  1. I would like to visit the region...maybe one day! The blue dome church is a Holy Virgin Russian Orthodox church whereas the Gold LEaf domed church is the St. Peter and Paul Ukrainian Orthodox. My family belongs to the catholic church of poles,German,Irish,Italian, and lithuanian dioceses. My great grandmother, grandmother, and great aunt on my dads side were from Czechoslovakia. They were Russian orthodox. The immigrated to the US in 1919 and left the remaining members of the family behind in the "old country". Consequently the remaining family were slaughtered by the nazis during WWII. My dad found all this out in the 1960s while serving in a Nike missile outfit in the US Army. To get the clearance the military background checked his Russian decent. It's pretty wild that at the height of the cold war info like that could be found in the soviet union.

    Thank you for the story, too interesting.

    Sorry about the remaining family.

  2. Thank you very much!

    Tooooooooo interesting for me.

    Of course nobody in Soviet Union wanted to speak about that project.

    KamAZ plant was built. And works.

    And nobody wanted to stain the great achivement of Socializm with any facts of American influence!

    I might see Mack trucks on a streets instead of KamAZes...

    My God!!!!!

    Head in hands....

    P.s. That city of Naberezhnle Chelney had a name of Brejnev (for some years after his death and until perestroyka).

  3. Thank you.

    Neat looking churches. All that nations you noted relate to Katholic religion that is a bit different from what is most usual in Russia. So you can note it as a difference of church architecture.

    I was in Lithuania this past summer and one more previous year.

    Like Baltic sea and pine forests. And the fact that most people there speaking Russian :)

  4. The cheapness of your carriers doesn't make happyness at all.

    There is the export company in Secaucus NJ 07094, they are ready to ship heavy stuff to me for $2.5 per kilo.

    And I haven't tested this well enough.

    My R has 5.02's so I might be interest to make it faster. Although I have them 2 pairs in 2 trucks plus the extra pair. And they are in 38000 Airride.

    There's also idea to convert my NR from 9.02's into those 5.02's but this could be realized with modifying the gearbox I haven't opened yet.

    So if you don't have much hectic about them I will try to turn out my plan in 2-3 monthes.

  5. About special tools you will need to turn off a big nut. So will need a socket and a pneumatc tool for the best. Everything else is ordinar.

    Although I'm in doubt about a parts value. There are inner cam, outer cam (cup) and peanuts. I bought inner cam and a set of nuts for R-model for about $270 (plus shipping). Outer cam is of a bigger size and how I remember was much worse. Of course you may revise your stuff and end up with partional exchange but don't hope hard about it.

  6. Oo! The translation is good enough.

    English has less variations of words so when you translate Russian words direct you have a result close to be correct.

    Of course I could understand everything but words corresponded to each other not good. Russian language to use is a real disaster. We have to study it 8 years for 1 lesson each day. So don't take it serious. You interested in and it was nice.

    I just read somewhere about languistical game when a group seats around a table and gives a frase from one to the next with translating and back translating each time. The last one related the result with the original.
