I found a sweet 13 volt power supply on clearance today at radio shack... Set up a bunch of old car stereo stuff... Think im going to make a legit system for my dining room. It's got me all excited for some reason.
I have an old sony home theater system I purchased a little bit at a time around Y2k its held up well and still sounds good. When I bought it I lived in a tiny little dorm room, it was about as overkill as it could be...
I posted this in the home improvement thread when I first started it...
Here is one I did built in my tv holder in the corner of my living room. Replaced Windows and redid the trim with floating shelves.
Yea intimidating is fun. You would've liked my dads setups then. Our old house used to have a couple 2'x2'x4' speakers and bass cabinets.
He also used to have a recording studio so when we moved to PA, all of the audio equipment went to the garage. Nothing like having some professional quality audio in the garage
I just went to home dumpster for mdf... This is happening... Unfortunately I didnt think it through because im in the work truck and now I have strips of mdf crammed behind my bench seat... Thought it would fit better.
Removing these coilovers alone is kicking my scrawny butt. Thank god for air tools. Front struts are stuck in there until I can get another set of hands to pull down on the hub. Don't feel like taking out the upper control arm
I remember the pain in the *** removing my factory front suspension, I got so fed up with it I pulled out the grinder abd cut the spring in half...
Then putting it back in I think I needed my wife to help and my hand got stuck between the top plate and the fender at one point and my wife went inside and I had to yell and screem till she came back out and saved me.
Springs are always a pain to work with. Makes me thankful my previous owner took care of the car. None of the bolts are excessively rusty. Well they are now because I drive in the winter and it isn't garage kept
I got 2 18volt impacts last year, one is small and one is 1/2 inch they have been worth their weight in gold this year, I dont know how I ever did anything without them now... If they ever stop working I will replace them in a heart beat...
My car was not very well taken care of by the previous owner, he lived in Boston and used it as a commuter and weekend bumper car I think.
Then you swooped in to save that car's life. I did the opposite with mine. Mine was all nismo and other high end parts, well taken care of. Then I come in, daily drive it, double the mileage in 3 years, double the horsepower in 2 years, and redline it regularly.
Side note, Im working on another deal for a built long block. If I pick it up Im going to sell the built heads I have sitting in my closet in case you guys are interested.
You sure colton? Im willing to do a hell of a friends deal. They have $1800 farrea valve train kit and $1500 worth of port/polish work. A special friends price of $1k...
Went with my brother today to drop his mustang off for tuning, upgraded to an F1 blower, switching to e85. Looking for 800-900whp conservatively when its done.
Also picked up this pig, has a Kenne Bell blower on it. Supposedly has a rod knock (we couldn't hear it when we drove it). Just going to inspect it, possibly replace motor, then flip.
Damn your going to need to get yourself a car trailer pretty soon, you will save money in the long run...
Forgot to share the teaser stang pic... Its It's still in the body shop but its got some progress and is almost ready for paint... They already started painting the inside of the panels..
