Well gents, busy busy...done travelling and building for a bit; back at house projects now I am done fiddling w the TA....ah hem 637hp; 680 tq.....I am in disbelief on how perfect things are comin together. New wheels come in after last massive failure on sellers part, and she will be fully in-tact.

 

Good to hear, Erik. Will have to get a group together soon.

 

Yeah surgery today means Im not doin **** or going anywhere bc all my cars require a bit too much input lol...on that note, buying new company Car soon....hint another caddy and pretty certain a V will be in its moniker

 

awesome. thats a lot of HP


wish things were coming together in a positive way for me.. I am in the thick of it now, no light at the end of the tunnel...

at least my 500 buck, new-to-me trans is in and seems to mechanically sound. no time to wash the darn thing or even put some of the trim panels back in place. still rolling around with a 12mm ratchet in the car... have a big brake kit for me evo collecting dust for a month now.

 

Damn, Aaron. I wish I could come over and clean your cars just to know what they look like.

Farming keeping you up 20 hours a day again?

 

I could use that BBK...lol minus the surgery today I could moonlight farmhand to work it off
I desperately need these new wheels to get this power down, but w surgery I am confined to the bachelor pad for few.

 

Get some rest and I hope ya heal fast.

 

Thx bud, sorry I didnt cc ya on the group sms...side note heres a blast of things to come.

I know some here would appreciate the effort, omfg 19x14's rear 19x11 fronts ...i will be running a new 17x11 & 17x9 for ultimate sexiness lol whole build is killer but ending is the true $ shot

Sigh.... Is it winter yet....

 

so good news my car might be started for the first time on Thursday. I will video it and post it here or on the FB page. Didn't hit my first 2 goal dates so im not really getting my hope up Ron@RS had a family emergency so he wont be back till Thursday. I will be driving around like crazy to brake the motor in ASAP lol so I can get a final tune on it.

 

Nice Dan!!! hope you get the numbers you're looking for

 

Have you been outside today?

 

I give that statement 200 thumbs down. (couldn't find a thumbs down icon, so just think of that thumbs up as the inverse.....thumbs dowwwwwn).

 

Le sigh..
clutch is going. Second gear is topping out at 60 instead of 67.
**** dual mass flywheels.

 

lol HR problems... J/k The DE tops out at 60 mph in 2nd, sucks about the clutch but time for an upgrade

 

Yea but that's not why.. Worst summer for me by far this year.. Can't even really enjoy it, Z is out of commission, bike is obviously out of commission hell I'm finding myself looking on craigslist for a snowmobile..

and Jotham you have to look harder

yes there is 200 of them...

 

Yeah, yeah...
No upgrade allowed
Have to keep with the oe/stock system to keep in the rule set.

****ing new dual mass flywheel is costing me a nut.

 

I won't tell anyone

 

What clutch I don't see an aftermarket clutch.

 

Car started but its way way ruff I gave it a little gas and it died. Talking to Ron and he hopes to have it completely tuned by end of next week. I am still pissed about being blindsided by the bill. Almost makes me wish I went to DB instead at least they were upfront with the *** rape cost, not saying we can do it for $5,000 and then give me a $11,000 bill that doesn't even include tuning charge....UGH. Over 2 months car still isn't done $6,000 over what they said and its been back and forth to their storage garage more times than i can count.
