings... I'm contacting The Glenlivet and letting them know I've got their "Most Interesting Man In The World" spokesperson found.

...also, let's hope that brake setup doesn't leak on your engine bay.

You probably already have it figured out but the trailblazer compressor has lines coming out of the top I believe so you won't have to worry about them hitting the frame. Fix your pix, love the build!

Yeah, I have C6, C5 and CTS-V compressors in my garage. One exits out the side, one exits out the back and the other exits like the Trailblazer... angled up and out the side. With that being said, none of them work the way I want. However, just last night I accidentally stumbled across the perfect setup/solution... although it's very expensive. So I'm excited to order it up once the funds allow.

As far as the images, the place where I host all of my pictures is moving its storage center to a completely different country. So for a month or so, some images will not be available while other images are linked to the incorrect file. Who knows once the files are back up if they will actually be correct and still the same link!?!

Nope, it's still sitting in my garage:



I got my MaxJax setup late in the fall and just received my transmission lift so I can hopefully start on the fabrication of a trans mount soon. I literally have not worked on the car in a year. I have been really busy promoting my new Broadfield Customs website, new Broadfield Customs Facebook page, sponsoring clusters to get my name out there and then the extra business that has come along with that. On top of that I do all of the finances, paying bills, billing clients for my wife's new business. I also got back into reef tanks in August... which is obviously taking up some of my spare time. I just need to get out in the garage and work on the damn thing

I had to notch the lower control arm and hammer the crap out of the upper inner wheel housing to make everything fit.... then of course the 25mm pull that I already had.
