Thinking about redesigning the start button on my Z. What do you think?

Thinking about it. I'll get a sneak preview of Casa de Rusty next week to see how everything is coming along!

And it's not like he's pouring a foundation on top of it so it's not a big deal. I retired as an inspector for the state of California. Utility trenches even had to done in lifts per state code even if they were backfilled with sand. And compaction tests were done on each lift.

I like how you ran your exhaust

Doesn't the exhaust burn your arm though?

That's how we do it too. But lifts are 12" each, we're not doing some BS 4" lifts and wasting a ton of time for nothing. Had testers try that before and they got shut down quick.

I was just using the pic for a little inspiration. I will probably keep my exhaust on the outside of the car.

I was an inspector for the state (schools to be exact), codes are real stringent compared to city codes. Completely ridiculous

I was thinking more along the lines of him having tail pipe sex with it.

I'm not surprised with the earthquakes. All compaction would have to be perfect to hold whatever is on it or in it

That's why I put it in a [SPOILER] tag. It is now fixed so your vagina won't hurt so bad anymore
